Camp Solace is a bereavement camp for children and teens (5-18) who have experienced the death of a loved one. Located on the beautiful North Shore of Lake Tahoe, Camp Solace provides a safe space of traditional camp activities, as well as, supports participants through the grieving process.
Activities aim at building trust and teamwork. Campers spend much of their time just being kids – swimming, kayaking, playing volleyball, making crafts and participating in group skits. In addition, Camp Solace attendees spend time writing in journals, sharing memories and memorabilia, camp fire, luminary ceremony and other reflective activities that symbolizes the memory of their deceased loved one.
