ENTIRE FAMILY
For Diabetic Children
The Texas Lions League, which
has operated a summer camp for
handicapped children at Kerrville
for the past 18 years, has added
a new dimension of service this
year with a special three-week
camp for diabetic youngsters in
cooperation with the diabetes as-
sociations of Texas.
League President Everett J.
Grindstaff of Ballinger said the
pilot program would be known as
the Texas Lions Camp for Diabet-
ic Children.
The special summer session —
June 7 through June 25 — will be
held at the facilities of Camp
Mansion near Friendswood, be-
tween Houston and Galveston,
where a diabetic camp has been
operated for the past 14 years.
The League is the non - profit,
charitable organization which
represents all the Lions of Texas,
Grindstaff said.
"The diabetic camp represents
another important step forward
by the Lions of Texas in serving
children who require special at-
tention/7 Grindstaff said.
At the home camp in Kerrville,
nearly 12,500 blind, deaf, mute
and crippled children have enjoy-
ed two weeks of summer fun. Dur-
ing the other months of the year,
the League — in cooperation with
the State Commission for the
Blind —. operates a rehabilitation
center for adults at the camp and
has aided more than 800 Texans
who have lost their sight.
The diabetic camp will have 110
youngsters, 6 through 16, in the
pilot program. Dr. Luther B.
Travis, an associate professor in
the department of pediatrics of
the Texas Medical Branch at Gal- ■
veston, will be medical director.
Tom Manison will be camp direc-
tor.
The goal of the new program-
aside from having fun and devel-
oping camp skills - is to help di-
abetic children learn they can
lead happy, normal lives by fol-
lowing good health practices and
to give them self-confidence when ;
they have to leave home.
Chapters of the South Texas and
North Texas Diabetes Associa-
tions, plus officers of district and
county medical societies, have
been requested to submit camper
applications.
The Lions of Texas, in order to
better determine the need for fu-
ture expansion, are making a sur-
vey of diabetic children who would
be interested in the camping pro-
gram..
Names, ages and addresses of
potential campers should be sent
to the camp secretary, Mrs. Jo
Ann Horne, P. O. Box 2577, Tex-
as City, Texas 77590.
