Yes, it's great. I was a counselor last year and both my girls went too (ages 7 and 10 last year). I'm happy to answer any questions you have. The kids have a blast, the food is great... only complaint in my house, was not enough sleep, but it's only a week.

You don't say how old you are, but if you respond back with more questions, I can be more specific.

Hope to see you there! Keep track of the website b/c as soon as the applications are posted it will fill up (especially if you are a teen).

Hope to see you there!

Do you know if there is one on the west coast? My 20 year old son was just diagnosed and no longer lives at home. He is pretty "deer in the headlights" and doesn't cook much or eat many vegetables. Since I'm celiac, I can help him, but it would be great if he could connect with some guys his age who have dealt succesfully with this.

do a google search, but I'm pretty sure there is one in California. Unfortunately, he may fall through the cracks for camp. In RI, campers have to be 16 or younger and counselors have to be 24 or older. I would encourage you to help him find a local support group and a few restaurants that have gluten-free menus.

good luck.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
