Back in June, our Golisano Children’s Hospital oncology patients had the chance to step away from the hospital, make memories, try new things, and simply be kids at Camp Boggy Creek. 🏕️💙

For Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we’re sharing an inside look at their experience and hearing directly from our patients about what the experience meant to them.

We’re grateful to Camp Boggy Creek and everyone who helps create experiences like this for our patients and their families. ☀️
