Safety — state-of-the-art medical facility and 24/7 on-site care
Every child's safety is our top priority. In addition to a lake, a pool, and a big red barn, our camp features a state-of-the-art medical facility and 24-7 on-site care from our full-time medical team. We start by making sure kids are medically, physically, and emotionally safe at camp, so they can focus on fun. We understand that children with serious illnesses have special needs from diets to devices. Addressing those needs comes before anything else.
Belonging — a camp designed for kids with serious illnesses
Our entire camp was created for kids with serious illnesses. Everything at camp is adapted to be safe for all. The best part? Everyone here faces the same challenges.
Flying Horse Farms' campus includes an archery range, Happy Times Wood Shop, Amphitheater, the Acorn nature center, cabins, swimming area, Activity Center, Ropes Course & Zipline, CBJ Sport Court, Boat Dock, and Angie's Arts & Crafts — plus the Big Red Barn where camp magic begins. Campers swim, fish, make crafts, and gather around campfires.
Flying Horse Farms' Medical Advisory Council includes physicians and nurses from Nationwide Children's Hospital, Dayton Children's Hospital, Akron Children's Hospital, Rush Children's Hospital, OhioHealth Riverside, and Lower Lights Health Center, spanning specialties from pediatric cardiology to pharmacy to psychology.
Safety — psychosocial and child life specialist support
We also make sure they're mentally and emotionally safe because that's what builds confidence. Kids at Flying Horse Farms get the opportunity to freely explore interests and passions in a way they've never experienced, and get psychosocial, trauma informed support from on-site child life specialists.
We earn the trust of our campers and families by offering compassion, commitment, and the highest quality medical care possible. This creates peace of mind for parents and respite from the worries of daily life for our campers.
