Camper/Volunteer Registration 2024
Camp Erin is a FREE program for children and teens ages 6 - 17 who are grieving the death of someone close to them. Campers are accepted on a first come basis pending an interview with the camper and his adult caregiver(s). Space is listed and we encourage you to apply early.
Become a camper: We are so excited about this year's camp scheduled for the weekend of August 2 - 4 at Silver Cliff Ranch located near Buena Vista, Colorado. Camp Erin gives grieving youth, ages 6 - 17, an opportunity to share the weekend with kindred spirits who know the reality of experiencing the death of someone important in their lives. Camp Erin Denver provides our campers with a combination of traditional fun camp activities like barbecues, camp fires and s'mores with grief related activities. Imagine a phone booth in the woods where campers can "call" their person or sitting around a pool at dusk with lighted luminaries floating on it as each camper remembers their person. This year we welcome back percussionist, Josh Robinson, who will teach our campers drumming and help each camper create a drum of their own.
Campers who have had a previous experience at Camp Erin can attend again on a space available basis after first time campers are placed.
To apply for a child to attend Camp Erin Denver 2024, please click here for the camper application.
Become a volunteer: As a Camp Erin volunteer, you will have one of the most rewarding experiences you can imagine as you have the opportunity to companion our campers through this very amazing weekend. If you have volunteered with Camp Erin Denver in the past, you will still need to complete a volunteer application each year. If you are new to volunteering at Camp Erin Denver, you will be contacted by our Volunteer Director, Sara Chadil, to schedule an interview with you prior to camp. We background check ALL volunteers each year and EVERY volunteer will participate in our required volunteer training. You can apply to be a camp volunteer by clicking here
Parents and guardians often ask about volunteering when their child(ren) attend camp. For a variety of reasons, It is our policy that family members not volunteer at the same time that members of their family attend as campers. We would be happy to discuss this with you if you have questions.
Donations:
You can also donate to help make this program possible. We gratefully appreciate your financial support, as well as the contribution of supplies and services. To donate supplies and services, please contact us!
