Each year, on the first Saturday of June, we wake camp up from the long, wet winter. 

How it works: we have a list of specific jobs and you sign up for whatever works best for you. There will be everything from washing windows to organizing arts supplies. Everything you need will be ready for you, our esteemed volunteer.

Make sure to wear your work clothes and bring your can-do attitude.

We'll start at 9am sharp and work until about noon. Water, snacks and lunch are provided!

Join us for a low-commitment visit to camp! Tours, introductions, and maybe even a game or two will all begin at noon on June 1st following camp clean-up. It's a great opportunity to check out camp for the first time or revisit it just for fun!

New families, veteran families, and all supporters are welcome! We'll have lunch (including veggie and gluten-free options) and low/no-carb beverages.

Please let us know you're coming by signing up below so we can provide enough lunch for everyone.

We're looking for summer 2024 camp staff!

• Positions include:
• Counselor-In-Training (Current HS seniors)
• Counselor
• Camp Nurse (RN or Board-Eligible)
• Health House Staff (Student Nurse)
• Head Cook

Hope-Mongering parent/caregiver support sessions

This month:

Dr. Bruce Boston, Camp Doc for over 30 years.

Ask him anything!

March 21 @ 7pm on Zoom

Dr. Bruce Boston is the big cheese over at OHSU's pediatric endocrinology department, but he started volunteering at GCC when he was just a pediatrics lad.

Now, as a professor of pediatric endocrinology, Dr. Boston, known at camp as "Dr. Snoopy," or more recently "Snoop Doc," has seen it all. Join us this month to pick his brain. He'll share a few lessons from a long career, talk about the best developments over the years, and touch on the promises of the future.

Want to dive into the physiology of diabetes, hormones or autoimmunity? Ask away. Have questions you feel are maybe too deep or off-topic to ask at your regular endo appointment? Now's your chance.

Join the conversation March 21 at 7pm!

Hope Mongering is always free!

About 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. We'd love for you to join us and add your voice, or just sit back and listen. Feel free to bring topics or questions.
