A Fundraiser for Camp Buck and the Nevada Diabetes Association
Do you remember summer camp?
Maybe its when you had your first kiss. Or maybe it was the first time you spent the night away from home.
Maybe you learned to swim at camp. Or maybe you learned that you love skits, campfires, and obnoxious sing-as-loud-as-you-can songs.
Maybe you ate so many s'mores that you got sick. And maybe it made you the person you are today.
For kids with Type 1, 'normal' summer camp just isn't an option
From the dietary restrictions to the middle-of-the-night blood sugar testing and the exhaustive staff of medical professionals, giving kids with Type 1 a summer camp experience isn't cheap. In fact, its really expensive. Every single dollar raised during this event goes directly to scholarships so that those that wouldn't otherwise be able to attend are given the opportunity.

The science is in
A recent study shows that "youth with type 1 diabetes across multiple camps showed broad‐based psychosocial benefits" when attending camp. (Source)

"The prom is just one small way that I try to give back to the place that has been a huge source of inspiration in my life." |
As many of you know, I've grown up with Type 1 Diabetes. I was diagnosed at the young age of 10. Once I discovered Camp Buck, a summer camp for Type 1s only, I learned that I was not alone. The Type 1 community Camp Buck gave me has been instrumental in making me who I am today.
