Circle Camps at Tapawingo is located at Camp Tapawingo in beautiful Sweden, ME. Volunteer counselors welcome campers into a safe and caring environment. They are encouraged to participate in traditional summer camp activities like canoeing, hiking, arts and crafts, landsports, swimming, tubing, singing, and much more! Our week-long program offers grieving children the opportunity to be with others who have experienced the death of a parent. While we are not a grief camp, volunteer grief facilitators and counselors are on hand to work with campers in small groups. During these times, campers are encouraged to share personal stories and emotions. Circle Camps is an amazing place where our campers feel comfortable sharing their grief stories and exploring their emotions about their person who died. It is a place where sorrow meets happiness.

Circle at Tapawingo offers our Leaders in Training program (a four-year program) to campers who are 15 - 18 years of age. If you are new to Circle Camps and want to apply for this program, please contact Sara at [email protected] or Hannah at [email protected].
