 cancer. It's a very scary word. But an outstanding treatment facility was here at home. I was led to the Lawson Cancer Center. As a nurse practitioner at the Lawson Cancer Center, we are champions for our patients. I am so happy for Robert. The treatment worked. Kentucky State Police is holding their annual Trooper Island Camp from June 5th through June 9th, but applications are open now. This is a free camping experience that KSP hosts for children with activities such as fishing, canoeing and archery. The camp is made possible thanks to year-round planning and fundraising. So our Trooper Island is a summer camp that's completely free to the campers. This island is funded solely on fundraisers such as our Raffle Truck Giveaway or different fundraisers that local posts do. No tax dollars are used for the island. It costs us around $300 per kid to be able to take a child to the island each year. Coast Island takes 32 children each year. 16 boys and 16 girls. Hazard also takes 32 each year. We take them down together. We pick them up here on Monday morning at which point we'll pick up the hazard kids on the way. We'll stop and eat lunch in London and then we'll go on down to the island. Monday once they get there everybody kind of gets settled and then throughout the week they're going to learn how to fish, canoe, archery and just different activities in the evening with the troopers. We have a trooper swim where we go out and swim with them all evening. We have a night where we cook out and we all just kind of hang around and talk and just different activities to kind of build the bond between the children so they make those friendships but also the friendships with the troopers that they see working here in their communities. Each of the children are handpicked by KSP officers to attend the camp. For more information and how to apply visit trooperisland.org. There's a lot of fundraisers that go into it and a lot of time and effort that go into raising the money bill to take these children but to be able to go down and see the kids see the smiles on their faces when they're down on the island having fun it makes it all worthwhile. The island is an income based camp so you have to be made an income requirement to be able to go and we're just trying to make sure that we take children that may not have the opportunity to go on vacation or may not have the opportunity to go to some other kind of summer camp this summer.
