Adult Retreat

For the Adults
ExCamps #FTA

 

A weekend retreat for adults to grieve, connect, and play
June 7-9, 2024
Camps Equinunk and Blue Ridge in Pennsylvania

 

This weekend will include many of the activities that make Experience Camps so special, like sharing circles, campfires, and other fun camp activities, plus authentic connection with your peers in a safe and supportive space.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

  • Time to slow down, share, and reflect more deeply on your grief.
  • Lots of laughs and time to play like a kid, surrounded by other adults who “get it” about grief.
  • Meaningful connection with other young-at-heart adults who have experienced the death of someone close to them.
  • Activities and workshops exploring how your experiences have shaped who you are, while gaining clarity and direction as you look towards the future. 
  • Campfires, yoga, an epic relay race…and more fun surprises.

WHO THIS EXPERIENCE IS FOR: 

  • Grieving adults who have experienced a death-loss.
  • Ages 21+
