WHERE You’ll BE Staying , whose your family pal and more!
Welcome to your Langley Family assignment page! Here you’ll find all the details that will help you feel right at home for the weekend, including your Family Pal (your dedicated chaperone), your cabin assignment, the family you’ll be sharing your space with, and your color group.
Each of these selections was thoughtfully arranged in hopes of creating a fun, supportive, and connected experience for your family!
Your Family Pal for Sun Escape 2026 is HANNAH WATKOSKE
Hannah has EPP and is coming back to Sun Escape Weekend for her third year volunteering.
When asked what volunteering at Sun Escape means to her, Hannah wrote “I wish I had something like Sun Escape when I was growing up with EPP. A weekend where kids are not just bonding over their photosensitivity but embracing it is exactly what we need in this community.”
Contacting Hannah
We encourage our families to reach out to their assigned volunteer via email prior to the start of camp to introduce themselves and get familiar prior to the start of Sun Escape. Lexi’s email is below. We have also shared with Lexi your family’s primary email address on file should she wish to also introduce herself or get in contact with you for anything Sun Escape related (ex: checking in with you about your expected arrival time)
Your Cabin & Color Grouping Information
At Sun Escape, each family is assigned a color group to help guide the flow of the weekend. While many activities are enjoyed together, your color determines the schedule your family will follow for certain program areas. Your cabin will match your assigned color, making it easy to stay connected with your group throughout the weekend.
Your assigned color group is GREEN
The Families in Your Green Group Will Be
The Girao Family - EPP (California)
The Ludwig Family - EPP (Pennsylvania)
The Kypreos Family - EPP (Wisconsin)
The Nagata Family - Lupus (Arizona)
The Ventrice Family - EPP (New Jersey)
The Langley Family - EPP (England)
The Baria Family - EPP (Wisconsin)
The Ketterer Family - EPP (Colorado)
You will be staying in our Michigan Cabin with the Ventrice Family
The Ventrice family is based out of New Jersey with an EPP daughter, Gia. “Our first year at camp last year was a wonderful experience,” Gia’s mother said. “Not only was it a bonding opportunity for our daughter but it also allowed us to finally talk with other parents who knew exactly the uniqueness of raising a family allergic to the sun.”
As a reminder, each family will have their own private side of the cabin which includes a bedroom and bathroom. Both families will share a common area. Should your family wish to connect with the Ventrice Family prior to Sun Escape, you can reach out to the family via their email address below. They have your email as well. While encouraged, connecting is not required.
