Some 300 campers and 125 volunteers should be getting a break on parking fees.
They'll be attending Camp del Corazon, a medically supervised summer camp located in Catalina Island for children with congenital heart disease.
The non-profit organization provides all services to the children free of charge, since many of the families bear high medical care costs.
While Camp del Corazon will be hosting the campers and volunteers from Aug. 25 through Sept. 2, they will need to leave an estimated 60 vehicles near the boat launching location.
Camp del Corazon is requesting a fee waiver of the $5 daily parking fee -- a request that 4th District Supervisor Don Knabe plans to seek Tuesday, Aug. 12. from the Department of Beaches and Harbors. The total amount of the fee waiver is $3,000.
