Camp Pathways Volunteer Application

Thank-you for your interest in volunteering at Camp Pathways!!


Camp Pathways is a unique experience offered to grieving children ages 7-17 who have experienced the loss of a parent, sibling, or significant grandparent. Campers have the opportunity to both attend to their grief and have fun distractions from their grief. As a “Buddy” you will be paired with a camper of the same gender to support them in their journey throughout the weekend. You will have the opportunity to choose your preferred age group of campers to buddy.


Volunteering at Camp Pathways requires the ability to commit to being present for the entire camp weekend including overnights Friday, June 24-Sunday, June 26, 2022. You can expect your volunteer time to be completed no later than 2:00 pm on Sunday. Camp Pathways will take place at Camp Joy Outdoor Education Center in Warren County.
