The American Cancer Society's Courageous Kids Day event provides 'a day away from cancer' free of charge to hundreds of young cancer patients and their families. Families came from throughout the state for a day at California's Great America in Santa Clara. The event is an extra-special, fun-packed day for the the children and their families, allowing them to put aside some of the stress of treatment and have fun together. The kids spent the day enjoying amusement rides, a picnic lunch, balloon toss, hula hoop contest, quiltmaking, arts & crafts, family portraits and an obstacle course.
