FREE Family Retreat Weekends: Bleeding Disorders
Applications Are Now Open!
Come to Camp and experience the spirit and magic of Boggy Creek. Parents and guardians can relax and find needed support among other families dealing with similar challenges. Siblings can participate in all of the fun, hosted by our volunteers and staff.
During Family Retreat Weekends, we will offer campers and their families time to connect away from home and participate in some favorite Boggy Creek traditions, including cheering, singing, dancing, trying new things, and sharing kindness. Families will be able to choose their own adventure by visiting activities including boating and fishing, archery, woodshop, miniature golf, and relaxing on the dining hall porch.
Families are paired up with volunteer pals that act as hosts for the fun—greeting families upon arrival, showing them around Camp, hosting families at activity areas, playing with the children, helping the families with any needs that arise, and generally helping families to have the best experience possible.
Let’s get the process started.

Bereavement Camp With Cornerstone’s Kids Camp Bridges
Applications For This Session Are Closed
Camp Bridges is partnering with Camp Boggy Creek for a FREE Camp for children and teen bereavement held here at Camp Boggy Creek.
If your child or teen has experienced the loss of a loved one, then you may want to think about participating in our annual overnight bereavement Camp. There is nothing more important than reaching out to kids to promote the healing process. Camp will help campers deal with grief in a safe environment filled with compassion, understanding, empathy and fun to help promote the healing process.
Cornerstone Hospice has offered Camp Bridges for over 20 years, helping children ages 5 to 17 with a therapeutic and free Camp experience. We weave fun activities into an opportunity to share observations about the natural cycle of life and death. Camp Bridges offers the unique opportunity for grieving children to join together in a safe space where they can connect with other kids who are going through a similar experience.
• Children/teens between the ages of 5 to 17 who have experienced a significant loss.
• The lost loved one did not have to receive care from Cornerstone Hospice.
