Trio of sisters could reap benefits from summer camp

Tuesday, July 4, 2000 | 10:45 a.m.

Three Las Vegas girls would love to go to camp. The sisters, ages 9, 8 and 6, would benefit greatly from a week at camp, said their guardian.

Camp might help them develop their self-esteem, teach them to be independent, make friends and develop good relationships with other people.

But with the high cost of summer camp parents and guardians can't always afford to send their children to camp.

Donations to the Sun Camp Fund pay for scholarships so that children throughout the Las Vegas Valley who otherwise may not be able to attend can escape the city and attend camp.

You can join these recent donors:

Agassi Charitable Foundation; Mrs. Shiel Dunsker "In memory of James Hill"; Marilyn and Herbert Roth; Thomas C. Nelson; Betsy L. Abrahamson; Earle and Jean McNeely; Stewart and Ellen Dunsker "In memory of James Hill"; Ginger and Lanis O'Steen; Robert D. Jensen; and Nancy Caudill "In memory of Faye Rodgers."
