LAKE COUNTY – Lake Family Resource Center has announced that, thanks to the generosity of Lake County's service organizations, they are able to offer scholarships to help 30 more girls for this summer's All That Wellness Camp for girls.

Registration is open for girls 11 through 15 years of age for the camp, which takes place at Sutter Lakeside Hospital, June 25-29.

Some of the many “All That“ Camp topics will include the importance of friendship, communication skills, resilience, dealing with stress, handling grief and loss, respecting differences, making healthy choices, body image, exercise, dance and movement, Yoga, art, team building, honoring your spirit, journaling, healthy relationships and much more.

One day of the camp will include activities for moms, grandmothers, aunts, etc. and one day for dads, grandfathers, uncles … or whoever the significant adults are in the lives of the girls.

Girls 16 years of age and older will be able to earn community service hours by volunteering as camp counselors. Counselors be able to attend all of the sessions while mentoring the younger girls.

Participating with Lake Family Resource Center to bring this camp to the girls of Lake County are Sutter Lakeside Hospital Wellness Center, Lake County Office of Education, Lake County Alcohol and Other Drugs Services, Inter-Tribal Council of California, Lake County Hospice and the Lakeport Police Department.

Cost for each participant is $75, but help from service organizations is making scholarships possible for many girls. Scholarships also will be available for parents who want to attend on the parent days.

Each day will include breakfast provided by the Lake County Office of Education ROP Culinary Program, and lunch provided by Sutter Lakeside Hospital.

In addition, transportation will be available from several Lake County locations: Lake County Office of Education will provide bus transport from Upper Lake to the Oaks; Konocti Unified School District is providing bus transport from Clearlake to Hidden Valley Lake; and Lake Family Resource Center is providing van transport in Kelseyville, Finley and Lakeport.
