Campfire Columbus Campaign

Campfire Columbus 2020 is cancelled

As disappointed as we are to cancel the event, we also keep in mind the importance of health and safety for all campers, families, donors, volunteers, and staff. As we begin to adjust our daily habits and choices, we are acutely aware of those who live with weakened immune systems and must make decisions like this every day, such as the children living with serious illnesses and their families who benefit from the healing and happiness camp provides.

Thank you for your steadfast support of Flying Horse Farms. With your permission, your committed event support through sponsorships or ticket purchases, will be applied to immediate camp needs.

We're grateful to count you as a friend of camp.

We look forward to seeing you around our campfire again soon!

We would like to thank all the Friendship Circle members, ticket holders, and sponsors of Campfire Columbus for their dedication and support of Flying Horse Farms:

Network Sponsor

Flying Horse Farms provides healing, transformative camp experiences for children with serious illnesses and their families - free of charge. Located on 200 acres in Mt. Gilead, Ohio, camp first opened its gates in 2010 and hosts about 900 children and families each year. The children who attend camp have illnesses including cancer, heart conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, blood disorders, asthma, gastrointestinal disorders and facial anomalies. 

At Flying Horse Farms, for a weekend or week at a time, being sick takes a backseat to being a kid. Fun is priority number one. Campers participate in activities like swimming, boating, fishing, archery, high ropes and arts and crafts. Campers receive first-rate care at our on-site health center, staffed 24/7 by medical professionals from children's hospitals across Ohio and beyond.

Flying Horse Farms is the first camp in the Midwest to become a full member of SeriousFun Children's Network. Founded in 1988 by actor, philanthropist and Ohio native Paul Newman, the Network is a community of independently managed and financed camps and programs creating opportunities for children with serious illnesses and their families. SeriousFun has evolved from one camp to a global community serving 864,000 children and families across five continents.

Flying Horse Farms is an ACA-Accredited Camp with the American Camp Association.
