Camp Redwood

Albert and Ann Deshur JCC Rainbow Day Camp

Camp Redwood is for Children’s Wisconsin families who have experienced the death of a significant person in their lives. All family members, infant through adult, are invited to attend. Camp Redwood provides a balance of fun activities (sports, games, art, etc.) with grief education and projects that are age appropriate for each member of the family. Families will have the opportunity to have the camp experience while having access to modern comforts. Families sleep in a dorm like setting; each room has its own private bath. Our hope is the weekend's activities will help family members heal and connect with each other, find comfort in connecting with other grieving families and provide shared experiences that will support them in their grief journey in the days, months and years to come.

All adults attending the camp will need to complete and email the Camp Redwood waiver form to griefsupport@childrenswi.org prior to attending.
