The 2nd Annual Camp Fragile Hearts Grief Camp for children 7-17 dealing with loss, will be held at Camp Silver Beach YMCA, Saturday October 19th. Children can still be registered up until this Friday October 11th.

Based on the popular support group introduced by Hospice & Palliative Care of the Eastern Shore 6 years ago, the camp provides Eastern Shore children with resources and support, in dealing with issues arising from the loss of a parent or guardian, divorce, foster placement, military deployment, or incarceration.

The camp is free of charge, but registration is required, If you know a child who would benefit from the extra attention this program provides, please contact Hospice immediately to start the sign up process, or download forms from hpces.org and deliver them to Hospice on Market Street in Onancock.

Camp combines group activities with certified counselors, with the many resources of YMCA Camp Silver Beach. This includes kayaking, the alpine tower, scavenger hunts, and much more.

Questions can be directed to Mozella Francis or Faye Eller at 787-3310.

Again, deadline for free registration is this Friday October 11th.
