THANK YOU...THANK YOU...THANK YOU...
Thanks to our team of 313 volunteers for Summer Camp 2007. Our campers had a wonderful time this past summer.  We hope that you will sign on to come back again this summer.

In addition to counselor activities we relay upon volunteers to help us in our new office with general office help, answering phones, mailing projects, arts & crafts projects like making all the Golden Syringes.  We have several events committees that you can join and help us plan Sugar Bowl, Golf Fore Kids, as well as helping us support those organizations who support us by volunteering at golf tournaments and other events.  Interested? contact amedley@campkudzu.org.  

You don't have to know anything about diabetes...just be willing to make a difference in the lives of very special children.

Our volunteers come from all over the United States and from all backgrounds and professions. From college students to business executives, doctors, teachers, firemen, healthcare professionals, each one gives a week of his or her time, talent and energy, knowing they make a difference in the lives of very special children.

Staff are asked to remain at camp for the entire week of their choice.  Knowledge of diabetes is not a prerequisite for volunteering at Camp Kudzu; we will teach what you need to know.  Staff training is a very important part of our volunteer program; therefore, training and orientation will be held preceding camp.  We will notify you about training dates as soon as possible.

Camp Kudzu offers a wide variety of activities including mountain biking, water skiing, horseback riding, canoeing, ropes course, arts and crafts, sailing, kayaking, campfires, singing, hiking, swimming, sports, vertical challenge course, zip line, soccer, tennis and much, much more!  If you are ready to have an amazing week this summer, while making a difference in the lives of very special children, join us at Camp Kudzu 2008!
