First Time at Camp

What makes Camp Ooch special?

You probably have lots of questions. For example, What is camp? How will it benefit my child?

What do you think of when you think of summer camp? A chance to enjoy the outdoors, and to make lifelong friends and memories. Well, Camp Ooch does all that for your child – in a place specially designed for children like yours.

Camp Ooch is the first fully equipped residential camp for children with cancer and those affected by childhood cancer. The courage, inner-strength and sense of belonging your child will develop at camp combine to become an important addition to standard cancer treatment. Being at camp allows them to gain confidence and independence while still feeling a part of a close-knit and understanding group.

As one mom told us about her son Adam, “Adam has been through many of life’s greatest challenges. Thank you for making his journey a little easier!”
