Camryns 'Christmas in July VIP' Vacation Story

                   


{We were unable to obtain Photos of Camryns trip. Please read her story below.}

Camryn went on a Disney Cruise February 16, 2006. She enjoyed all of the Disney Characters on her cruise like, Mickey, Minnie and Pluto. Camryn happens to live in Central Florida near Disney and has been to Disney World several times. But that is not the main reason why OEC sent Camryn on her Disney Cruise.

The ship stopped in Nassau, Bahamas. There she saw her grandparents, the Darlings who reside in Nassau. They are the mother and father of Camryn's dad, Pfc. Norman Darling, KIA Iraq April 29, 2004. Camryn had not seen her grandparents since her father's funeral nearly two years ago. We at OEC are proud to have been a part of what was a very happy reunion for this family.

OEC is happy for Camryn and the other children who have experienced their OEC 'Christmas in July' VIP vacations.  But...

...there are still over one-thousand children who deserve their VIP vacation. If you would like to be a part of these very special experiences, please support our efforts to bring them all to Orlando Florida for their own Christmas in July' VIP vacation.

You can get a Christmas Gift to the child of a Fallen Soldier this Christmas.  You can support our troops who have made the Ultimate Sacrifice by helping Fallen Troops children during the coming Christmas Holidays.  Children of Troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan have suffered the grief and trauma of losing a parent in the War in Iraq and the War in Afghanistan.  Your help for these US Military families is so important to show our respectful appreciation to these very special children for their sacrifice for our country.  Christmas for our troops children will not be the same but in the coming Holiday season we, the American people, can help bring a little extra Christmas cheer to these ‘precious lil heros’.
