Camp New Dawn, Hospice of Queen Anne’s (HQA’s) annual grief camp for children and teens who have experienced the death of a loved one, will take place from August 16-18 at Camp Pecometh near Centreville. The three-day overnight event provides the opportunity for campers to learn about and express grief with trained counselors and volunteers in a safe and natural environment. Caring and compassionate adults who are willing to commit to support one or two bereaved youths during the camp may apply to become a Camp New Dawn buddy. Applicants must be 21 years or older and need to complete buddy training on Saturday, August 13 at Hospice of Queen Anne’s. Buddies find the camp a rewarding and fulfilling experience that they ultimately carry with them for the rest of their lives.
