Camp

Registration information for Arizona Campers

Camp Del Corazon is an organization that provides a medically supervised, residential summer camp for children ages 7-17 who are living with heart disease. Their main camp is located on Catalina Island, 22 miles off the California coastline, and each year has served approximately 300 children for the past 12 years.

The camp offers an opportunity to finally be 'normal', to forget their ailments and to connect with others who have had similar experiences and scars. Parents of children with heart conditions are often fearful that activities enjoyed by other kids could be harmful. There are very few camps with the ability or medically trained staff to provide for these special needs children, or places that their parents would trust.

Camp Del Corazon offers a full camping experience including sleeping in a cabin, nature walks, rock wall climbing, arts & crafts, and many other recreational activities and programs associated with a traditional summer camp. They also provide a setting that offers support and self-esteem building and socialization that these children do not otherwise might not experience.

 A full range of camp activities -- including water sports

 24 Hour monitoring by cardiologists & nurses

 Dispensing of medications

 Life-saving medical equipment

 A life changing experience
