Abstract

The article discusses the family camps in Camp Patterson, Lake Washington, near Mankato, Minnesota. The camp developed four years ago when the families which made up the Southern Minnesota Cerebral Palsy Club undertook the camp for family recreation and education. There should be at least one physically handicapped children on each families in order to join the camp. The Mankato Kiwanis Club furnishes the camp, and sponsor each handicapped child with $10 fee. The family camp became what its name suggests in the fourth year. There are more fathers who attended the camp, ideal weather contributed to a fine week of fishing, swimming, and cooking, and 14 children that are physically handicapped enjoyed the camp with 12 ordinary children.
