The Magic of Ooch provides Confidence,
Friendship, Hope, Joy, Laughter and Memories
that last a lifetime. Most importantly, it provides
kids with and affected by childhood cancer with
what they need most – the chance to be a kid.
MISSION
Camp Oochigeas is a privately funded, volunteer-based organization that provides kids
with and affected by childhood cancer with unique opportunities for growth through
challenging, fun, enriching and magical experiences.
Each year, about 1500 new cases
of childhood cancer are diagnosed.1
Camp Ooch Program Specialists ensure
every child diagnosed with cancer at
The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids)
has the opportunity to access Camp Ooch
programs. Our vision is to reach every
child in the province of Ontario.

Founded in 1983, Camp Oochigeas (Ooch),
has been providing magical camp
experiences for children with and affected
by childhood cancer for 30 years. We offer
year-round programs in Muskoka, at the
Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), at three
other regional cancer centres, and at
Ooch Downtown in the heart of Toronto.
As a registered charity that does not receive
government funding, Camp Ooch is made
possible by the generous support of donors
and volunteers.
Ooch is the only residential camp in Canada
to offer on-site chemotherapy IV treatment and
blood transfusions. Activities like canoeing,
archery, swimming and waterskiing allow
children with and affected by childhood
cancer opportunities to challenge themselves
in a safe environment and get back to what
they need most – the chance to be kids!

The attitude kids develop coming out of Camp is an
important part of their therapy and healing process.
Message from the executive director
and chair of the board
Dr. Jim Whitlock, SickKids Division Head, Haematology and Oncology
It’s amazing to think another year has passed by, and yet, as we reflect on the incredible work that continues to
happen at Camp Ooch, we are reminded that one year is actually a short period of time. It is a short period of
time to make a meaningful difference in the life of a child with or affected by childhood cancer; to listen closely
to the ongoing and increased needs of the kids and families we are privileged to serve; or to build on the
success of 30 years past to ensure the friendship, fun and Magic of Ooch remains relevant 30 years from now.
This is the work we are committed to each day and we are happy to report that even in a short period of time,
there is much to celebrate.
This past year has seen incredible growth at Camp Ooch. Meeting every child diagnosed with cancer at the
Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids); increasing the number of programs at Ooch Downtown to accommodate
the growing number of kids and families we serve; expanding our summer programs to offer more activities,
more fun and more life-changing experiences; each day of 2013 provided new opportunities for us to impart
more Ooch, more often, to more kids. Celebrating 30 years of impact, we are both humbled and thrilled to
connect and reconnect with campers, parents and volunteers who blazed the trail for what Ooch has become
today. It is always inspiring to hear their stories of impact and gratitude affirming that Camp Ooch truly
changes lives.
Standing in a room surrounded by 30 years of history, it is surreal to think of the potential the next 30 years
hold. We are reminded that as we celebrate each step forward, there is still much work to be done.
Here are the facts as we know them in 2014:
•Today in Canada, 10,000 children are living with the realities of childhood cancer.
•1,500 new cases will be diagnosed in Canada in 2014.
•Because of significant advances in medical therapy, 78 per cent of these children will survive five years or
more, an increase of almost 46 per cent since the early 1960s.
For some, these numbers may be staggering. For others, they are an encouragement affirming the great
progress that has occurred in the field of paediatric cancer. For Ooch, they challenge us to do more. Currently
reaching 35 per cent of kids diagnosed with cancer in Ontario, there are still 65 per cent who are unreached.
As we look to the future, we remain committed to our mission to provide more Ooch, more often to more kids.
Our aggressive mandate is to reach every child in Ontario diagnosed with cancer and to support them, their
siblings and their families in a way that is life-changing. We are building a sound financial structure to ensure
children diagnosed with cancer today continue to receive the same specialized care years from now. We are
immensely grateful for your investment in Camp Ooch as your commitment makes a big difference in the lives of
children with or affected by childhood cancer. We hope you will take pride in this annual report as it reflects
the incredible work you help to make happen.
On behalf of every child we serve, thank you.

