A signed permission slip and waiver must be completed at registration in order for teens to participate.
Tween Sessions
Activities (including pool time!) and discussion groups specifically for tweens (ages 10-12) will be offered on the same schedule as the adult sessions with the same breaks for snacks and meals. These sessions are for tweens with type 1 diabetes as well as their tween siblings and friends. Tweens should simply report to the designated Tween Room each day at 8:45 a.m. Tweens likely will be going off-site on Sunday afternoon. A signed waiver must be completed at registration in order for tweens to participate.
School-Age Children's Sessions
Programming for school-age children (ages 6-9) will be fun and interactive. No "boring stuff" here! Sessions will run on the same schedule as the adults with the same breaks for snacks and meals. All school-age children are welcome. Pool time will be part of each day’s activities, so make sure your child has a swimsuit! Children should report each day to the designated Elementary Room at 8:45 a.m.
Childcare
Childcare for potty-trained children ages 3-5 will be available, and a Certified Diabetes Educator will be on staff.

Please note that all children must be with their appropriate age group on Saturday and Sunday. The elementary program is for children ages 6-9; the tween program is for children ages 10-12, and the teen program is for ages 13-18. There is no 'skipping up' or 'skipping down.' This is per our insurance guidelines. No exceptions are allowed.
