Camp Good Mourning! is a free overnight weekend camp for Long Island children and teens ages 7 to 17 who are coping with the death of a parent, primary caregiver or sibling. Kids who lost a close extended family member who lived with them, like a grandparent, aunt or uncle, are welcome too. Camp runs in the spring and fall at Camp Quinipet on Shelter Island, a short ferry ride from Greenport or Sag Harbor, from Friday at 4pm to Sunday at 4pm. Campers get a real camp weekend, with a low ropes course, a gaga pit, fishing and basketball and volleyball courts, alongside support groups led by trained professionals, including mental health counselors, social workers, psychologists and grief specialists. Registered nurses are at camp around the clock. The camp is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and donors, grants and local businesses cover the cost, so it is free for families. Children can come back for more than one weekend, and families apply through the camper application on the camp's website.
