20 years of laughter, friends, and FUN doesn’t just happen; it begins with a vital spark of support from people like you! For over two decades, supporters, dedicated families, and local businesses have ignited hope, fueled adventure and kindled friendships for thousands of campers. Join us for another dazzling evening where we “pack the house” and celebrate a night full of memories. We’ll be celebrating the past 20 years and look toward the decades ahead as we continue to make camp even brighter for MORE children and families navigating life-altering medical conditions.
