Gales Creek Camp is proud to remain one of the lowest-priced summer camps in the United States. In fact, according the American Camp Association, in the U.S. the average cost for a week of camp is $865, and that includes non-medical camps. As far as other diabetes camps across the country go, we can't find any that even come close to GCC in price. We will always work hard to keep fees to a minimum—it's integral to our mission and vision. We fundraise year-around to keep camp fees as low as possible so all children with type 1 diabetes have access to a great summer camp experience regardless of their family's financial situation.

Gales Creek Camp is committed to erasing barriers to camp. Families and kids with a type 1 have enough to worry about. To ensure no camper is denied access to camp based on financial need, we offer financial aid, including pay-what-you-can camperships, for families who need them.
