Easter Seal camp
gives UNU students
valuable experience
By Liz Austin
Camp Kiwanis may look like an ordinary summer
camp, but it is really a very special place for special
people.
Camp Kiwanis is special because it is the only camp in
Nebraska that serves handicapped people. The camp is
sponsored by the Nebraska Easter Seal Society.
According to Gary Staats, Nebraska Easter Seal Society
director of programs and services, UNL students are given
the opportunity to participate as staff members of the
camp. As staff members, students could gain valuable
experience in their field of education, Staats said.
The camp is Vt miles outside of Mil ford, and usually
has sessions all summer. However, this summer it will be
open for only seven weeks because it is in the process of
being winterized, Staats said.
The camp is for mentally and physically handicapped
people with no limits on the severity of the handicap, he
said.
"The camp provides the handicapped with opportunit
ies they don't normally have," Staats said. "We try to give
them as much independence as possible."
The camp staff consists of 30 to 40 people.
Camp work can be applied as practical experience in
students' related fields of study, including special educat
ion, sociology, and physical education, Staats said. Intern
ships can be contracted between students and professors
as fulfillment of field experience requirements.
But, he said, staff positions are not necessarily limited
to those who need field experience. Staff members can be
anyone who enjoys getting out and being with people, he
said.
In addition to the personal satisfaction and experience
gained from the camp, students are provided with room
and board, routine medical care and pay ranging from $55
to $80 per week, he said.
The summer is divided into separate sessions for adults,
teenagers and children. There are usually about 65
campers per session and at least one staff member for
every two campers.
There is a one-week session of staff training with pro
fessionals in areas such as special education and sociology,
he said.
The camp includes programs in arts and crafts, music,
recreation, nature and swimming. Miscellaneous evening
activities include dances, scavenger hunts and speeches.
Students interested in the camp can contact Staats at
the Lincoln Center Building, 215 Centennial Mall S.
