a New York State-based organization providing camping experiences to children with cancer.

will display change-collection jars, sell t-shirts and paper balloons,
and host special fundraising events. Proceeds will be pooled and donated
to Camp Good Days and Special Times at a special ceremony during CONY's
annual Exposition and Trade Show in Lake George, NY, in November.

Good Days and Special Times is a not-for-profit organization dedicated
to improving the quality of life for children, adults and families whose
lives have been touched by cancer and other life challenges through
summer camping experiences and year-round events and activities.
This
past summer, more than 1,500 children, including children with cancer from
several foreign countries, participated in Camp Good Days, located on
the shores of Keuka Lake. All the programs and services at Camp Good
Days and Special Times are offered free of charge for the participants.
