About Camp Teen Adventure
Teen Adventure Camp is an overnight camp program for teens ages 14-18 that combines a program of summer activities with a program of diabetes education and support. Both components challenge each camper to reach their maximum potential, both mentally and physically.
The campers are actively involved in managing their diabetes. Goals for campers include improved self-esteem, taking responsibility for diabetes management, and social adjustment in a new setting away from home.
The activities are planned for the interest and skill level of each age group and provide new and different experiences for campers each year.
Physicians, nurses, and dietitians with diabetes expertise provide round the clock medical supervision. Nutrition activities, blood glucose monitoring, and insulin administration are integrated into the camp program.
The American Diabetes Association is committed to providing educational information and referral services for children with diabetes and their families, advocating for fair and quality treatment of children with diabetes in schools, and increasing federal funding for diabetes research.
Register soon! Applications are processed and reviewed on a first come, first serve basis. Only complete applications, received with a non-refundable deposit, will be submitted to medical staff members of the Association camp committee for review.
Once application forms have been reviewed by the medical staff members, confirmation will be made on a first come, first serve basis, defined as the date the original forms are returned to the office complete and ready to process.
