HNCO CAMP HOPE – WE ARE THE SEED PLANTERS

Camp Hope offers campers age 6-17 a variety of activities designed to develop coping skills, explore feelings and memorialize loved ones. It is the hope that campers begin to learn life skills that will benefit them through-out their life. We are the seed planters.

Campers have the opportunity to participate in physical activities such as zipline, high ropes, archery, mountain biking and swimming.

Grieving kids can feel alone and isolated in their grief. Camp Hope offers kids an environment where grieving kids can be kids and where loss is the norm, not the exception.
