Gales Creek Camp
On the Road

The Don't Stop Believin' Tour
GCC is going on the road this summer! We want to be where our campers are, so we're loading up the bus with all-star counselors, medical staff, and lots of GCC swag to bring the fun to you. These sessions will be half-day sessions divided by age group.

July 30 - August 1: Portland/Vancouver Metro

August 7: Medford

August 8: Eugene
Special thanks to our GCC On the Road sponsor:
Other special programs for 2021
July 31: Family Camp
We know our littlest, newest campers are eager to get a peek at their new "home away from home," so this one's just for you. This afternoon camp is for families whose T1D is currently in kindergarten or 1st grade. Parents and siblings welcome.
August 14-15: High School Senior Weekend

The campers who were perhaps the most affected by these two summers without camp are our seniors. If 2020 or 2021 was supposed to be your last year at camp, we got you. We're planning an overnight camp for only those who are currently in the 11th or 12th grade (even if you've never been to GCC before).

As you know well, things can change, but we're committed and we're laying the groundwork for this special weekend. All campers and staff must be fully vaccinated.
Short promo from our May session with Dr. Jill Weissberg-Benchell. Sometimes the sessions feel like a presentation, sometimes an interview, sometimes a panel, but always a conversation.

Join the conversation June 17 at 7pm

In order to offer any programs at all this year, GCC has had to adapt as conditions change, but our programs are set and we're planning to make the absolute most of the opportunity to get the campers together. Whether you want to talk about COVID precautions or what to bring, we'll do our best to address all questions.
Please Note: For the months of July and August, Hope-mongering will be offered in person during our "Don't Stop Believin'" sessions, and we're excited to connect face to face.

The next virtual session will be September 16 at 7pm.
Camp Cleanup Day

July 10, 2021
9am-1pm

The annual event is BACK! We'll spruce up camp then serve lunch. This year we'll keep most jobs outside and/or make sure you stay in your "pod" so we can keep up the fight against the coronavirus. To sign up, click here.
