Once again, one of our own, David Morralee, is spearheading a long distance charity solo sail of a fleet of boats August 16-21, attempting to cover 300km on the Ottawa River in 6 days. The charity is Campfire Circle that hosts camp for kids affected by cancer and their families.
Camp-inspired experiences lost to childhood cancer and the pandemic, like fun, friendship and community are still happening year-round at CAMPFIRE CIRCLE and resuming in person this summer! And they need us! (Did you know they are the only campsite in Canada to provide IV chemotherapy and blood transfusions on site and also provide bedside camp experiences in hospitals?) Together, we can help kids and families access the healing through happiness that only CAMPFIRE CIRCLE can deliver.
