Camp Yellow Ribbon in Oconomowoc caters to needs of children whose parents are deployed overseas

Children of soldiers overseas can toss aside their worries and troubles and just be kids at Easter Seals' Camp Yellow Ribbon in Oconomowoc. It's a camp that caters to specific needs of kids whose parents are or have been deployed for military service.

Parents appreciate the opportunity Camp Yellow Ribbon offers to their children.

"My children had a difficult time with that. My son suffers from PTSD and so he was my main focus on getting him around other kids who have been some of the things that he's been through," said Carissa Guinta, a mom who has two kids at the camp.

Easter Seals is known for providing day camps for disabled young adults and children on a regular basis. The organization saw the need with military children and wanted to fill it.

Camp Yellow Ribbon is free to the kids.
