Your donation can help children go to camp

Wednesday, May 3, 2000 | 9:56 a.m.

The streets are pretty rough for some of the valley's children. Some have never even been outside Las Vegas. By going to summer camp the past few years, one 12-year-old boy has been able to get away from the city troubles.

His time was a positive experience, guardians say. He has grown from his times at summer camp, where life is quieter and safer and children have the freedom to be children.

Those around him would like to see him have the opportunity to attend camp again this year.

You can help send disadvantaged children to camp by joining these latest contributors to the Sun Camp Fund:

Tropicana hotel-casino; Nextlink Nevada; Frank and Mary Soria; Variety Club of Southern Nevada; Sylvia Berger and Caryn Dibble "In memory of father, husband, son"; Louis Family Trust; William P. George; Fred Leighton; Eldora Barthen; and OB Sports LLC/Angel Park.
