All applications are reviewed by the camp medical staff for final approval. You must present evidence of health insurance and\/or Medicaid. A medical form is part of the application and must be completed. For children on treatment there is an additional medical form to be filled in by the oncology team with detailed instructions on what the child will need while at camp. Special permission forms are included in the application package and must be signed by a parent or guardian. Happiness Is Camping includes sessions for our campers’ siblings all summer.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″ text_align=”left”][vc_single_image image=”11173″ img_size=”medium”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”.medical-council”][vc_column][vc_row_inner gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Happiness Is Camping is Free…” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]The Board of Directors of Happiness Is Camping realizes that illnesses, especially cancer and sickle cell, are expensive. For this reason, they’ve worked hard to build a financial base, centered upon contributions and volunteer services, that allows them to offer the camp program at no cost to you. Donations are accepted, but under no circumstances will a child with cancer be turned away for lack of money. Included in the camp “package” is all medical care, food, and activities.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Siblings:” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]With the sacrifices many families must make to care for a sick child, siblings can sometimes feel a bit left out.
