We are very actively working on a camp location and will get details out as soon as that is confirmed. The exact dates are dependent upon what we can work out with a camp.

It will be Awareness week 2005. We just have not worked out yet which part of Awareness Week!

Karen McClune is UBPN's Camp Coordinator. She will be posting here as soon as she has some things firmed up.

Thanks for your question and your interest. It is going to be a great camp experience!

I am definitely interested in finding out when and where camp will be. I didn't know about this camp until only a few minutes ago. I really think it would help my family. Please do keep me posted on the specifics.

Hi all,

I am still working on Camp 2005 and as soon as I have details you will know as I will post here.

We do know that camp 2005 will be in Oct 2005 and somewhere in or around Wash. D.C.

Thanks for asking,

Karen

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.
Location: New York
