The nonprofit organizations whose mission it is to enhance the lives of those with special needs also use the camp for retreats. </font></p> <p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">CFA received its first campers in 1998 and today serves more than 6,000 people each year from more than 50 different organizations, realizing its dream of becoming a year-round camp and recreation facility. The summer program serves about 2,500 campers and volunteers, and in the fall and spring the camp provides weekday recreational therapy and weekend retreats for people of all ages with special needs. </font></p> <p><a href="http://campforall.org/">www.</a><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"><a href="http://campforall.org/">campforall.org</a></font></p></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> </table> <br> <table width="95%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" align="center" bgcolor="#000000"> <tr> <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <table width="98%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2" align="center"> <tr> <td><img src="images/ca_pal_logo.jpg" width="256" height="108"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"> <U>California PAL (Police Activities League)</U></font></b></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p><em>The bond between cops and kids &#8230; because every kid needs a PAL.</em> <br> <br> <font size="2">Comprised of over 121 individual PAL chapters located throughout the State of California, California PAL implements a variety of educational and athletic activities at the local level to engage youth ages 5-25 in positive, wholesome and character building activities in well-supervised and safe settings.