yaqoub
christian
As told by Christian
Yaqoub was a little shy when he first met the
In-Hospital team at SickKids in the fall of 2011.
He didn’t like being the centre of attention, but he
did enjoy the opportunity to be in the playroom
with other kids. In true Ooch fashion, the Program
Specialists got to know Yaqoub and his family very
well. “Discovering his love of trains, cars and music
created the foundation we needed to engage with
Yaqoub at his level,” says Taylor, Program Specialist.
“Building a trust and rapport with our campers is
where the Magic of Ooch starts.”
The following spring, Yaqoub and his family came
to their first Ooch Downtown programs. “It was so
great to see them,” says Olivia, an Ooch staffer.
“They came to our Bluegrass Breakfast, Dinner and a
Movie and started to feel more comfortable with the
idea of sending Yaqoub to programs on his own.”
After learning more about Ooch and the summer day
camp program, Yaqoub's parents registered him for a
full two-week session.
Yaqoub’s first day of day camp was both exciting and
scary. “Many of our first-time camper’s step off the
bus with hesitation,” says Hil, Program Specialist.
“They explore their new surroundings wide-eyed with
delight and fear, but it doesn’t take long before the
7
fear subsides and joy and laughter overshadow any
reservations they may have had.” As the hours
passed, it became clear that Yaqoub was not only
comfortable with the routine of day camp, he was
going to love it! The volunteer counsellors noticed this
quiet, shy guy coming out of his shell. “Yaqoub was
making new friends, learning new skills and tackling
opportunities with enthusiasm and confidence.
Activities like archery, mini golf, tag and arts and
crafts became Yaqoub’s favourite things to do.
Nothing, however, could top his enthusiasm for
swimming,” says Olivia. “The smile on his face was
intoxicating. In fact, trying to keep up with Yaqoub
when it was time to go to the pool kept us all on
our toes!”
“Yaqoub’s growth over his next two weeks at day
camp was simply amazing,” says Olivia. “The trust
he had in his fellow campers, the safety he felt in a
community that celebrated his achievements as well
as the friends he made brought so much joy to both
him and his family.” day camp and Ooch are a place
where Yaqoub enjoys the friendship and fun of being
a kid. Cancer has been forced to take a back seat on
this incredible journey.
At the age of 12, my life was on hold. At a time
when I was playing competitive hockey, keeping
active and living my life, I was diagnosed with
Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a type of treatable cancer that
affects people of all ages. As I look back on this
gloomy event, I began to think that it was predestined
for me. Growing up, my mom’s favourite saying
consisted of “Christian, know that everything
in life happens for a reason.” I knew in my mind that
nothing could hurt me; I was determined to win this
fight. In the summer of 2009 – still undergoing
treatment – I experienced a great lift in my spirits.
I was invited to go to a summer camp called Camp
Oochigeas. Over the past two years now, no longer
am I a camper, but a leader in the “Ooch” community.
I have partaken in the first of two leadership programs
aimed to shape campers into future leaders. In order
to complete the program, I needed to complete two
main components. The first component involved
demonstrating teamwork and leadership skills while on
a three-day backcountry canoe trip in Algonquin Park.
Throughout this multi-day voyage, I treated my fellow
Leaders in Training (LITs) like family. Most of all, I
provided support to those who required both physical
and mental assistance. This support was achieved by
taking the initiative to do things like prepare meals,
portage canoes, and provide entertainment. The
second element of the LIT program consisted of
spending the duration of a week with a junior boys
cabin group. During this weeklong test, my primary
objective was to prove to my Leadership Coordinator
that I was equipped with enough leadership
experience to guide, mentor and connect with young
children whose lifetime struggles reflected those of my
own. So far, this experience has been the epitome and
by far, the happiest moment of my life. Not only was I
giving back to Camp Oochigeas, I was realizing my
purpose in life – that it is my duty to lead by example
and help others reach their potential. Clearly, the LIT
program is an experience at Camp Oochigeas that I
will never forget. In the future, I plan on pursuing other
leadership roles within the Oochigeas community.

Because of the generous support of our donors and
volunteers, Camp Ooch continues to provide magical
programs at our Residential Camp in Muskoka, at
The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), at three other
regional cancer centres across Southern Ontario and
at Ooch Downtown, our urban recreational facility in
the heart of Toronto. Cancer changes a child’s life.
So does Camp.
