Keencheefoonee Road Race supporting Camp Sunshine
About Keencheefoonee Road Race
The Keencheefoonee Road Race is Camp Sunshine's largest annual fundraiser. This special volunteer-led event is held during each week of Summer Camp. Camp counselors take part in a 5K run or a 2K walk to raise money that helps send children with cancer to a magical week of Summer Camp.
Named for the road that leads to camp, the Keencheefoonee Road Race was started in 2001 by a group of counselors who were missing the Peachtree Road Race while at camp and saw the opportunity to rally the support of their friends and family. Over the last 22 years, the Road Race has raised more than $4.5 million!
The funds raised though the Road Race directly support the costs of providing two weeks of Summer Camp for our junior and teen campers, who attend camp at no cost to their families. At camp, children with cancer enjoy all the fun of a traditional summer camp in a supportive environment. A week at Camp Sunshine gives campers the opportunity to feel " normal" and experience activities that instill confidence, hope, and encouragement.
We invite you to join in and lend your support to the 2023 Keencheefoonee Road Race!
