Camp O'Bannon

Camp O'Bannon We are a summer camp for boys and girls of Licking County, who have been referred by schools and social service agencies.

Serving the youth of Licking County, our goal is to increase self-esteem by providing the opportunity to learn new skills, improve behavior with positive reinforcement and foster positive relationships with others in a safe, caring, environment. The campers enjoy a week or two of camp life, including swimming, arts & crafts, hiking, games, nature activities, and lots of other fun stuff at NO cost to their families. Everything, even most clothing, is provided during their stay at camp.

So sad that session 1 is already complete but these campers had loads of fun while they were here!

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity and support our community continues to show us. Thanks to your kindness, our children will be able to enjoy several wonderful new additions this summer and beyond.

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to those who donated:

* New shower heads and shower curtains for all of our showers
* New inflatable pools and splash pads
* A new slip-and-slide for the kids to enjoy

Your donations help create a more comfortable, fun, and welcoming environment for the children we serve. Seeing our community come together to support our mission means more than words can express.

From all of us, thank you for helping make a difference in the lives of our kids! ❤️☀️💦
