No one is every turned away from camp due to financial need. Watch for more announcements regarding our 20th Anniversary next June, and news about an upcoming documentary that captures the power and beauty of Eric's story, including the power of music to heal. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;">We miss Eric every single day.
