From orders placed to portions plated, a dietitian is integrally connected to the food service team to ensure that not only will food be delicious but also fulfilling the needs of campers. Additional dietary concerns (sensitivities, restrictions, intolerances, or moral preferences) will be taken into account to ensure everyone gets a great meal, every time that delivers the balanced, healthy eating the campers need.

All lost and found items are displayed multiple times during the week for the campers to claim. All unclaimed items (with the exception of socks & underwear) are washed and stored until the end of September, at which time we donate them to a local charity. Please call the office if you have lost an item and we will attempt to locate it and return it to you.

This 8" x 10" colour photo is beautifully printed and makes a great keepsake. This keepsake is included as a free part of every registration. Please note, if for some extenuating reason, a camper is not able to participate in the photo (custody issues, etc.) please contact our office - 506-463-CAMP and we will work with you!

Q: Is this a religious program?

Core to the identity of Green Hill Lake Camp is it’s faith programming – however in this program, we are more of a host facility than it being a traditional GHLC program. For this specific group of guests we have adopted a non-denominational posture to ensure that a religious preference (or lack there of) does not prohibit any guest from attending. Specifically, this means that while every camper and staff member will be free to express and practice their faith traditions, there will be no compulsory religious teaching time . There will be an optional chapel time each day as well as an on-site chaplain to provide services if any participant or staff member wants to talk about some of the “bigger questions of life” but that will be a resource available (in communication with parents) not an expected part of the program.

Q: How is this program different than other camps?

It is unique in three ways: 1.) In this camping community, type 1 diabetes brings kids together instead of making them stand out! Everyone is attuned to the unique challenges and ready to provide these campers with the best week of their summer. 2.) The program is intentionally designed for children living with diabetes with more breaks for snacks, blood glucose checks and insulin management to ensure that everyone is well. 3.) We have rounded up one of the best medical teams to be found in the country to support campers and provide educational opportunities. Not only will guests be provided with the opportunity to take on new challenges at the archery range or in a canoe, but also to be a champion in their health.

Q: Do You Have a Camp Store/Tuck?

We call our camp store the tuck shop. Each morning the campers have an opportunity to order snack products from our tuck shop which will be delivered to their cabin after lunch. It is also open daily for campers to buy souvenirs and clothing. For security sake, campers are not permitted to keep money in their cabin. All camp store money is deposited into a debit account for the campers so they don't have to handle cash. Any remaining money at the end of the campers stay is returned. We recommend $15 - $20 per week for snacks (souvenirs and clothing extra). Camp memorabilia & clothing ranges in price from $3 - $40.
