Mission Statement

Experience Camps are one-week camps for boys and girls who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling or primary caregiver. It's a place where kids can laugh, cry, play, create, remember the person who died, or forget the grief that weighs them down. It's a place where they can feel "normal", because everyone there has been through something similar and understands what it's like to lose someone important to them. It's a home away from home. And just about everyone will tell you..."It's the best week of the year".

Description

Founded in 2009, Experiene Camps blend counseling and grief therapy alongside traditional summer camp events and activities. Manitou Experience helps boys ages 11-16, build confidence, encourage laughter, and navigate their grief through friendship, teamwork, athletics, and the common bond of loss.
