Camp Kesem - Make the Magic

Camp Kesem is a week long Summer camp for kids age 6-16. This is a camp for kids whose parents have, or have had, or died from cancer. This camp has been wonderful for my kids. It is free to the children and their families. It is entirely run by donations. Make the Magic is one of their biggest fundraisers. It will be held December 11 (Sat) at 6pm in the Skyroom of the Wilkinson Center (at BYU). This is a silent auction dinner and there will be a short presentation about Camp Kesem. The dinner is free (I think). If you'd like to attend please RSVP via e-mail (BYU@campkesem.org) by Wednesday December 8. They should start accepting applications for the 2011 camp sometime in January. Make sure that you RSVP ASAP if you want to go to the dinner. http://www.campkesem.org/site/c.jvI0ImN0JuE/b.2536437/k.79B1/Camp_Kesem_BYU.htm
