A UNIQUE CAMP EXPERIENCE FOR CHILDREN WITH CHALLENGES

Children with challenges are invited to West Calcasieu Cameron Hospital’s Camp Smiling F.A.C.E.S. (Fishing, Arts and Crafts, and Equestrian skills) for a week of activities and fun.

Physical challenges such as autism, spina bifida, down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and others are often limiting, but at Camp Smiling F.A.C.E.S., campers can reach unlimited potential and success as they enjoy traditional summer camp activities in a safe, helpful environment.
