At a Tucker County camp run by the Easter Seal Society and the Society for Crippled Children, 101 children aged seven to 17 with polio muscular dystrophy and other afflictions engage in daily activities, choose cabins, earn golden horseshoes, and take part in an overnight and Field Day. The program emphasizes learning by doing, safety, medicating through the camp nurse, and teamwork, with counselors, staff, and volunteers guiding each child’s participation. The camp operates with 24 hour state police supervision and insurance coverage, and runs two weeks each summer ending with celebrations and performances.
