Did you know that kids get arthritis, too? Join the Arthritis Foundation for one week as a medical staff member at our annual Camp Spirit! This camp is a unique opportunity for kids with arthritis and their siblings to spend time with and make friends with other kids just like them. The medical staff is expected to help the kids with their basic medical needs, such as keeping track of and handing out medicines, administering shots, handing out ice and heat as needed, and taking care of the kids to make sure they're able to participate in everything camp has to offer.
