Summer Enrichment Camp

Fun and friendship ruled at this year's ASK Summer Enrichment Camps. Over the course of three weeks, 73 kids, including 15 new smiling faces, enjoyed a week of hands-on activities, playing games, and just being silly.

Many of our returning campers were happy to see their ASK friends and to catch up on recent happenings -- like having hair again! You know, that new, super-soft hair that everyone wants to touch.

Your support of ASK provided campers with the chance to enjoy tie-dying t-shirts, painting, yoga, performing with hand bells, and even a few impromptu dance parties. 

"What makes camp so special to me is helping children with cancer focus on just being a kid," shared Alma Morgan, ASK educational coordinator and camp leader. "Whether it's a 16-year-old diagnosed a decade ago or a 6-year-old undergoing chemotherapy, our kids come to camp and feel like they're a normal kid because during other times in their life, they are the kid with cancer."

In asking the kids what they would like for next year's camp, there was a resounding request for more bingo, art projects, robotics - and, adding another week of camp!

We hear you, campers. Time to start planning!
