🎉 About Camp Holiday Trails

A Camp for Children and Teens with Medical Needs

Since 1974, Camp Holiday Trails (CHT) has been a place of empowerment, growth, and joy for children and teens with medical needs across the Mid-Atlantic. Located in Charlottesville, VA, our camp welcomes kids with qualifying diagnoses ages 6-17, along with their siblings, to experience life-changing moments in an inclusive, supportive environment.

• Diagnosis-specific sessions: We offer various camp options to meet the unique needs of our campers and families.
• Activities: Campers can enjoy a challenge course, a “Book of Firsts,” and the Wishboat Ceremony.
• Mission: We provide transformative experiences to help campers manage their diagnoses, build friendships, and grow as individuals.
• Accessibility: Generous donors enable us to offer a nonrefundable camper fee of just $100.

🩺 Health and Safety

To prioritize health and safety, we provide 24/7 medical care during Camp with dedicated staff ready to support every camper's unique needs.
