Flight Camp

An unforgettable adventure for young adult cancer survivors (ages 18–26) who dream of flying! In partnership with TransMedics Aviation, Big Sky Kids offers four campers the chance to learn to fly while experiencing the spectacular beauty of Montana from a whole new perspective. Over five action-packed days, campers team up with their certified flight instructors, complete real pre-flight checks, and take to the sky each morning to learn aircraft controls and basic maneuvers. Many even perform their own takeoffs and landings by the end of the week! Afternoons are filled with fun, themed lunches, behind-the-scenes tours of Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport—including emergency operations, the control tower, and private jet hangars—plus ground lessons on aerodynamics, landing tips, and cross-country flight planning. The week wraps up with an epic graduation flight to Jackson Hole, WY, soaring over Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Camp Braveheart

Kayak, ride horses, fish, swim, create arts and crafts, eat s’mores, and more! Camp Braveheart is designed for campers aged 5 to 10 and their immediate families. Children in this age bracket that are post-treatment are welcome to apply! We’ll gather for 5 nights at Hyalite Youth Camp, a rustic facility located on the beautiful shores of Hyalite Reservoir just outside of Bozeman. Camp Braveheart is medically supervised by a nurse, and the only cost to families is transportation to and from your home.

Big Sky Adventure

You’ll be forever changed by this unforgettable experience of the beautiful outdoors. Big Sky Adventure Camp is designed for kids ages 11 to 18 who are still in treatment for their cancer or who have recently completed their treatment, plus one parent or guardian each. This unique camp includes a float on the Yellowstone river, horseback riding, white-water rafting, a day trip to Yellowstone National Park, and many more exciting excursions. Big Sky Adventure Camp is medically supervised by an oncologist, and is an all-expense paid vacation, including travel.

Young Adult Retreat

Young Adult Retreat (YAR) is designed for young adults ages 18 to 26 whose cancer is in remission. For a full week, campers are immersed in adventurous outdoor activities, the camaraderie of a small group, and opportunities to develop unique and powerful leadership skills. YAR is a traveling camp with an itinerary that changes from year to year, so returning campers are given the chance to see multiple facets of Montana’s beauty. This retreat is medically supervised by a volunteer nurse, and the only cost for our YAR campers is transportation to and from their homes.
