Description
Camp Casco is a one-week summer camp experience for childhood cancer patients and survivors that aims to restore the fun of summer with traditional camp activities including canoeing, rock climbing, ropes courses, swimming and much more! Experienced camp counselors and professional medical staff will support and encourage campers to rise above their diagnosis, shedding their insecurities and building lifelong friendships with peers who share their struggles with cancer. Camp Casco is modeled after Camp Reach for the Sky (theseanyfoundation.org/camp), a San Diego-based camp that has been changing the lives of childhood cancer patients, survivors, and their siblings for over 30 years. Just like Camp Reach for the Sky, Camp Casco will be provided completely free-of-cost, including transportation, to ensure that any child who is eligible can attend.The First Annual Camp Casco Benefit Gala will be held to raise funds for our inaugural session of camp, set to take place August 2015. Admission is $75 per person. Items to be auctioned off were kindly donated by local businesses across Boston. All proceeds will go directly towards funding Camp Casco. Auction item packages include: a 2-night stay at the Langham hotel, a Wedding Photography package, free Uno's Pizza for a year and much, much more. A complete list of our items will be available on our website (campcasco.org) closer to our event date.
