Family Camp
The 10th Family Camp Session for CCFSC families was held on June 5 - 7 at the Thousand Pines Christian
Camp in Crestline. The 3 day-2 night adventure began with a meet ‘n’ greet in the Malt Shop with all
the kids and their parents. The kids enjoyed an evening of group games to get to know each other
and that same evening we had a campfire filled with lots of songs, fun games, and yummy ‘smores.
There were plenty of activities for everyone to enjoy throughout the weekend. Families enjoyed arts &
crafts, courage courses, climbing wall and zip line, paintball, laser tag and outdoor games. Thousand
Pines treated our group to fresh baked cinnamon rolls followed by a night hike. We would like to give
a special thank you to our Family Camp Sponsors: the Silver Dollar Club and Thousand Pines Camp!
Thank you for offering us the opportunity to share a fun-filled weekend with the families. We would
also like to thank the wonderful staff at Thousand Pines for their kindness and care, and our volunteer
chaperones that helped us make this weekend of fun possible.

BOARD MEMBERS
We are committed to offering support to oncology families so they feel less isolated, frustrated and fearful in dealing with
the problems that cancer can manifest within the family structure. By the age of 20, one child or teen in 330 is diagnosed
in the United States. More children die of cancer than of any other disease, including asthma, diabetes, cystic fibrosis,
congenital anomalies and AIDS, COMBINED.

Picnic
Childhood Cancer Foundation of Southern California, CCFSC, together with the California Correctional Peace Officers Association provided a Family Picnic for families with a child with cancer at Hunter Hobby Park in Riverside, CA. Picnic was
held Sunday, June 14th from 11:30am-3:00pm. CCFSC provides this event in hopes of brightening the day for not only
the cancer patients but the entire family.
Children with cancer and their families enjoyed a fun filled day where they participated in Water Balloon Tosses, Three
Legged Races, Tug-A-War, and much more. The Live Steamers provided free train rides for participating families and the
California Correctional Peace Officers Association barbecued delicious hamburgers and hot dogs for all to enjoy. We were
also treated to delicious homemade ‘aguas frescas’ from the Escobar family. Families escape from their daily lives at the
hospital and have a great time in an ‘old-fashioned’ family picnic. There’s no better medicine than being surrounded by
family, friends, and good food!

“Chip Away at Cancer” Golf Tournament
Dominick Gonzalez was diagnosed with cancer at the very young age of 5 months. Through his diagnosis, Childhood Cancer Foundation was fortunate to have had the opportunity
to offer support services to the family while he was in treatment. We are pleased to share that he is doing very well and, a family friend has coordinated an anual charity golf
tournament, Chip Away at Cancer, to benefit Childhood Cancer Foundation in order to continue providing the services that once helped Dominick and his family through their
journey through treatment.
The supporters of the tournament helped raise an amazing $6,000 in support of our programs! Childhood Cancer Foundation is very grateful to Jonathan Quijano, the tournament
director, and the Gonzalez family for their support and dedication to children like Dominick.

Candle Lighting Ceremonies
Every year Childhood Cancer Foundation invites families to join together in the month of September for two Candle Lighting
Ceremonies in honor of children who have or had cancer. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month and we strive
to bring as much community awareness as we can throughout the entire month.
The first Candle Lighting Ceremony was held in the breezeway between Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital and
the Medical Center on September 2nd. We invite childhood cancer patients currently in treatment and those who are
now survivors to join us in a ceremony to mark the continued effort we will put together in their honor. Families join
together and visit with families who are recently diagnosed and offer their support. Others meet with old friends they
haven’t seen in a while.
Later in the month on September 17th, we came together once again this time to honor the memory of the children
we’ve lost but love and admire. Every family has experienced a loss and this offers them a moment to share memories,
stories, and encouragement to everyone who understands what they are going through. We light four candles: one for
our sadness, one for our memories, one for our love, and one for our commitment and then release balloons that carry
messages of love, of longing, and of hope to one day be with them again.
We would like to thank the National Charity League for offering their support and sponsoring the refreshments at the
Candle Lighting Ceremonies.
Ceremonias de Velas
Cada año La Fundación de Cáncer Infantil invita a todas las familias en el mes de Septiembre para dos Ceremonias de
Velas en honor a los niños que tienen o han tenido cáncer. Septiembre es el mes del Conocimiento de cáncer infantil y
nos esforzamos por traer conocimiento a la comunidad durante todo el mes.
La primera Ceremonia de Velas fue en la brisa en medio del Hospital de Niños de la Universidad de Loma Linda y el Centro
Médico el 2 de septiembre. Invitamos a las familias que tienen a un hijo/a actualmente recibiendo tratamiento y los que
son ahora sobrevivientes para acompañarnos en una ceremonia, en la cual marcamos el esfuerzo continuó que ponemos
junto en su honor. Las familias que tienen tiempo en su batalla contra el cáncer visitan con familias que recientemente
han sido diagnosticadas y ofrecen su apoyo. Otros se reencuentran con amigos viejos que no han visto por mucho tiempo.
Para el 17 de septiembre, nos reunimos una vez más para honorar esta vez la memoria de todos los niños que admiramos
y amamos que hemos perdido. Cada familia ha sido afectada por una pérdida y esta ceremonia les ofrece un momento de
compartir memorias, historias, y de dar ánimo a todos quienes comprenden sus sentimientos. Encendemos cuatro velas:
una para nuestra tristeza, una para nuestras memorias, una para nuestro amor, y una para nuestro compromiso. Al final
soltamos globos que llevan mensajes de amor, anhelo, y esperanza a un día estar junto con ellos.
Querremos dar gracias a la Liga Nacional de Caridad por ofrecer su apoyo y patrocinar los refrescos en la ceremonia de velas.

