My Story
When I am really missing Edyn or struggling, I think What Would Edyn Do (#wwed). It grounds me, brings me peace, and typically puts a smile on my face. I'm sure Edyn would continue to live with joy, love and laughter treating people with patience, humility and kindness. Edyn loved her time at Camp Ooch spread her infectious love for life. She hoped to be a counsellor there at some point, so in this spirit we support Camp Ooch (CAMPFIRE CIRCLE) in her name.
Please join our team to walk or run in Toronto, or wherever you are. It is a great way to kick off Mother's Day celebrations.

Description
Childhood cancer changes lives. So does camp. And so can you.
A diagnosis of childhood cancer changes life in an instant. For kids and families, it can suddenly feel like everything is about cancer. Simple childhood joys like friendships, birthday parties, or sports teams being left behind in the need for medical appointments, hospital stays, and long absences from school.
Whether it’s in a hospital setting, in the community, online or at overnight camp, CAMPFIRE CIRCLE* fills the void, creating safe spaces for kids to be kids, so families can be families, at no cost to them.
It’s where curiosity and confidence, bravery and acceptance come to play, and healing through happiness is on the agenda, every day, and in every way! Kids and families are never alone, because there’s always room for one more in the circle.
Your support of Sporting Life 10K ensures that CAMPFIRE CIRCLE’S programs continue to reach 1,700 kids and their families every year. Your gift will make life-changing experiences possible.
*Did you know that Camp Ooch & Camp Trillium merged in 2020, and that we have a new name? Announcing … CAMPFIRE CIRCLE! We aren’t changing what we do—we're just changing our name.
