CampCARE 2024 in Action

What’s happening at CampCARE 2024?

CampCARE 2024 is in full swing! Each year, we host a week-long summer day camp for children ages 5-12 who have a loved one impacted by cancer. This week, we have already hiked nature trails, caught giant fish, played laser tag, canoed with friends, and so much more.

Day One saw our campers welcome friends with big hugs and excited laughter. Our talented counseling team led fun get-to-know-you games that inspired new friendships and bonds – and helped each child realize they are not the only one impacted by a cancer diagnosis.

Day Two introduced new games like laser tag and brought back old favorites like archery! Each activity allows a child to grow beyond their comfort zone and build self-confidence.

We are so grateful to the Sportsmen’s Club of Fort Worth for making CampCARE possible. Thank you to our many wonderful volunteers, donors, board of directors, and staff for creating a safe, welcoming, and fun-filled camp!
