Care Camps Big Weekend

Care Camps Big Weekend May 10 - May 12, 2024 KOA is the Care Camps biggest supporter and we want you to join us as we raise money for this amazing organization. Guests who camp with us on May 10th and donate $25 to Care Camps will receive the Saturday night of camping for FREE! These specialized oncology camps let kids with cancer get back to being kids again. It allows them to create friendships and support systems with others going through the same challenges, while making memories that they will carry with them for a lifetime. Their siblings and parents are able to attend and reconnect with each other strengthening the family unit during an incredibly difficult time. To learn more about Care Camps visit www.carecamps.org.
