Camp Joy was an empowering and educational experience filled with a variety of engaging activities including arts and crafts, yoga, journaling, games and so much more. Our campers enjoyed an action-packed schedule that encouraged personal growth and helped them form lasting friendships.
We are immensely grateful to the local businesses who generously donated their time and to our amazing camp counselors for their dedication and support. In addition, we are also incredible grateful for the financial donations that allowed us to provide a variety of activities for the campers such as DIY fidget boxes, water balloons, individual journals, gratitude boxes, craft supplies, snacks and more! It was a joy to watch our campers open up and truly shine!
We are beyond excited for what next year will bring, until then please enjoy our Camp Joy Recap!
