Summer is almost here and for many it means — summer camp! In Guffey, Colorado USA, there is a very special camp each summer — Nighthawk Ranch.
Nighthawk Ranch is a camp for kids aged 10 to 18 who are recovering (康复) from cancer (癌症). Tom and Dorothy Evans started the camp to provide a good place for those children, helping them build hope and confidence (信心) in their future.
Each session of the camp is organized (被组织) for 7 kids at most, and each session lasts one week. All the sessions at Nighthawk Ranch are free! Many people and organizations give away money to Nighthawk Ranch, so the campers and their families don't need to pay anything.
At the camp, each camper needs to look after a horse for the week, and they will learn to ride the same horse. Also, campers get to experience other activities, like water sports, archery (射箭) and arts.
Most of the campers start the week a little unfriendly to each other, and a little shy around the horses. By the time the last day comes, they are completely different children! It is great to see the changes in them.
Nighthawk Ranch is so much more than a summer camp. It's a truly wonderful experience for children and their families.
