We’re going to diabetes camp in August! Yes WE. The whole family is heading to Massachusetts for 4 days. I’m excited – I have yet to hear someone not praise the benefits of diabetes camp.
I originally had a little trouble finding the program we’re going to at The Barton Center. I ultimately got the details from Caleb’s endo, but thought it might be useful to start a list of camps by geographical location.
So if you and/or your child are planning to attend a diabetes camp, or if you know of a great diabetes camp, won’t you add the link of their site to the list? Just click on the big blue circle. Please include a geographical reference when you post the name for easy reference. If you’ve blogged about your camp experience and want to include that link, go ahead, just please list the camp name and location where it asks for “Your Name”.
The first one on the list: The Barton Center – NorthEast US.
Happy camping everyone!
This is Caleb... 
I managed to list myself as a camp, but then corrected it to list Bearskin Meadows! You are going to have the time of your life!!!!!!!
Great idea Lorraine! I linked Gracie’s camp and listed it. Have fun when you go!
I’ve been researching camps and have compiled a list. It’s a work in progress and will be updated as I find more.
I don’t know if we can wait two more years to be old enough for our local camp 🙂
Hi, Lorraine!
I wanted to attend this camp as well, but we had a scheduling conflict! I would’ve loved to have met your family…we admire all the hard work you do for your son and the Diabetic community.
Maybe next year! I hope to put the camp into our schedule and plan around us. I look forward to hearing how it goes!
Take care,
Jessica
So sorry we will miss you. Hopefully it will be the best thing since sliced bread and we’ll meet up next year!
Leave it to me – I added Camp Sweeney 2X. Sorry!!
I cannot wait to hear about how much fun you guys have!
Hey there – check out http://www.diabetescamps.org . They maintain a searchable list of diabetes camps of all kinds. Have fun at Barton, it’s the most wonderful place in the world!
Hey, just an FYI, you can find a good resource of camps along with most anything Diabetes related at http//thediabetesresource.com. Gina Capone started this up and I have been helping build it up with her. So if you are looking for camps, check it out.
Great idea Lo! I can’t wait to read about your camp experience!
Awesome idea! Can’t wait to see pic’s and read about your adventure
Awesome news! You’re right – D-camp is an incredible time and it’s sweet that your family gets to go along with Caleb. Have a blast!
Thanks Michael!
