How do families apply for camp?
Interested families should reach out using the button below. Your family will be added to our “interested families” list. All interested families will receive a registration packet. In addition to completing the registration packet, each interested family will need to meet with the Camp Director to ensure that camp feels like a good fit. All family members who plan to attend CKK should be present for this meeting.

Can families return to CKK more than once?
In order to provide support to as many grieving families as possible, families are invited to return a maximum of 2 times. If an additional death occurs, we invite a family to return more than two times.

Is there a cost to attend CKK?
We request each family submit a $50 application fee. If the fee creates a financial hardship, we encourage families to request to be sponsored by their local support network, such as a school or church. Families may request a scholarship. Please indicate if you will be requesting a scholarship when you reach out with interest to attend.
