See what our campers have to say

Camp changed everything for me! It was the first place I felt normal and understood. That is why I didn’t hesitate to send my T1D son and why I am still motivated today. Send your kid; I promise it’s worth it!

This is a place where you will make lifelong friends and probably have a few firsts. It may be your first time to canoe or paddle board or first time to jump in a lake. Whatever it is, you will leave with a lot of great memories!

— Tiffany

It was amazing coming to camp with all the other campers that were just like me and knew what it was like to take care of T1D. It was the first time I met other kids with my same condition.

— Robin

I had the best times at TCDC. I met friends and learned about my new lifelong condition and that it was not as scary as my family feared and that I could handle T1D.

— Hadley

Camp was the first time I felt “normal” and not alone. I made lifelong friends that I hold dear along with countless cherished memories.

— Savannah

This is the first place I felt normal, just like everyone else.

— Steve

I came to camp as a stranger, but I left feeling and being a part of something great!

— Heather

I learned a lot about T1D during my time at TCDC which I credit with having just passed my 50 year diaversary (anniversay of diagnosis).
