MD Camp Held
In Atlanta
Would you be willing to give
up eight days of your summer
vacation to cheer up a child
crippled with Muscular Dystro
phy? Many teenagers from
Atlanta, Georgia, South Caro
lina, and Alabama did just that.'
On Sunday, June 22, some
two hundred crippled children
and enthusiastic teenagers met
downtown to board three buses
leaving for Indian Springs.
Leaving with our motor cade
was Officer Don, Tubby and
Lester, Mr. Plx, Ray Cauthen,
Georgia’s Poster Child, and
other well known Georgia fi
gures.
Camp Ben J. Massell is a
beautiful camp with an excel
lent setting for our purpose.
Our entire purpose was to boost
the childs enthusiasm and to
maintain his flexibility. In
doing this, our dally activities
consisted of three well balanced
meals, various special activi
ties such as, field events,
horseback riding, swimming,
and arts and crafts.
The evenings brought exciting
moments to all. The special
appearances of Officer Don,
Mr. Plx, and Tubby and Les
ter, added to the enjoyment.
During the week we featured
a talent show, carnival night,
three dances, a rodeo, and a
grand display of fireworks. AU
the chUdren took part in these
activities.
The children are not fully
capable of doing the things that
come normally to us in our
daUy functions. So, we did it
for them. They were the brain
power, and we were the bodies.
The goin’s got pretty wild at
times, but aU In aU, we all
had a great time.
I am a volunteer for Mus
cular Dystrophy. I joined a
group of teenagers through an
organization called TAD. TAD
represents Teens Against
Dystrophy. We are a group
of teenagers that visit the child
ren crippled with MD and we
help in raising money to fur
ther the research of the disease.
Now that you have heard about
our week at camp, would you
have given up a week of your
time to cheer up a child crlp
pled with MD?

From Upper Riverdale Road

As we enter the lobby we see

with a volunteer. To the right
as we enter we see a glassed

the information desk is a room
