Our brave campers forgot their struggles as they enjoyed arts and crafts, “canoeing on wheels,” archery, yoga, and more. Despite power flickers and network outages, our resilient team brought fun and relief to everyone, including staff dealing with storm damage at home, all while providing the best care to our patients and families.
