These specialized camping experiences provide an opportunity for children to learn new skills, develop new relationships and learn lifelong lessons which allow them to become more independent individuals. During 2006, the summer camp served 1,303 children, including those with asthma, childhood cancer, heart disease, hemophilia, juvenile arthritis, kidney disease, muscular dystrophy, sickle cell anemia, chronic asthma, burn survivors and spina bifida. Many of the off-season camps are designed for the entire family. In 2006, 1,353 children and their families attended camp for a weekend. The time at camp is truly a respite from the routine of medical care for these children and their families. For more information, go to www.campjohnmarc.org.
