Joan Lunden’s Camp Reveille Mission
Being a caregiver is one of the toughest jobs out there. It’s not only emotionally draining, but can also be physically taxing. And while caregivers are happy to help their elderly loved ones, it’s important for caregivers to also take care of themselves. Beautiful Camp Reveille, located in Naples, Maine offers a unique getaway for women where they can re-energize and get inspired in an exhilarating and serene environment
Camp Reveille was started by Joan Lunden—a longtime health and wellness advocate and A Place for Mom spokesperson— in 2008, offering multi-tasking women a haven to decompress, relax and refresh. Covering four days and three nights, camp attendees are met with a host of activities and programs such as yoga, tennis, arts and crafts, dance classes and meditation.
Lunden brings a meaningful view and valuable insights to her role with A Place for Mom. She helps to not only educate families, but also offers a caregiver perspective and understanding; which is why one deserving contest winner will be awarded a fully paid camp tuition for the Camp Reveille summer session. The getaway offers a well-deserved break from life’s hectic schedule and the day-to-day responsibilities of caring for a loved one.
