Camp Description:
Camp Happy Days is "100 days packed into 7"! We are a camp for children with cancer and their siblings aged from 4-16 years. The camp is held in Summerton, SC and is always held during the first week in July. We have many activities such as teambuilding, arts n'crafts, the Tastee Zone, Sew What?, sky divers, a Prom,
Camp Talent Show and the Blob to mention but a few. Our goal is to bring many "tommorrows...today" to children with cancer. Camp is a place where they can forget their disease and become "wonderfully ordinary" again! We take along with us 170 volunteer counselors as well as our own chef and a team of medics. (We are always looking for counselors by the way, especially males as they are in short supply).
