Winter Break Camp in Idaho: SIBS Weekend Fun

SIB’S Weekend: So Important Brothers & Sisters

Our SIBS Weekend is held in February and is for any brother or sister of a sibling who has or has had cancer. The free weekend takes place in the winter and offers a retreat for those siblings, with the weekend being “all about them!” So much attention is given to the brother or sister with cancer, so we are excited we can offer them a special weekend of spoiling and having fun!

A session is held with a trained professional in case there are any children who need to air any emotions – all in a safe environment. Snow sledding, art projects, and Winter Olympics are on the agenda, all contributing for a magical weekend.

Testimonials

  • "We love it! As a parent I love it because the people there care as much about my son as I do. They understand and empathize with the anxiety a parent goes through when entrusting their child, especially a medically fragile child, to another for days. CMM is thorough in obtaining the needed information to take care of my son but at the same time makes his week at camp a wonderful time when he just gets to be a "normal" kid.  The camp is just the right size so that all the counselors get to know the kids and it becomes like a family! Camp Magical Moments is nothing short of magical!" -Lori Kramer

  • "I love being able to give back to the camp family that has meant so much to my family! As a cancer survivor sibling, I love that I get to now help other kids learn and grow through their experience as a volunteer at a truly magical place. The entire family is supported, remembered, and LOVED, and I'm grateful to be a part of that as a volunteer.  At Camp Magical Moments, you truly become part of the family, whether you are a camper, family member, or volunteer, and you are connected for life." -Cyri
