This summer I was invited to Camp Independent Firefly in Big Bear, California.  The Nevada Hemophilia Chapter has partnered with Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Foundation of Nevada to provide children with the best summer camp experience possible.  There were approximately 300 campers and staff in attendance with a host of Camp activities including Horseback riding, petting zoo, mountain biking, banana boat rides, daily water wars, and the coveted GaGa. The experience brought back memories of Camp HONOR and how awesome our camp community is.  I really appreciate the opportunity to spend time with childhood cancer survivors and hemophiliacs alike while listening to their stories, struggles, and achievements. It was truly an amazing experience!
