Camp To Belong for Alexandra to spend time with her siblings, and the camp horses

Posted Jul 24, 2019
Alexandra was separated from her siblings when they were taken into foster care. Camp To Belong is a one week program that will reunite Alexandra with the brother and sister for nights of sharing cabin stories, roasting s'mores, swimming and fishing together, archery, a rock wall, etc. Campers are treated to dance parties, talent night, and a full scale carnival right at the camp. Alexandra is particularly excited about time in the schedule set aside for she and her siblings to care for, and ride, the camp ponies and horses. All campers are sibling sets who have been separated while in foster care, who understand and support each other. Camp To Belong will engage Alexandra and her siblings in making pillows and quilts that they will exchange and take with them to help each other remember one another after camp, and supports siblings in a birthday party where they can celebrate missed milestones.

Alexandra is 14 years old and lives in ME

Alexandra is an optimistic girl who adores nature, particularly if animals are involved. She has been separated from her siblings as a result of being taken into foster care but will be seeing them this summer at Camp To Belong Maine, which also means she will be able to spend some time with horses!
