Medical Specialty Camp Celebrates 15 Years with Annual Campfire Event

From Flying Horse Farms

Flying Horse Farms (FHF), a medical specialty camp that provides experiences for kids with serious illnesses and their families at no cost, is thrilled to announce its annual Campfire fundraiser on Oct. 3.

Campfire is an evening under the stars. This year’s event will mark 15 years of delivering hope and joy through medically and emotionally safe camp programming, so every camper has the opportunity to just be a kid. Throughout the night, guests will be immersed in camp magic with stories from camper families themselves, self-guided tours of camp, and programming that celebrates FHF’s impact – with delicious camp-inspired bites from Cameron Mitchell Premier Events.

At 5:30 p.m., the evening will kick off with Bonfire Circle at the Campitheater, where guests will gather for an intimate setting to hear stories, enjoy food and gain connection before heading into the rest of camp to see all FHF’s accessible programming in action.

“Since opening, Flying Horse Farms has been a place where every kid belongs. Where kindness and connection drive hope,” said Nichole E. Dunn, president and CEO of Flying Horse Farms. “This year, our theme ‘make the world like camp’ gave us the opportunity to see how the spirit of camp goes beyond our gates. Together, the camp community is creating a world that feels a little more like camp, a place where everyone is seen, supported and celebrated.”

Guests are invited to come “camp chic” (think flannel with finesse) and enjoy complimentary valet parking. Proceeds ensure that all campers, whether they’re living with cancer, heart conditions, blood disorders, craniofacial diagnoses, spinal cord injuries, or internalized mental health challenges, can attend camp free of charge.
