Grundy organizations serving youth:
We are coordinating a pilot program called "Tween Mental Wellness Camp" for Grundy kids ages 11-14. Our dates are Monday, August 7th, through Thursday, August 10th, 2023. Camp will take place at Camp Shaw-Waw-Nas-See. Coach Adam Kotowski is designing the mental wellness activities and we will also be doing regular camp activities such as swimming, creek wading, campfire, art, and zip-line (hence the age 11 minimum).
We are accepting only campers referred by schools, agencies, and behavioral health professionals - please discuss this camp with potential campers and their parents before referring them and ask permission to share their child's information. Coach Adam's bio can be found here and the camp agenda can be viewed here.
The main wellness activities of camp will revolve around coping skills, communications, awareness, centering, mindfulness, and more. We will not be accepting campers with tendencies toward violence nor with behavioral diagnoses beyond the scope of this camp, such as bi-polar or schizophrenia. You are welcome to contact us to discuss further.
We are hiring a) daily activity coaches and b) overnight cabin counselors.
