Important Camper Application Information
There are two ways to begin your registration process for American Diabetes Association (ADA) Camp.

OR
2. Begin your Camper registration online.
Once you are done completing the online registration, you will be redirected to this page to download the following Supplemental Camper Application Forms, which require parent/guardian signatures or signatures from your child’s health care provider:
Supplemental Camper Application Forms for Child with Diabetes
Submit these forms via U.S. Postal Mail to your local American Diabetes Association as soon as possible so that your complete application can be processed.
Once all Camper Application forms and payments are received online and via mail, the local American Diabetes Association will contact you regarding acceptance to Camp and provide you with additional information about Camp (i.e., check-in information, what to pack).
IMPORTANT: Completion of these steps holds a spot at Camp for your child until we have reached program capacity. You must complete and submit all Supplemental Camper Application forms and payment at least 10 days prior to the Camp session to secure this spot for your child. All camper forms are reviewed by our Camp medical team to ensure that we can accommodate your child and provide a safe environment for them to fully participate in the camping program.
