“Utah’s premier scrapbooking event has been offering support and awareness to the epilepsy community for 15 years. As a beloved tradition, the Crop event continues to focus on getting kids with epilepsy to summer camp and provides the opportunity to expand the crafters knowledge, skills and friendships,” says Holly Ferrin, CAO/Executive Director.
As always, all proceeds from this landmark event directly benefit pre-teens and teens attending Camp Neuro Revolution and children ages 3-12 attending the newly introduced Boot Camp. We, at the EAU, are able to provide these life-changing experiences for youth with epilepsy all because you care!
