DIABETES CAMP CELEBRATES 42 YEARS OF SERVICE TO CHILDREN
Financial assistance is available for those who qualify
 This summer, Central Ohio children will experience Camp Hamwi offered by the Central Ohio Diabetes Association for the 42nd straight year.
Held outside Danville, Ohio, Camp Hamwi offers youth 7-17, a combination of traditional camping activities and diabetes education. Campers enjoy horseback riding, swimming, archery, canoeing, crafts and other fun activities while learning diabetes self-management skills. Diabetes monitoring is important because, without proper care, diabetes can lead to serious health complications.
This year, Camp Hamwi sessions begin with Senior Challenge for teen-agers, 13 to 17 years-old, July 26 to August 1.
Finally, the Junior Challenge session is for youth who are between 7 and 12 years old during the week of August 2 to 8. The cost to attend is $375 per camper. Scholarships are available. The registration deadline is July 17.
For more information call 614-884-4400 or 1-800-422-7946, you can also click on the camp photo to sign-up for Camp Hamwi today.
