Camp Cole, located in the town of Hopkins in Richland County, is set to open Thursday.
The camp is designed for children and teenagers who are facing serious illnesses and other physical, mental, and emotional health or life challenges.
Founder and Executive Director, Kelsey Carter, and Co-Founder and Director of Marketing, Margaret Grantz, joined WIS Midday to elaborate on the fully accessible camp and retreat facility.

After his passing, his parents Stacy and Scott sought to honor his memory through the creation of a summer camp for children with serious illness and disease. Cole had a lasting impact on those who knew him, and the Sawyer family has dedicated their lives to honoring their son.
