About this race
Come run and walk with the Borough's Bravest Volunteers as we raise funds for the Burn Prevention Network's Camp Susquehanna!
What is Camp Susquehanna?
Camp Susquehanna is a program of the Burn Prevention Network that offers year-round online activities and a 4-day, sleep-away experience for youths ages 7-21 who have had a serious burn injury. It is an opportunity for children to have fun, learn life skills, meet other burn survivors, and process the trauma of their injury in a supportive environment. Although Camp Susquehanna’s campers are of varying ages, activities and groups are geared towards each camper’s developmental needs.
