Day on the farm aids burn survivors in Maryland camp
Twenty one youths born survivors spent a farm day near Thurmont learning self esteem through games swimming and horse riding. Counselor Jonas Xaul from BRBC noted most campers were treated at Baltimore Regional Burn Center while others came from Children’s Hospital in Washington DC or a PA burn center. The weeklong camp near Rouzerville PA is funded by the BRBC Foundation and charities in several states. Mr Kalil said survivors cope with scars not as burn victims. Mr Haines and Robin fund the event to thank caregivers after his 1988 industrial burn.
