Camp Teen Angel July Retreat

Thursday, July 19 - Sunday, July 22, 2012

Camp Teen Angel is for young teens ages 13, 14, and 15. These outstanding weekend retreats were designed with the hope that they would address the needs of young people affected by cancer through loved ones (parent, sibling or grandparent) or who have experienced the loss of a loved one through cancer. These one-of-a-kind cancer support camps are offered in the summer through the co-partnership of Angel On My Shoulder and Marshfield Clinic. These retreats are an environment of support and understanding. They provide young people the opportunity to meet others like themselves in a well-supervised atmosphere of love and acceptance knowing that their pain is understood.

We are pleased to announced we have extended Camp Teen Angel by one day. Campers wIll arrive on THURSDAY, JULY 19 and return home on Sunday, July 22. Our campers have requested a longer stay and our camps are so packed with activities, that the extra day should enhance the experience for our campers.
 

Applications for Camp Teen Angel must be made in advance and acceptance is on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration and Health History forms are required prior to acceptance.
