Abstract: This article describes the Victory Junction Gang Camp, a not-for-profit, NASCAR-themed camp for children with chronic medical conditions that serves 24 different disease groups. The mission of the camp is to give children life-changing camping experiences that are exciting, fun, and empowering in a safe and medically sound environment. While doing so, the campers get to meet other kids just like themselves, sometimes for the first time in their lives. Victory Junction has seen more than 4,500 campers since its opening in 2004 and is always free of charge. Most people do not realize that Adam Petty is the single most influential aspect of the Victory Junction Gang Camp. To understand that statement, a sequence of events is presented.
