The staff of the Scolnik Healing Center of Harbor Hospice are proud to be a part of Camp Courage. We are grateful for the many volunteers who help make camp a possibility!
For more than 30 years, Camp Courage, a program of Harbor Hospice has been a place where healing begins and friendships blossom. This June, over 30 campers and 20 dedicated volunteers came together at Pioneer Trails on Big Blue Lake for three unforgettable days of swimming, crafting, campfires, and heartfelt conversations.
Camp Courage isn’t just a camp—it’s a community where kids aged 6–14, all navigating the loss of a loved one, find comfort, connection, and courage.
Through facilitated sessions and one-on-one conversations, children at Camp Courage begin to understand they’re not alone in their grief. As one volunteer shared, "Camp Courage gives them a safe space to set down the emotional weight they've been carrying."
Thanks to the Harbor Hospice Foundation and generous supporters, families only pay a small $10 application fee—because every child deserves the chance to heal, regardless of cost.
Marking over 30 years of meaningful support and connection, Camp Courage continues to offer a place where kids facing loss can share, reflect, and grow. This summer carries that legacy forward—with quiet strength, open conversations, and the kind of care that lasts well beyond camp
