REGISTRATION STILL OPEN FOR VNA’S CAMP GOOD GRIEF

May 26, 2006 —Registration still is open for the Visiting Nurses Association of Venango County’s 11th annual Camp Good Grief for area young people who have experienced the death of a family member or friend.

The camp is set from 9 am to 8 pm Wednesday, June 14, at Singing Hills Girl Scout Camp near Two Mile Run County Park.

The camp for youths ages 5 to 18 is a therapeutic, fun experience in which campers learn more about grief, meet others who have had similar experiences, and learn how to grow beyond their losses.

Activities will include swimming, canoeing, hiking, a campfire, hands-on workshops, a memorial service, a candle lighting ceremony and more.
The camp registration fee is $10. Financial help is available upon request for families who need assistance in covering this expense.

Families can sign up campers or learn more by calling the VNA office, 814-678-1111. The registration deadline is Friday, June 2.
