    In 1995, Mended Heart Chapter #209, located in Morgantown, West Virginia, sent twelve campers with cardiovascular disease to Smith Mountain Lake 4-H Educational Center in Virginia\u2019s Blue Ridge Mountains near Roanoke.\u00a0 Sponsorship for the campers, ages 8-16, was provided by Mended Hearts #209, Mountainview Regional Rehabilitation Hospital, Monongalia General Hospital\u00a0Foundation, WVU Department of Surgery Secretarial Staff, Dr. Robert Gustafson, Dr. Larry Rhodes, Dr. Arpy Balian, Dr. Lee Pyles, Dr. Marie Steiner, Dr. Stan Einzig, and Drs. David and Kathy Rosen.\u00a0 The campers were accompanied by Shannon Rudy, a registered nurse\u00a0whose sponsorship was provided by Dr. William Neal and George Rosier.\u00a0 Bob Hartley, Bob Walker and Libby Hupp visited the camp and observed some of the activities.<\/p>\n

    This camp, sponsored by Franklin County Chapter #148 of Mended Hearts, provided fully-equipped facilities, recreational activities, meals, trained counselors and medical staff qualified to handle cardiovascular emergencies.\u00a0 After attending and observing this camp, the Morgantown Mended Hearts Chapter voted to develop a similar camp for the children\u00a0of West Virginia.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t
