MDA Summer Camp is a magical week-long experience designed specifically for kids aged 8-17 with neuromuscular disease. At camp, campers enjoy adaptive activities like swimming, zip-lining, horseback riding, and dancing under the stars-all at no cost to their families thanks to our generous supporters. They also get the chance to foster lifelong friendships with other kids who understand what it’s like to live with a neuromuscular disease.
