NIGHTHAWK RANCH is for kids and teenagers (10-18 years old) with cancer that have
completed their first phases of treatment. Nighthawk Ranch gives them the opportunity to live on
a ranch and develop skills. The ranch provides a safe, healing environment where the goal is to
increase self-esteem and hope for the future. All one-week sessions at Nighthawk Ranch are 100%
free to kids that qualify.
Designated Airport

Camp Flight Fund is helping these 3 campers with cancer to attend camp.
