About the event
Camp New Light offers campers from every walk of life the excitement and fun of a traditional summer camp in addition to the unique advantages of an environment and staff responsive to their unique health concerns. We work to ensure that regardless of ability, cultural background, faith, gender, and income, campers get to enjoy a week of adventure while learning self-help, sickle cell disease management skills, and developing a more positive self-image. Campers are encouraged to explore a variety of interests including swimming, canoeing, tennis, climbing, and arts and crafts.
