Camp Too Sweet

Fincastle, VA
Camp Too Sweet offers a week-long program for kids aged 8 to 16 who have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. This exciting and educational camp provides a safe and nurturing environment where children can build confidence, form friendships, and participate in activities designed to support them on their diabetes journey. All campers have diabetes, so children won't feel alone or different. We provide positive role models to help kids establish healthy habits that will last a lifetime. Camp Too Sweet focuses on helping campers accept their diabetes, teaching them how to live a healthy lifestyle—and most importantly, on having fun! Campers interact with other kids just like themselves, who are facing the same challenges, in the beautiful and exciting setting of our residential camp. Register by May 6.
