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.

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.

HERE ARE THE FACTS AS WE KNOW THEM IN 2014.

• Today in Canada, 10,000 children are living with the realities of childhood cancer.

• Fifteen hundred new cases will be diagnosed in Canada in 2014.

• Because of significant advances in medical therapy, 78% of these children will survive five years or more, an increase of almost 46% since the early 1960s.

In response to this increased demand, Camp Ooch continues to offer camp programs that provide friendship and fun through what we fondly refer to as the Magic of Ooch.

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

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.

YAQOUB

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.

“OOCH = FUN”CAMPER

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.
