Need help with the cost of camp?

Financial aid is always available

Don't let the price of camp be the reason your kiddo misses out


Gales Creek Camp is committed to erasing barriers to camp. Families and kids with a type 1 have enough to worry about. We work to ensure no camper is denied access to camp based on financial need. There are several financial aid options, including pay-what-you-can camperships, for anyone who needs them. We can also help with camping gear, like sleeping bags, toiletries or shoes.


We'll make it as easy and painless as possible. Give us a call or email us here with questions.

Need some hope? Join a parent/caregiver support session


We call it Hope-Mongering


Each month we recruit an array of key voices to host a series of conversations: parents, young adults who grew up with T1D, health coaches, educators, dietitians, T1D doctors and nurses, and of course the GCC summer camp crew.


It's a magic formula for conversation on raising a young person with T1D.


These sessions are virtual, and you can join us via video or phone. Register to access the Zoom link and dial-in information.

Join us (TOMORROW!) April 20th at 7pm on Zoom. Bring your questions and experiences to share!


Hope-Mongering Sessions are always free!

At noon, we'll provide lunch and admire our work. We have gluten free and veggie options (let us know about any other dietary restrictions and we'll accommodate).
