Want to book here?
The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp isn't taking bookings on Booka yet. Tell us you're interested and we'll email you once if it opens booking here. It also helps us reach the camp.
A free, medically-focused camp for children with serious illnesses, founded by Paul Newman in 1988 and part of the global SeriousFun Children's Network. Unlike every other camp in this set, it charges families nothing, which shapes its whole identity as a philanthropic rather than commercial camp — and makes conventional consumer-review benchmarking somewhat beside the point.
