Smith Graphic Design: Trampoline Design Illustration: Erin Higgins Photography: Emo Castle, Jim Smith, friends & family Get Inspired, Go Inspire 5 Double H Ranch Annual Report 2008 letter from the board chairman 2008 was an inspiring and fulfilling year. Despite market upheaval and an uncertain economy, each of our summer residential campers ‘Got Inspired to Go Inspire’ during their Week in the Woods. The Double H winter students and families had an ‘awesome’ season on the slopes taking advantage of Charley’s Chalet, the new ski lodge. The Double H Spring and Fall Family-Based Program participants could not say enough about the program staff and volunteers who supported their weekend stays. Because of you we met our goal of securing a $3.1 million annual operating budget. Our Board remained focused, working alongside Max on addressing the organization’s strategic issues with the goal of enhancing organizational and financial sustainability. We are accountable not only to the over 1,750 children and family members we serve annually, but to meeting the expectations of Get Inspired, Go Inspire our loyal individuals, foundations, organizations and corporations who partner with us to deliver our mission. This year I’ve had the privilege of spending time with the multifaceted Double H family. I’m enlightened by interactions with the year-round staffers who wear many hats as they play numerous roles and hold in high esteem the record number of 209 winter volunteer instructors, National Ski Patrol and lodge hosts who bring magic to the slopes. I have great respect for the incredibly talented and committed 125 summer staff members who deliver an unforgettable week of Adirondack adventure to our summer campers, and I am in awe of the 1,500 medical, individual and community volunteers. The pages upon pages of names of generous donors who helped us reach this year’s goal of $3.1 million make me realize that my voice is just one in 6 thousands… and although the Board is accountable for executing the bylaws, I recognize that our success lies with these extraordinary groups of people who come together to create the magic. Thank you for a terrific 2008. Victor Hershaft, Board Chairman Double H Ranch Annual Report 2008 message from the executive director While we are all deeply saddened to lose an extraordinary man and our co-founder of the Double H Ranch, we need to celebrate the life and legacy of this beloved hero. Paul Newman’s passion and selfless commitment to the welfare of families and children living with serious medical illnesses have inspired people everywhere. When Paul partnered with Charley Wood in 1992 you could see the enthusiasm and pure joy in the eyes of both of these men as they created the second Hole in the Wall Camp, the Double H Ranch. When these men interacted with the children you could sense their delight in knowing that they were making positive and lasting changes in the lives of these amazing kids. As a bonus, their lives changed as well and we will continue to fulfill their vision in providing the highest quality of programs and medical services as a tribute to them and their extraordinary legacy. Get Inspired, Go Inspire As we all know, 2008 was filled with unique economic challenges and opportunities for all not-for-profit organizations. The Double H Ranch is uniquely challenged with the reality that we will never charge for direct services, but we are also blessed in many ways. Our community has embraced our critical mission since inception in 1992, and I truly believe that our society has renewed their commitment to continue to dedicate their time and resources in helping those who are less fortunate. Our product is “changing lives” and with this comes an incredible sense of responsibility and obligation. Childhood illnesses are unfortunately not going to disappear, so we must constantly evaluate our key strategic issues and core initiatives while monitoring the components that make up our success. 7 We should always reflect on how we have gotten where we are today and look to the future with receptive outlooks and creative thinking. Together, we will achieve financial sustainability to ensure that the life-changing gifts of the Double H Ranch will always be afforded to our amazing kids and families. Thank you for believing in our mission and potential to make positive changes in the lives of others. Max Yurenda, CEO/Executive Director Double H Ranch Annual Report 2008 medical diagnoses we serve From the medical support staff: “The Body Shop looks the same as it did fifteen years ago; the difference now is that the medical staff can provide more advanced medical treatment. We can treat a painful sickle cell crisis on-site with intravenous narcotics. The equipment is more sophisticated which means that kids don’t have to be sent off to the hospital as frequently.” — Dr. Ray Get Inspired, Go Inspire Summer 2008 (by number) Cell Anemia ■ Sickle Disorders ■ Neuromuscular Disorder ■ HIV/Immune ■ Hemophilia Blood Disorders ■ Other Diseases ■ Other ■ Cancer ■ Leukemia Diseases ■ Rare Disease ■ Mitochondrial ■ Collagen Vascular Disease “...though the population of children with HIV screening is decreasing, the spectrum of illnesses that the Double H serves has increased. The diagnoses of the children I see at the Double H have grown. In the beginning, most of the children suffered from HIV, sickle cell disease, leukemias, and solid tumors. The diagnoses now include children with a wide variety of blood disorders, neuromuscular diseases, genetic disorders and metabolic diseases. And, the entire medical staff takes care of many more campers and counselors per camp session than we did fourteen years ago.” 21 30 Raymond Walsh MD, aka Dr. Ray, has worked in the Pediatric Care Unit of the Children’s Hospital at Albany Medical Center since 1988, caring for children facing acute life-threatening illnesses.

