Spring Family Camp 2008 ... a great success!
Camp Kudzu's Spring Family Camp is a fun-filled weekend for the entire family -- children of all ages living with diabetes, their parents and siblings. This is a wonderful program for families with children too young to attend our summer camp or for those who are recently diagnosed. Family Camp is a time to learn more about diabetes, have fun and make friends with families who are experiencing the same challenges of living with diabetes.
"Being with other children and families dealing with diabetes is priceless."

Parents Laugh and Learn . . .
Parents tell us that the parent education sessions are their favorite part of the weekend. We bring in diabetes experts (endocrinologists, diabetes educators and dietitians) to talk with our parents about latest diabetes technology and other hot topics. Parents have the unique opportunity to ask the experts anything and everything they always wanted to know, but never had the chance to ask.
Load Up the Minivan . . .
At Family Camp, children with diabetes see that they are not alone. Siblings feel included. Parents have an opportunity to learn more about the disease that affects their child. And everyone has a great time.
The cost per family is $300 (scholarships are available).
