Why I Still Go to Summer Camp

I volunteer at two camps during the summer, leading bead-making activities, and I’d like to shine a spotlight on both of them.

The Moyer Foundation’s Camp Erin program is the largest national bereavement program for kids and teens grieving the death of someone close to them. This is a cause incredibly close to my heart because I lost my father when I was a child. I wish I could have had the support network Camp Erin provides. It’s such an amazing feeling to know you are not alone in your grief.

Camp Dartmouth-Hitchcock is a one-week summer camp experience for children with rheumatic diseases. I grew up with Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis and went to this camp for a few years. This was the first place I went where I could meet other kids with Juvenile Arthritis and know I was not alone.

When I left Camp Dartmouth-Hitchcock every summer, all I really had were memories, a few trinkets from friends, and the t-shirts they would supply us with. I had nothing substantial to hold onto and I wanted to give campers an opportunity to leave with a piece of camp that they could use when they need a reminder that they are not alone.

I love both these communities and I think the work they do in uniting campers is incredibly powerful. The first time I went to “arthritis camp” was the first time I learned I was not alone and that I had people I could call on who would know exactly what I was going through.

Takes after Uncle Gaius in that she also finds a certain pleasure in fucking with the uber rich. tho in her case it’s more...swapping decanters and putting whoopee cushions skillfully underneath the lovely hand crafted chair upholstery.
