Easter Seals Virginia Welcome to Easter Seals Virginia. I met so many amazing people at camp. Camp Easter Seals will offer residential recreation programs to an estimated 640 children and adults with disabilities during the summer of 2001. This is in keeping with our visionary commitment to provide opportunities for 2,500 individuals to experience the benefits of our therapeutic camping and recreation program during the next five years. By summer's end, we will have served 35,000 meals, held more than 150 staff meetings, given 1200 rides on our patient and gentle horses, and kissed the Moose more than 1000 times.
Campers can participate in the excitement of many activities at camp, including swimming.
Our greatest challenge, as we prepare for Summer Sessions is the recruitment of prospective summer staff. Worldwide recruitment efforts are underway to find Camp staff to lead activities and assist campers with daily needs. Candidates must be at least 18 years old with one year of college. Experience in working with people with disabilities is helpful, but not a prerequisite. Candidates must have tremendous patience, energy, enthusiasm, and compassion.
