Camp Superkids
June 8-14, 2008
Camp Kitaki
South Bend, Nebraska
Camp Superkids is a one-week residential summer camp for Nebraska children, ages 7-14 with moderate to severe asthma. Without special facilities and provisions these children might not be able to experience swimming, horseback riding, canoeing, hiking, arts and crafts, and cookouts. Ironically, these activities that produce such joy in children, can also trigger frightening and dangerous asthma attacks in those with the disease. At Camp a special infirmary, staffed 24 hours a day by experienced nurses, respiratory therapists and specialist physicians, handles any emergency which may arise. Award-winning, daily education sessions teach the children how to manage the disease to stay out of the hospital or doctor’s office.
For more information contact Beth Joslin at 402-572-3030.
