A nonprofit worked this weekend to support families of ALS patients by providing a camp for kids.
ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, causes limited physical functioning. Average life expectancy is between two to five years.
Hope Loves Company provides a free camp for children and teens whose lives have been changed after a parent or family member is diagnosed with ALS or are living with someone who currently has it.
One rainy Saturday did not stop the kids at the camp at Fairview Lake from having a good time, but that is what this particular camp is about --- turning rainy days into hope.
