Children's Burn Camp
Founded in 1997, the Midwest Children's Burn Camp is a camp for burn-injured children ages 6-19 where they can forget about their scars for a week. The camp offers a safe and supportive environment where young burn survivors can have fun and form new friendships. Activities enjoyed at the camp include zip-lining, kayaking, canoeing, tubing, archery, crafts, and even a 110-foot waterslide into the lake. Campers learn a "can do" attitude and focus on the beautiful person they are on the inside to foster a positive self-image. |

In December 2011, members of Miller County Ambulance District also joined Local 3987.If you enjoy playing softball as much as you like boating the Lake of the Ozarks, give Brandon Pharr a call at 636-299-8443 to get your team signed up for this incredible event. For those of you that don't consider yourself sporty enough to compete, join your Lake of the Ozarks Boat Dealer, Iguana Boat Sales, in supporting this incredible tournament by heading to the ballpark to cheer the teams on.