Dear families and friends of CCFSC,
I feel that I have completed one journey and started another. In 1985 my husband, Bernie, and I heard those words that all oncology parents will never forget;
“your child has cancer.” With that diagnosis, our journey began. With support from our family, friends, physicians and pediatric oncology staff we fought our
battle to help our son survive. What I realize now is that that diagnosis changed my life. When my son became well I decided to offer whatever help I could to
other families experiencing the same battle. That was 30 years ago. I have been blessed to help develop Childhood Cancer Foundation of Southern California
(formerly Candlelighters) into what it is today.
I am overwhelmed at the kindness of many families to allow me to interact with them at their most difficult time in life. I am grateful to our many supporters
over the years that have provided the opportunity to offer the many programs, activities and support to thousands of families. I leave the position of executive director with a heavy heart, but a heart filled with accomplishment. I am not sure where the next
journey will lead me, but my memories with all the special children and their families will always be
with me.
I will continue to participate at many of the family activities. And I am pleased to announce that
Stephanie Avila has accepted the Executive Director position. She has been with CCFSC for 8 years and
will do a great job.
Thank you to all for your kindness and support,
Armida Kersey
Siento que he completado un viaje y comenzado otro. En 1985 mi esposo, Bernie, y yo escuchamos
esas palabras que todos los padres de oncología nunca olvidaremos; “Su hijo tiene cáncer.” Con ese
diagnóstico, nuestro camino comenzó. Con el apoyo de nuestros familiares, amigos, médicos y personal de oncología pediátrica luchamos nuestra batalla para ayudar a nuestro hijo a sobrevivir. Lo que
me he dado cuenta es que ese diagnóstico cambió mi vida. Cuando mi hijo se recuperó, decidí ofrecer
toda la ayuda que pude para otras familias que empezaban la misma batalla. Eso fue hace 30 años.
He sido bendecida en ayudar a desarrollar la Fundación de Cáncer Infantil del Sur de California (antes
Candlelighters) en lo que es hoy.
Estoy agradecida con la nobleza de las familias que me permitieron interactuar con ellos en su momento más difícil en la vida. Doy las gracias a nuestros
muchos partidarios en los últimos años que han proporcionado la oportunidad de ofrecer los muchos programas, actividades y apoyo a miles de familias. Me
retiro del cargo de directora ejecutiva con un corazón pesado, pero un corazón lleno de logros. No estoy segura donde me llevará este próximo viaje, pero mis
recuerdos con todos los niños y sus familias siempre estarán conmigo.
Voy a seguir participando en muchas de las actividades con las familias. Y me complace anunciar que Stephanie Avila ha aceptado la posición de Directora
Ejecutiva. Ella tiene 8 años con la fundación y va a hacer un gran trabajo.
Gracias a todos por su amabilidad y apoyo,
Armida Kersey

skyzone
Sky Zone is the world’s first indoor trampoline park. They’re the inventors of “fun fitness” and the makers of trampolines as far as the eye can see. This year Teen Connection
hosted its first trip to the trampoline park where the group enjoyed an evening of mid-air excitement, trampoline dodgeball, foam pit and more.
This was definitely a thrill-seaking treat for all.

Halloween Horror
Nights
With the heritage of making horror films for over 80 years, Universal Studios Hollywood has
the most terrifying live Halloween event in Los Angeles! Halloween Horror Nights offered
a haunting new slate of nightmares featuring the most authentic scares from some of the
biggest horror properties in film and TV. Teen Connection took part in the horror nights
and as a group we conquered all fears! We walked through mazes, enjoyed some of the
rides and took pictures with the monsters and their Halloween displays.

Lakers Game
Teen Connection enjoyed the Maccabi Haifa at LA Lakers game on Sunday, October 11th
where the Lakers dominated the game and took the win for the evening. It was a first
time visit to a Lakers Game and the Staples Center itself for many of our group. The group
enjoyed dinner at King Taco, a Mexican fast food favorite, ending the evening with the
Lakers Game.

Cosmic Bowling
The teens along with chaperones Kristin and Stephanie started the night with dinner
at Jersey Mike’s in Redlands then headed off to Empire Bowl to test our bowling skills.
Music, lights, bowling, and fun! It was a fun and competitive game. We hope our new
teens had a great time and hope to see everyone again soon! Thank you to our chaperones
for a great night of fun in town!
