Next Camp Info and Registration
Camp Bluebird offers time for listening and learning. It is designed to help reduce the isolation felt by many cancer patients. It is a time for being with friends and a time for caring and sharing. As one camper reflected on her Bluebird experience, “There’s a whole lot of love out here and I don’t think anyone can get too much love.”
Registration is currently closed. Our next spring camp will be held on April 25-27, 2025 at YMCA Camp Widjiwagon in Antioch, Tennessee. Registration will open approximately 6 weeks prior to camp.
Campers who register online will need to pay their registration fee of $50 via credit card.
All campers (first-time or returning) must complete an application in order to be considered for camp. Once your registration fee has been paid, you will receive an email with an Information Sheet that must be filled out for your registration to be complete.
If you have any questions, please contact Myrna Garrett at mxgarrett55@gmail.com or 615-306-0349.
Online registration and credit card payment is strongly preferred, however, if you need to pay by check, please contact Myrna Garret, camp director at 615-306-0349, or mxgarrett55@gmail.com.
Your application will be reviewed and, if an opening is available at camp, you will receive a letter with information about what you need to bring and arrival times.
Our policy for selection of attendees is as follows:
Campers are 18 years or older and have been diagnosed with cancer.
First time campers and newly diagnosed campers are invited first.
Previous campers still in treatment are next on the list.
Everyone else is placed on the list and selection is made according to number of times you have attended camp and years of survivorship.
Attendees must be able to perform activities of daily living independently.
