ABOUT OUR EVENT
Camp Casco is celebrating 10 years of incredible camp experiences for children affected by cancer by throwing a camp-inspired cocktail party perfect for every kid at heart.
Campfires & Cocktails is our annual party to wrap up an amazing summer and raise funds for the new year. This is no stuffy event- we’re bringing all of the fun and magic of our camps to downtown Boston for an uplifting night filled with light and laughter. We're seeking some live music to help us make this event our best one yet!
Entertainment includes:
Activity stations
Appetizers and custom cocktails
S’mores bar
Silent auction
Friend For Life award presentation
Gorgeous views of downtown Boston
EVENT DETAILS
Campfires & Cocktails will be held on Thursday, October 24, 2024 at the University of Massachusetts Club in Boston, Massachusetts. The event will run from 7-10 PM, and we would be seeking live music for 7-8 PM and/or 9-10 PM. (We will present an award and run a paddle raise from 8-9 PM, so no live music is needed during that window.)
SCOPE OF VOLUNTEER DUTIES
We're looking for a volunteer musician (or musicians) to perform live music to entertain our guests. We are hoping to recreate the magic of a campfire throughout our event, so music sung on a guitar around a campfire is the vibe we're going for. Songs should be family-friendly as we have guests of all ages. Most importantly, you will get to be part of a fun and heartwarming evening out that will benefit local childhood cancer patients, survivors, and families.
QUALIFICATIONS
Interested volunteers should be at least 18 years of age and able to attend the in-person event in downtown Boston on October 24. If you're ready to help us throw the party of the year for kids fighting cancer, send us a message or email us at hello@campcasco.org! We'd love to hear from you.

Mission Statement
Camp Casco creates amazing camp experiences that build lifelong connections for children with cancer and their families.
Description
Camp Casco builds community for childhood cancer patients, survivors, and families in New England through amazing camp experiences. We create a space for kids to reclaim their childhood- to laugh and play. All of our campers have been affected by childhood cancer, and this unifying environment is liberating. At camp, cancer instantly becomes the least remarkable thing about you - a welcome relief for those who have felt defined by this label in everyday life.
Research shows that summer camps for children with cancer reduce disease-related anxiety, improve self-image, increase independence, build social skills, and ultimately improve psychosocial outcomes. We provide these benefits to New England kids free-of-cost, giving patients, survivors, and siblings the chance to make lasting memories and build lifelong friendships.
