Ryan's Last Year at Camp Fantastic

Camp Fantastic is a week long camp in Front Royal, Virginia, for kids fighting/or have fought cancer and other life threatening diseases. It's a week like no other for the kids and staff who descend to the beautiful 4H Center in the mountains,
and this is Ryan's 11th straight year in attendance.

We thought last year was his last year of eligibility, but a call from the director of the camp, Dave Smith, several months ago invited him to come out one more time. The thankful "glitch" is the fact at the start of camp (today) Ryan is still 17 years old. He will turn 18 on Thursday August 16th! Therefore, another year of Special Love!

This organization - Special Love Inc. has been a godsend for our entire family over the past 16 years with family weekends, parent only weekends, and an entire week of camp dedicated for the cancer kids' siblings called Brass (brothers and sisters, that has been a huge part of my daughter's life.

BSoleille! So very grateful for the magic of Special Love!
