Considering the current data and recommendation that physical distancing and precautions remain in place until June, we have determined that it is in the best interest of our patients, families, volunteers, and staff to cancel Children’s camps for May and early June. As a result, Camp Courage will be cancelled for the week of May 23-29, 2020. At this time, a decision has not been made about camps scheduled to take place later in June or July. Our teams will continue to monitor the situation and plan accordingly. To learn more and see up to date information about the virus, please visit choa.org/covid19. Please contact Catherine Shields at Catherine.shields@choa.org with any questions or if you are a new camper interested in being placed on a contact list.
Watch: Camp Courage
At Camp Courage, every child’s possibilities are endless. From team-building activities to individual support, this camp has something for everyone. Camp Courage gives every child the chance to experience camp, build friendships and make memories that last a lifetime.
Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, in collaboration with Camp Twin Lakes, started Camp Courage to give patients with craniofacial conditions a fun opportunity to meet peers with similar medical conditions. Many Children's employees and community volunteers spearhead programs and activities throughout the camp to address issues, such as self-esteem and personal confidence.
Every child needs to feel special. We promote positive self-esteem with fun and learning. The only requirements are to laugh, play, grow and explore.
Our goals are to:
Hannah, 9, "Mom, everyone was like me and it didn't matter how many surgeries we had or if we had scars or what!"
Morgan, 16, "The real world might be hard, but at the end, I get to go to camp!"
