Spina bifida camp ability?
I myself have Spina Bifida and went to camps for disabled children as a child. Children with Spina Bifida can usually participate in camping activities with no problem, unless the child is on crutches or a walker and does not have a wheelchair, and there is a lot of walking involved. The parents or guardians of such a child need to be aware of the need to check the child's feet and legs for sores and blisters while camping, as well as the child's bottom if the child does not walk.
