Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times
Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times is located at Idyllwild’s Apple Canyon Center in the mountains of Riverside County and provides free, medically supervised, residential camp sessions for children with cancer and their families.
As the nation’s largest year-round recreational program for children with cancer, Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times brightens the lives of hundreds of kids as they spend time outdoors—and away from the hospital—enjoying friendships, fun and adventure. Campers participate in such activities as arts-and-crafts, campfires, hiking, horseback-riding, scavenger hunts and swimming. Camp is a place for children to share common bonds and experiences with other kids and counselors who currently have, or have recovered from, cancer.
Camp sessions are offered throughout the year, with weekend sessions during the school year and week-long sessions during the summer months. In addition, local field trips, parties, reunions and domestic and international travel vacations are sponsored throughout the year.
A volunteer staff of professionals, comprised of dedicated doctors, nurses, psychologists and specially trained counselors and activity specialists, provides a medically and psychologically safe environment for children during all Camp activities.
Since its founding in 1982, Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times has welcomed more than 25,000 campers with cancer from throughout Southern California, across the United States and around the world. Annually, Camp serves 1,500 campers.
