Youth Development Professionals Guidebook
Education:Self-Improvement
Come and learn about North Star Reach; Director of Camping from W. Patrick Smith. Opened in the summer of 2016 North Star Reach is Michigan’s only barrier-free, fully-accessible medical camp serving children with significant health challenges and their families, all at no charge to them. As a member of the SeriousFun Children’s Network, founded by Paul Newman, we are part of a trusted global network of camps and programs for children with serious illnesses. For nearly 30 years, camp has been part of my life. Volunteering at a camp for children with cancer did more than change the lives of campers, it changed mine too, but helping me find my campfire. The magical, transforming fun let me to an incredible journey serving children and families, working with amazing individuals and organizations, and having the opportunity to build two new accessible camp facilities.
