November Hope-Mongering session topic:

School Sports and T1D

From little league to competitive high school sports, playing sports with T1D can mean extra considerations, including management adjustments and conversations with coaching staff. This topic can bring up a lot of important questions.

This month, we welcome Derek Duman to lead us in a conversation about all things sports and T1D. Derek was diagnosed with T1D as a child and grew up playing all kinds of sports. As an adult he has coached high school football, basketball, golf, and softball. He is currently an athletic director in Portland.

Join us on November 17th at 7pm on Zoom. Bring your questions and experiences to share!

Hope-Mongering Parent Sessions are always free!

About Hope-Mongering:

Each month we recruit an array of key voices to host a series of conversations: parents, young adults who grew up with T1D, health coaches, educators, dietitians, T1D doctors and nurses, and of course the GCC summer camp crew. It's a magic formula for conversation on raising a young person with T1D. We'd love for you to join us and add your voice, or just sit back and listen. Feel free to bring topics or questions.

Calling all high school juniors and seniors: Gales Creek Camp needs you!

GCC is looking for juniors and seniors in high school to serve on the Camper Committee to represent the collective voice of our campers. These individuals will be an important part of the future of GCC by expressing ideas and input, working with GCC staff to make them a reality, and taking part in fun (but important!) camp planning - like helping design the annual camp t-shirt!

Help us plan to next year! Whether your camper attended GCC this summer or not, we want your thoughts

• If your camper attended camp this summer, please take a second to complete this super short 10-question survey.
