Parents Getaway Weekend

November 18, 2023 - November 19, 2023

Parents Getaway Weekend is a weekend solely for the parents of patients and survivors who are 25 years old or younger and still live at home, as well as bereaved parents.  The weekend is planned for parents, by parents, to provide a safe place to share and support one another in a small group setting; and as an outlet to deal with the facts of cancer individually, and ultimately regain a sense of control.

Parents Weekend also provides the parents with spa-caliber treatment options such as massages, yoga, and make-up makeovers, local activities and shopping, along with a themed Saturday night dinner dance, 2023 theme is Luau!  All things parents of pediatric cancer patients don’t often longer have time to enjoy.
