Description:

ASTHMA CAMP is a one-week camp held each summer at the Boggy Creek Gang Camp in Eustis, Florida.  It is designed for children who are unable to attend other camps due to illnesses such as asthma and other forms of chronic lung disease who need full-time medical supervision.  The camp experience helps children learn to lead full and active lives and to develop independence and confidence while sharing similar experiences with others.
