Their program includes arts and crafts, in which they work with mosaic tiles, popsickle sticks used ; fruit bowls and other articles, shells are placed on small boards to form pictures, all of which are colourful. Over the camp the young sweet voices of girls can be heard. They put expression and enthusiasm into their singing and everything they do. They have a keen interest in games and sports, such as table tennis, baseball, swimming, and they love a barbecue. It is very interesting to observe the girls in the pool. The counsellors teach them different swimming styles Each of the six comfortable cabins accommodates twelve campers and two counsellors. The walls of the cabins show that the girls are TV fans, for their favourite stars are everywhere. There are twentyone buildings on the camp grounds, including a recreation hall where films are enjoyed, the infirmary, craft building and the cafeteria. They have a stockade, which is an enclosure of logs where they have campfire programs, sing-songs and vespers. We met a lot of new and interesting friends some of whom are going to be our pen pals, Everyone enjoys fresh air and sunshine and fellowship. This camp, and others like it, help the other girls forget their disabilities by seeing the progress of others. Many children, over -six years of age, delight themselves in two or three weeks camp holiday fun each year provided by local Easter Seal clubs and society. I think everyone should support such a wonderful group as we
