Our traditional overnight resident Middle School camp session helps campers transition to a new level of independence -- and FUN!. Campers spend 5 days at camp with their friends and peers, participating in daily fun diabetes education activities structured to their age group. Middle School Camp is for campers entering grades 6 or 7 in Fall.

This camp session gives campers the opportunity to make friends and take steps toward managing their diabetes independently. Between rock climbing, swimming, arts and crafts and hanging out with their friends, campers practice skills like learning to give and rotate their own insulin injections and pump sites, regular blood sugar testing, increased skills with carb counting, and balancing meals with insulin and activity.
