Summer Camp

Summer camp can be a wonderful opportunity for children to learn and grow. While having epilepsy should not prevent a child from going to camp, sometimes it does affect a parent’s decision in selecting a summer camp. Children between the ages of 7 to 16 are eligible for camp.

Children attend Boggy Creek Camp, a medical camping center founded by General Norman Schwarzkopf and Paul Newman. The camp is specifically designed and equipped for children who have chronic or life-threatening illnesses. Camp sessions are one week. Children and families can also attend a family weekend. Activities include:

  • Boating
  • Fishing
  • Theater
  • Horseback riding
  • Swimming
  • Archery
  • Arts and crafts
  • Developing friendships

Registration for Boggy Creek Camp (ages 7-16) will take place through the end of March, 2007. The camp session for epilepsy will be held in early summer, 2007. Camp scholarships are available on a limited basis. For more information, please call (813) 870-3414.
