Summer Camp is a five-day, four-night overnight camp for kids ages 9-17, living with type 1 diabetes. Over the course of the week, your camper will be able to participate in activities such as, swimming, hiking, dancing, ropes courses, camp fires, movie nights, talent shows, diabetes challenges and a camp favorite: gaga ball! Because every camper has T1D, Camp Blue Hawk is such a unique yet completely normal experience- it’s a week for your kid to just be kid! In addition to having fun, we understand parents and caregivers have many health and safety concerns for their children, especially when they are not close by. Our camp leaders and medical staff take care of food, nutrition, proper medical care and supplies while your child is away from home. Please do not let cost deter you from sending your child to camp. Financial assistance in the form of camper scholarships are available to those in need. No child will be turned away because of inability to pay.
