The Cheley program was expanded in 1984 to include the Cheley/Children's Burn Victims Summer Camp for children who are healing from a burn injury. The 8-day camp welcomes burn survivors from all over the world. Together, they experience the Cheley magic with a group of peers. The Burn Camp program includes day hikes, backpacking, technical climbing, horseback riding, crafts, fishing, evening campfires, songs and games, and sports. Cheley staff members provide the camp program and counseling expertise while The Children's Hospital team provides expertise in burn injuries and emotional/social issues. In addition, firefighters from Denver and Estes Park and burn nurses from other countries join the staff to help provide a spectacular experience for everyone. All campers attend on scholarship, thanks to the fundraising efforts of many compassionate groups and individuals, including The Burn Foundation, Rotary Club, Firefighters, Cheley parents and alumni, and Tahara Mountain Lodge. The Burn Victims Summer Camp is held in August, following the completion of our summer programs. For more details on our burn victims summer camp, visit www.noordinarycamps.org.
