Hi AMSA Members!
Welcome back AMSA members. We hope you had a fun and relaxing winter break. We’re all starting out our semester with new goals and new challenges. For those of you who would like to start something new, or perhaps continue with something great, you should consider volunteering with Camp Boggy Creek this spring. Boggy Creek’s aim is to enrich the lives of children who have chronic or life threatening illnesses by helping them create camping experiences that are fun, empowering, and memorable while also being physically safe and medically sound. Camp Boggy Creek gives children the opportunity to accomplish feats and enjoy activities they are otherwise incapable of. Watching a little girl confined to a wheel chair lighten up as she enters a pool, will not only change her life, but yours tremendously too. At Boggy Creek everyone has a chance to be a kid, and we encourage you to join in on the fun! Check your schedule this semester and find a weekend that’s good for you and APPLY! The link below is a copy of the Boggy Creek calendar.

We promise you will not regret it. You will learn from your experience things indescribable and gain a new appreciation of life. Many AMSA e-board and directors have spent time at Camp Boggy Creek, so please let us know if you have questions.
