​SKI & SNOWBOARD CAMPS 

KIDS & TEENS ages 7-17

TYPE 1 DIABETES

siblings & friends welcome to register

Stay tuned for winter 2024 shred camp schedule
​


register on august 1, 2023

Riding On Insulin welcomes those living with T1D (Ages 7-17) and their siblings or close friends to register for our 1-day shred camps! We accept all ability and experience levels. We've taught thousands of kids & teens with T1D how to ski & snowboard since 2010, hosting camps at mountains in 25 states and four countries.

First timer? There's no better time to start! We provide a safe, fun learning environment and a memorable introduction to skiing or snowboarding. All of our coaches have T1D themselves, or love someone with T1D.

Experienced skier or snowboarder? You'll rip turns all day with an advanced group -- honing your skills with one of our seasoned coaches while exploring the mountain.

When you register for one of our camps, you're signing up for more than a day on the mountain -- you're joining a community of people who get it. They understand what it's like to live with Type 1 diabetes, and they're pushing the limits of the disease in a safe environment, learning that anything is still possible with T1D.

Looking forward to 2024, you can expect:

  • Virtual Orientations
    • We kick off the weekend with a *LIVE* 60-minute virtual orientation with our families and coaches. We play a few games, answer any questions and hear from our partners about the latest and greatest in insulin pump therapy and CGM technology. We also have a Certified Diabetes and Education Specialist on every call to answer any questions regarding blood sugar management, temp basal, AID systems, etc.!

  • Swag bags
    • ​At check-in, your camp will receive a camp shirt, beanie, wristbands, stickers, & much more in their swag bag. We take pride in our professional graphic design and high quality, durable garments so you can wear them for years to come. You can  pre-order hoodies, gaiters and other items when you register.

  • Epic Camp Day Experience
    • On camp day, we split into groups of 4-7 campers, which are led by our T1D coaches and volunteers. A typical schedule looks like:
      • ​8:00 a.m. — Volunteers report to the designated meeting place
      • 8:30 a.m. — Check-in for families
      • 9:00 a.m. — Campers hit the mountain with their groups as soon as everyone in the group is ready
      • 10:00 a.m. — Parent roundtable at the ROI home base
      • 12:00 p.m. — Lunch as a group (parents are welcome to sit with kids)
      • 12:45 p.m. — Another group check, and kids head out for more riding/skiing
      • 3:45 p.m. — Group photo & goodbyes! Campers head with parents to return rentals, if applicable.                                                                 * Schedule varies based on the location of the camp
