Camp H.O.N.O.R.
- June 10th – 15th (Campers) / 8th – 15th (Staff)
- Chauncey Ranch Camp – 18970 E Old Sycamore Rd, Mayer, AZ 86333
H.O.N.O.R. is an acronym that stands for Hemophiliacs Overcoming New Obstacles Resourcefully. Therefore, our camp is designed to allow children with medical needs the opportunity to experience camp activities such as canoeing, camping, sports, team building games, arts, and crafts in a loving environment that can meet the special needs of each child.
Established in 1994, Camp HONOR is open to children ages 8-17 from the inherited bleeding disorder community. This includes those who have hemophilia and von Willebrand disease. We also partner with the Bill Holt clinic to better help serve the HIV portion of our community.
We believe that a bleeding disorder affects the entire family. Therefore, also included are children of parents with bleeding disorders as well as brothers and sisters. Siblings become an important part of the caring community when they share the common experience of Camp HONOR.
In some way, every child at camp is affected by a bleeding disorder at some point in their life. Our goal is to create a supportive environment at camp that becomes a perfect conduit for healthy living and wellness. At Camp HONOR we promote personal independence and foster community spirit.
Be a Camp Counselor
Every year, Camp HONOR aims to staff hard-working, enthusiastic counselors that share a particular interest in the bleeding disorder community. We find that these individuals often become a member of our camp family and continue to be on staff year after year.
If you are interested in becoming a staff member at Camp Honor, please read the Staff Manual, paying particular attention to the job descriptions for the position you are interested in.
Once you have completed reading the staff manual, please register through Camp Docs and fill out your application. Once your application is approved, you will have access to finish your staff registration.