We just wanted to take a moment and express our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for the great time our daughter Melanie had at camp during Session 2. From the very first second upon entering the camp grounds and being greeted with applause and cheering to the tearful singing and hugs good-bye we knew she was in good hands. In fact although you tell people that Double H stands for Health & Happiness—we know the secret (shhh, we won’t tell). Double H really stands for Heavenly Hands! Thank you for making a difference—making a difference in the lives of the campers who attend, like Melanie and also making a difference in the lives of the families too (like ours!). We are telling every one of Mel’s adventures—whitewater rafting, overnight tent camping, and zip-lining. We have tried to always include Melanie in everything we do—to not let her physical condition prevent her spirit from experiencing all that life has to offer. She is a blessing to us. She has transformed our lives and so often the lives of those she meets. We have been blessed by all of you from the nurses, to the maintenance worker, to front office staff, to the Board of Directors, the corporate partners, to the 2nd grader reading books to raise funds, and especially the wonderful counselors in the Bear Cabin. Thank you from all of us! —Tim, Valerie, Lisa, Melanie, Andrew & Nicole; The Sember Family 10 Double H Ranch Annual Report 2008 Get Inspired...

Wood Foundation and the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps to meet the growing popularity of our winter program, coupled with the commitment and generosity of many more supporters, has allowed us to make this dream a reality for the Double H Ranch. On January 5, 2008, we kicked off the 11th season of the Adaptive Winter Sports Program with the celebration of a brand-new ski lodge that will enable us to give twice the number of children the opportunity to learn a life-long skill and experience the magic of snow. This season we served a record 168 students and 400 family members. “Nick can ski on his own! He can manage a race— make turns NY and stop (most of the time).

To send her to this program confident she would be safe and treated normally, well it’s what parents of children with a disability dream of. Chloe’s brother, Issac, also completed the Double H program. She is who we Get Inspired, Go Inspire always hoped she would be; a skier with a handicap, not a handicapped skier.” Chloe’s Mom and Dad 3.

From: Sharon Klob Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2008 8:41 PM To: Tara Bogucki Subject: Thank you AGAIN!!! Tara, Thank you and all the Double H staff again for a terrific Autism Family weekend. Everyone at Double H went out of their way to make it such a memorable experience for us. I don’t think I could ever express in words how grateful we have been. Aaron really enjoyed himself. He is like the energizer bunny and it’s hard to get him to stop, and yet he was actually exhausted after all the fun at Double H. He LOVED IT and I loved it too!! It’s an incredible bonding experience for us. It’s so nice to be treated and cared for in the way the staff has shown their concern for us. Thank you too, for the DVD slide show. The songs on the DVD are so touching as well. You all have been so thoughtful. I’m sure all of the families will treasure their DVDs! We are looking forward to hopefully be able to come to Double H for the Winter Program. Hopefully, our 17 year old will be able to join us this winter before he goes to college the following year. I look forward to Double H like most people would look forward to a Disney World vacation. Seriously!!! I get that excited inside!!
