Camp Fund donations help kids

Donations to the Sun Camp Fund come in all sizes. All are appreciated.

It's especially heart-warming when letters such as the following accompany the donation:

"We are retired on a limited income, but hope this will help," a Las Vegas couple wrote.

Enclosed was a check for $25.

Thanks to such people, the Sun is able to provide memorable camping experiences for local children. Other donors to the Sun Camp Fund:
