Join Magic Moments for an afternoon of celebration!

Magic Moments was established in 1984 with the sole purpose of bringing joy and happiness to children in Alabama with chronic life-threatening or acute life-altering medical conditions.

All past Magic Moments recipients and families are invited to this event, as well as anyone who has volunteered or been part of the Magic Moments family over the years! Please join us to honor and remember the children we have served as we celebrate 40 years of creating magic across Alabama!

Reach out to [email protected] to RSVP.

Magic Moments Family Camp fully accommodates the medical needs of the children we serve in a fun camp setting while also providing an opportunity for their families to relax and spend time together in a stress-free environment. The camp is open to children ages 4 to 18 who have received a magic moment. Magic Moments Family Camp is offered to our families at no cost and we accommodate approximately 65 children and their families each year.

The campground facilities at Children’s Harbor fully accommodate the physical limitations of many illnesses, allowing children opportunities such as swimming, boating, and fishing. Children and families also participate in classic summer camp activities, such as arts-and-crafts, group games, talent show competitions, and themed dances.

Camp is no less fun or important for the parents who attend. For many, the most enjoyable aspect of camp is the opportunity to talk with other parents gaining insights, suggestions and simple, but rare empathy from those who are going through similar situations. Because critically-ill children often cannot be left alone without a trained caregiver, camp provides the only respite many parents have from their exhausting responsibilities. Here they have the simple luxury of a few hours to enjoy the company of other adults while their child is safe and happy.

Family Camp is held every Memorial Day Weekend. If you have questions about Family Camp, contact our office at 205.777.5734.

We are always looking for Family Camp volunteers! If you live or vacation in the Lake Martin area and would like to offer boat rides or just a helping hand please contact our office at 205-777-5700.

Magic Moments thanks Children’s Harbor for generously providing the facilities for our Family Camp.
