Join us at Leon & Lulu as we learn about and raise money for Camp Michi-MAC. 10% of the day's sales will benefit Camp Michi-MAC. In addition, there will be a raffle and Lucky Duck game for prizes. Camp-themed refreshments will be provided.
Camp Michi-MAC was established by AAFA-MI along with the Michigan Allergy and Asthma Society (MAAS) in 1980. At that time, it was only the 4th camp of it's kind in the United States. The camp was created specifically for children with significant asthma who are on daily medication, and who might be at risk attending "regular" camp. Campers can swim boat and ride horses and have a "regular" camp experience because the medical team, who are on site 24-hours a day, understands asthma and allergies, triggers and proper treatment. The medical staff includes physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and respiratory therapists.
Children with significant asthma or allergies entering grades 3-8 can apply for a chance to attend camp for a one week period. The cost of operating Camp Michi-MAC is defrayed by the generous support of parents and caregivers, Asthma and Allergy Foundation of American-Michigan Chapter (AAFA-MI), Michigan Allergy and Asthma Society (MAAS), and community support.
