    Description

    Help a child with serious illness experience the magic of camp.

    Maybe you're a pro marshmallow roaster. Or a great storyteller. Or maybe you simply have a passion for kids. You can help children with serious illnesses experience the magic of camp.

    We are seeking passionate volunteers to join our camp family as cabin counselors, activity counselors, and family sidekicks. If you only have a few hours to give--that's okay too. You can make a big difference as a kitchen, facilities, administrative or event volunteer.

    At Flying Horse Farms we provide magical, transformative camp experiences for children with serious illnesses. Located on 200 acres just outside Mt. Gilead, Ohio, the camp hosts hundreds of children and families each year--free of charge.

    The children who benefit from camp have illnesses including cancer, heart disease, arthritis, blood disorders, pulmonary disease, gastrointestinal disease, kidney disease, and craniofacial anomalies.

    For a weekend or week at a time, being sick takes a backseat to being a kid. And fun is priority number one.

    So pack your spirit of adventure and bring your talents to camp. We can't wait to welcome you around our campfire.
