About this Event
Join us on Thursday, March 13, 2025 at the Kroc Center Greenville (424 Westfield St, Greenville, SC 29601) for our March Lunch & Learn featuring Camp Cole.
Camp Cole, located in Eastover, SC, is named in memory of Cole Sawyer, an 11-year-old boy who lost his battle to cancer in 2004. During his battle, Cole and his family were inspired by a local camp that catered exclusively to children with cancer. Cole’s experience at the camp made him forget about being sick and remember how to have fun—to laugh, play, and make new friends.
When Cole passed away, his mother Stacy vowed to build a unique camp in his memory so that more children living with critical illnesses could experience the joy of an overnight camp the way Cole had. A few years into planning, Stacy unexpectedly passed away.
Together, with support from a generous community of friends and followers, Cole’s older sister, Kelsey, and her good friend Margaret Deans forged ahead with Stacy’s dream.
Today, the spirits of Cole and Stacy shine brightly across the beautiful Camp Cole campus, lighting the way for future campers.
