Camp Spirit Song is offered in partnership with the
SpiritWorks Foundation to give the gift of a camp experience to children
in Province III affected by the opioid substance use disorder of a
parent or other close loved one. The camp will be held August 11-16 at
the Claggett Center in Buckeystown, MD. This is the inaugural year of
Camp Spirit Song, and the first camp program of its kind on the east
coast, and we ask your prayers and support for our ministry this summer.
Camp provides children grades 4-8 with an opportunity to meet God through:
● the support of a Christian community
● fellowship with peers who share a common experience
● time to rest and play away from the distractions of everyday life
It is our mission to offer Camp Spirit Song at no cost to
campers' families.You can help make camp a reality for 40 campers this
year by sponsoring a camper. $1,000 covers the cost of one camper,
including room and board, program materials, and staff fees.
Individuals, parishes, and dioceses may donate directly toward camper
sponsorship. We have one camper scholarship covered by a parish in the
Diocese of Maryland, and look forward to many other donors getting in
touch with Claggett to support this camp.
