A Free Medical Camp!!
Providing Traditional Camping Experiences to Children and their Families

The Center for Courageous Kids is a multi-disease therapeutic camp for children with a serious illness or chronic condition located in Scottsville, Kentucky.  Our mission is to uplift children who have life-threatening illnesses by creating experiences year-round that are memorable, exciting, fun, build self-esteem, are physically safe, and medically sound. There is absolutely no cost to the children or their families! We offer 9 weeks of summer camp, designed for children 7 to 15 years of age with a chronic illness that cannot normally participate in fun childhood memories of camp.  We also offer family retreat weekends for the whole family, designed to provide respite, recreation and support programs for families dealing with a child between 3 and 17 years of age suffering from a chronic illness. Visit our website at www.courageouskids.org.  For additional information, contact Tina Smith, RN or Mariah Hayes at (270)618-2900 or tsmith@courageouskids.org or mhayes@courageouskids.org.
