CLARA BARTON CAMP((:

Comment by Knox's Dad on July 6, 2010 at 9:39am

Hello all!
Well I spent 15 years, from 1970-84, at Camp Joslin along the shores of Pearly Pond! Clearly the best 15 years of my life! Certainly it would be considered the "dinosaur days" in todays camps for those with diabetes. Amy as you know we did a lot with the Barton girls as well. We probably crossed a path or two back then!
Joslin and Barton, to this day remain the only single gender diabetes camps in the world. The magic and mystique of the opposite gender always on your mind!
My greatest memories are from Camp Joslin! I still have contact with most of my posse from back then. Oh the days.........

Been going to Camp Granada in Monticello, IL since I was 8 years old. Now that I'm 19 I am a counselor! Love camp! Any campers from Camp Granada?!

I went to Camp Needlepoint (Camp St. Croix in Hudson, WI) when I was first diagnosed in 1992! Other than a little homesickness I have nothing but fond memories!!

Hi went to Clara Barton Camp in Oxford, Mass 1970-1975. I was from CT What a wonderful experience it was for me! Met many wonderdul people there. Had great fun. It was great to know I wasn't alone with my diabetes. I knew of no one till camp. They were all like me. Volleyball games, archery, baseball, swimming in the pond. Colored bathing caps and your buddy:) Boating on the pond. Going to Purgatory chasm. I stop in and drive by every once in a while. I now live in Oxford, have been here afew years. It is my Husbands home town. Wonderful memories!

i was browsing through the net to find out if it really did go bye bye, and i found that it still does exist but it's under a different thing now. i don't think it's associated with American Diabetes Association anymore.
