A unique summer camp
in Quebec for 7- to 16-year-old
diabetic youths
Since 1958, Camp Carowanis has been offering a summer camp experience specifically tailored to young diabetics, located in the heart of the forest bordering Lake Didi in Ste-Agathe-des-Monts. A place where many memories are made, great friendships are forged and where differences have no limits. It is also a camp with a diversified program of activities that will provide your young T1D with tools for life.
