Last day of camp means our traditional bubble release before sending the kids home. Our campers write messages on dissolvable paper to their loved ones and put it in a bottle of bubbles. We say a prayer and blow the bubbles to heaven. 🫧

We love Camp Lakota, BSAC and all their volunteers. Thank you for another successful Rays of Hope Grief Camp.
