Sangre de Cristo Community Care to Host Free Kids’ Camp in La Junta on June 11

LA JUNTA, Colo. — Sangre de Cristo Community Care is once again offering a free Kids’ Camp for children grieving the loss of a loved one or someone close to them. The special one-day event will take place June 11, 2026, at Koshare Museum in La Junta.

Kids’ Camp is designed to give children a safe, supportive space where they can connect with other kids who understand their loss, while learning healthy coping skills through activities led by Sangre’s bereavement counselors. The day is centered on healing, hope, and fun.

Thanks to generous community donors, Kids’ Camp is completely free for families. Children attending will enjoy a free lunch, snacks, games, prizes, and a fun new addition this year — an epic bounce house.

The first five children who register will receive a special prize. In addition, everhttps://seconews.org/article/8662y child who attends will be entered to win a $100 Altitude Trampoline Park gift card.
