The Burn Camps Program was created in 1983 to meet the psychological and rehabilitation needs of children and families following burn injuries. After a burn injury, a child can anticipate meticulous reconstructive surgeries and ongoing physical and occupational therapy. The Burn Camps Program has grown into a series of camp programs that meet these needs by providing challenging activities and creating opportunities to form lasting friendships and mentorships.
The Fire Hose Race consists of 30+ teams of 5 skiers spaced along a 50’ fire hose while working as a team to maneuver through a 15-gate giant slalom course. Along with carrying the hose, each team member must wear a bunker coat and a fire helmet. Race teams may include both skiers and snowboarders. Each team will complete two runs; the fastest overall single run time will win the event and be awarded the traveling Fire Hose Race Trophy to display until the following year's event!
With every $1650 raised, 100% of the cost for one child to participate in a summer's week-long camp.
