 Breanne was diagnosed with T1D at the  age of 4.  My family was referred to DYF. Camp was where we  learned to function as a family, where my parents learned how to manage  my diabetes while allowing me to be a kid first. Ultimately, because of  camp, I was able to do everything that I wanted to do in life and I  don’t think my family would have been able to let me do that if we  hadn’t gone to camp for all those years.” Click here for more info

Camp Leo is one of the many Lions Clubs International summer camps for children with diabetes. Children with type 1 diabetes not only have a great time with the many different activities, they are among other kids who also have type 1 diabetes.  They also learn how to be self sufficient and independent with their diabetes.

 The Lions of District 4-C1 created  a camp for kids with Diabetes in 1988 at Camp McCumber. The objective  of the camp was to help kids adjust to their situation and learn how to  take care of themselves responsibly while living a normal life style.
