Aultman offering Camp Hope for grieving children

Aultman Grief Services will hold a one-day camp designed to help comfort grieving children on Saturday, May 31 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Camp Hope is open to grieving children age 5-11. The day camp will be held at Play-Action Plaza in the Hall of Fame Village in Canton.

Camp Hope provides each child with the ability to navigate the grieving process. Children tend to process grief through play, and Camp Hope provides a safe place to interact with other children who have experienced the death of a loved one.

The day will include outdoor activities, crafts, music and a petting zoo. Lunch and ice cream also will be included.

Camp Hope is free, but preregistration is required. To register, call Beth Wengerd at 330-479-4835. The deadline to register is May 16.
