Camp Firefly

 

 A place to remember. A place to heal.

 
Camp Firefly

Camp Firefly 2010 will be held from Friday, August 27 to Sunday, August 29 at Camp Matollionequay, Medford, NJ

For children who have lost a parent, sibling or other special person through death, Camp Firefly provides a special place to share feelings, to make new friends, and to find relief from grief.

Throughout the camp weekend, activities designed to help ease grief are combined with traditional fun camp experiences such as swimming, canoeing, cookouts, and arts-and-crafts.

The camp is fully staffed by professional counselors and trained volunteers.

 

 

Camp Firefly is held each summer at Camp Ockanickon, Medford, NJ.
