Here are some pictures of Madeline's diabetes camp where she renews friendships with other young diabetics and gains current knowledge on dealing with her disease (and not to mention having a lot of fun).

Camp Carolina Trails is a program of the American Diabetes Association. It is an exciting week of summer fun for boys and girls entering grades 4-11. The camp is unique because it is designed specifically for youth with diabetes. It is held at YMCA Camp Hanes on 400 acres next to Hanging Rock State Park, NC. The residential camp currently houses 150 youth. Campers are housed in well-maintained cabins with adult chaperones. Experienced personnel including a complete medical and nutrition staff, as well as camp counselors, supervise all camp activities.

The ADA is committed to providing educational information and referral services for children and families with diabetes, advocating for fair and quality treatment of children with diabetes in schools, and increasing federal funding for diabetes research.
