Update from Camp Courage

Statement Regarding H1N1 Flu at camp:
Recently, there were 10 cases of H1N1 flu (also known as swine flu) among campers and staff following the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) camp that was held at Camp Courage. None of the 10 showed symptoms until after the camp session ended June 12, and all 10 have recovered. We have reported this to state health officials, followed appropriate infection control procedures and sanitized Camp Courage. We are confident that the facility is safe. Future camp sessions are going on as scheduled and we do not anticipate any further problems.
