Camp Bluebird
................................................................................................................................................
 

Camp Bluebird is a special project of St. John’s Cancer Center and the Telephone Pioneers of America. It is a unique three-day, two-night camping experience for people 18 or older who have had a cancer diagnosis.

Sharing and coping are focuses of the camp. Cost is minimal and scholarships are available.

Camp is held at Camp Maranatha near Everton, amid the beauty of nature where campers enjoy the pleasure of good fun and laughter shared with others.

Camp is held each spring and fall and provides a time for rest, relaxation, and spiritual renewal. Each camp is unique with a special theme. Programming focuses on coping and making the most of life.

Registration for camp is required. Please call St. John's Cancer Center at 417-820-2523 or 800-432-2273.
