Camp Joy campers This camp is offered to youths ages 7-17 who have received an organ or tissue transplant more than 12 months before the camp start date. Campers will enjoy a fun-filled weekend of outdoor educational activities where they can be a kid again and be inspired to be the greatest they can be.

Camp Activities
The campers will spend three-days, two-nights at the camp in a variety of activities that are designed to help them develop their self image and sense of accomplishment. Activities are adapted to each person’s abilities and promote the development of new friendships and individual growth. All camp activities are supervised in a safe and nurturing environment.
