Our story…

Shiven’s life was forever changed and enriched with the memories he created at Camp Oochigeas. Thank you Camp Ooch for giving us so much joy! Camp Ooch is a camp dedicated to helping children with cancer – in-hospital, in-city and in Muskoka. Shiven had the good fortune of attending Day Camp at Camp Ooch (thanks to Camp Robin Hood, Markham) during the summer of 2015. He created beautiful unexpected friendships and created amazing memories. Through Camp Ooch’s tremendous efforts, the kids were able to partake in various activities – including archery, swimming, bowling, playing baseball, singing, kayaking, and making arts and crafts. I am thankful for the friendships Shiven made - he felt proud to be a part of such a great camp and was able to feel "normal" considering everything going on in his body.
