Free Camp for Children with Serious Medical Conditions
I just returned from the Center for Courageous Kids in KY for the Severe Food
Allergy Family Retreat weekend. It was absolutely AMAZING! If you
have a child with severe asthma, autism, down's syndrome, heart or
spine problems, cancer, or another serious medical condition that
prevents them from attending a regular camp, please check out their
website. They offer camp (either a week in the summer or a Family
Weekend) for FREE. The private rooms in the lodges have eight
twin beds per family and private bathroom. Doctors and nurses are available 24/7, the
hospital is 2 miles down the road, and they have a helicopter landing
pad. They have a woodshop, beauty shop, crafts, indoor
handicapped-equipped pool, horseback riding, bowling and more.
They want to serve families with special needs children who could use
a weekend "respite" where the entire family gets to have FUN in a safe
environment. Please visit their website if you want to attend, or
would like to make a private donation to this wonderful organization!
