Founded in 1988 by Paul Newman, The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp in Ashford,
Connecticut is a nonprofit, residential summer camp and year-round center
serving children and their families coping with cancer and other
serious illnesses and conditions.
I took the above off the website. They have volunteer doctors and nurses
there and what is so great is a child never leaves their activities for
medications or treatments, the nursing staff goes to the child where ever
they are or whatever they are doing. For a group of 6 they have 3 or 4 adults
with them all the time. The campers sleeping quarters have an adjoining
room for the adults to sleep. I was a floater so I did not stay in there
area to sleep, but you are assigned a camp and then you eat with them,
evening activities you participate with. I spendt the day in the craft area
working with anyone that was in there.
The kids go free to the camp.
