Camp kicked off with an incredible start. it's always a delight to see returning campers and first-timers alike. We have a fantastic week planned. After check-in, campers got to know their counselors and fellow campers. Everyone reconnected with friends and made news ones.

DAY 2
We had an incredible time with breakout sessions where we played mafia and did Dino artwork. Last night, we had a huge success with the variety show, and the kids were incredible with their skits. The kids are showing up and engaging in activities, and we’re all having a really good time.
Tonight, we’re having movie night, and then we’re going to play Mission: Impossible, which is an awesome game activity.

DAY 3
The third day of camp was an absolute blast, even with the rain! We skillfully modified some activities and moved others inside to keep the fun going. True to our Alaskan spirit, we never let the weather dampen our spirits! Kids got creative by building dinosaur models, diving into science experiments, and expressing themselves through art projects.

DAY 4
The fourth day of camp brought us some rain, but by afternoon, the sun finally peaked through the clouds. The day kicked off with an exciting polar plunge for a few brave individuals. During dinner, we celebrated our amazing campers by handing out awards. We were excited to present the Kyle Braun award, given to the most outstanding counselor as voted by their peers, Boots! Following dinner, we wrapped up the evening with our final night party, which was a blast for everyone!

LAST DAY!
On Friday, we came to a bittersweet close to our camp experience. The weather was absolutely gorgeous as we shared heartfelt goodbyes with both campers and counselors. A huge thank you goes out to the counselors, volunteers, King’s Lake, parents, and everyone else who put in their time and effort to make this year’s camp a success. We can hardly wait to see everyone again next year!
Often called “The week that lasts a lifetime” because of its profound effect on campers and counselors, Camp Frozen Chozen is a free weeklong camp for children that have completed first grade to 17 years old with opportunities for older participants through the Counselor program. Applicants must live in Alaska, have a diagnosed bleeding disorder (or a direct relationship with someone with a diagnosed bleeding disorder like sibling or parent), and be willing to follow all rules and regulations of camp. Not all applicants are necessarily selected to attend camp.
Camp Frozen Chozen is designed to allow children with special medical needs and their siblings the opportunity to experience camping and a variety of other traditional camp activities. Campers benefit from the educational programming regarding living with a bleeding disorder while having access to Alaska’s top bleeding disorder medical professionals.
Camp Frozen Chozen stresses personal independence and community.
Camp Frozen Chozen is a joint venture between the Alaska Hemophilia Association and the Alaska Bleeding Disorder Clinics and is funded through private donations and industry sponsorships.
