“This is the second year for Camp Gilda, and we are excited to explore more of our community,” Chelsey Woolsey, Youth Program Coordinator, exclaimed. “Camp Gilda hopes to create lasting relationships with area children and their families impacted by cancer and create bonds allowing them to know they are not alone.”

The camp will include off-site adventures at CMoe, Mesker Park Zoo, and Metro Sports, as well as plenty of fun activities at Gilda’s Club, located at 5740 Vogel Rd., Evansville. All campers must register by Friday, June 30, and the camp is limited to 25 campers. Area children who have been impacted by cancer, meaning either they have been diagnosed or a family member or loved one has been diagnosed with cancer, are welcome to apply.
