Camp Catch-A-Rainbow - Free Pediatric Oncology Camp

At YMCA Storer Camps, we believe every child deserves the chance to be a kid, no matter the challenges they may face. That’s why we’re proud to offer Camp Catch-A-Rainbow (CCAR) —a free, unforgettable experience for kids ages 4-17 who are being treated for or in remission from cancer.

Here, kids can enjoy a variety of activities including :

• Swimming
• Archery

• …and so much more!

Through the generosity of donors and grants, Camp Catch-A-Rainbow ensures that every child can participate at no cost .
