Camp Rainbow

Camp Rainbow is a grief retreat for children ages 5–12 years old who are grieving the death of a loved one. Camp Rainbow is a fun experience filled with activities focused on helping children find healthy and positive ways to deal with their loss. It is offered to children residing in Fredericksburg, Stafford, Spotsylvania, King George, and Caroline County at no cost to you.

Snacks and activities are provided.

Camp Rainbow activities include:

• Art Therapy
• Music Therapy
• Pet Therapy
• Remembrance Activities
• Canoeing
• Group Sharing
• Games
• Crafts
• Journaling

Camp Rainbow will be held on Sunday, October 5, 2025, from 9:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. at Mott’s Run Reservoir (6600 River Road, Fredericksburg, VA 22407). Parents and guardians are responsible for dropping off and picking up their children – we are unable to transport campers.

Due to the high volume of applications received, space is limited to a first-come, first-served basis with priority given to children who have not attended camp in the past and children who are involved in our ongoing programming. The application will open soon and will be due no later than September 26, 2025.
