Camp Jonathan Registration Open

NEW MILFORD — New Milford Visiting Nurse Hospice will be offering Camp Jonathan to the community for the tenth year.

Camp Jonathan is a bereavement day camp for children ages 6 through 12 who have experienced the loss of a significant loved one through death. It provides a safe setting for children to express their grief and their emotions through art, dance, crafts, and music.

The camp will be held at St John’s Episcopal Church, on the green in New Milford, August 11–15.

The camp is free of charge, but advance registration and screening are required.

Camp Jonathan is sponsored by New Milford VNA Hospice, a member of Housatonic Shepaug United Way. For more information, call Mary Peitler at New Milford VNA, 860-354-2216.
