Camp Escape
Camp Escape gives children with sickle cell disease the opportunity to share their experiences with others who are also coping with the disease. Held annually at The Woodlands in Wexford, Pa., this camp is offered to boys and girls, ages 6 to 14, and generally includes five days of activities. Campers enjoy swimming in a heated pool and other sports, arts and crafts and nights by the campfire.
