(NC) June 25 Victory Junction Camp (Randleman, NC)
Posted: Tue Jun 27, 2017 4:59 pm
On June 25th 2017 members of the 501st Legion’s Carolina Garrison and the Rebel Legion’s Blue Ridge Base helped kick off Super Hero Week at Victory Junction Camp The was the 5th year (after a 2 year hiatus) that the Carolina Garrison and Blue Ridge Base have helped welcome the kids to camp.
Here is a little information about Victory Junction from their website. Victory Junction is a medically safe, yet exhilarating camp that challenges children who have a serious medical condition to try things they never imagined possible. As they conquer activities like zip lining and archery or experience bowling, fishing or swimming, children build confidence that will shape how they view the rest of their lives.
Members of the Carolina Garrison and Blue Ridge Base spent a few hours interacting, playing board games and taking photos with the kids and their families arriving at camp.
I want to give a big thank you to everyone that attended this year. This year we had the most troopers ever attend this event with a total of 8! We even had a long distance brother visiting that helped out as a handler. Thank you to Luis Canto (CB-20275) from the Portuguese Outpost for your help and good conversation. And thank you to everyone for making this a great troop!
