A Few Words About Us
Camp Circle O' Friends began in 1985 through the dedication and vision of one oncology nurse, Ann Schulman. She believed such a summer camp was crucial because all kids need a time to play, get dirty and be just a kid. Parents were given a brief break from the stresses of caregiving.
When so much of an ordinary childhood is taken when faced with this devastating illness, summer camp may be one of the few rights of passage we can provide for families. Anne Schulman, an inductee into the SaskSport Hall of Fame for her work with swimmers across the nation, was also made an officer of the Order of Canada in 2003, in recognition of her outstanding service to families and children. Camp Circle O' Friends is an embodiment and continuation of that service.
