Teen Camp

Hodia Teen Camp | June 14th - 20th, 2026

For teens entering 9th-12th grade in the Fall
For volunteer camp staff: arrival is one day prior for training and prep

Hodia Teen Camp 2026 promises an unforgettable week of adventure in the stunning Sawtooth Mountains at Luther Heights. Designed for teens entering 9th-12th grade in Fall 2026, this camp offers a fun, supportive environment where teens with type 1 diabetes can thrive. Campers will enjoy a full week of exciting activities, engaging diabetes education, and the opportunity to connect with others who understand their journey, all while building life-long friendships.

Camper registration opens February 1, register early to secure your spot!

IMPORTANT TRANSPORTATION INFO FOR 2026 SUMMER CAMPS

Transportation will follow the same plan as 2025! Instead of multiple bus check-in locations, there will be a single camp check-in at Luther Heights. This update was made to help sustain camp and continue serving families with type 1 diabetes for years to come, while also giving parents and guardians the opportunity to visit the camp, meet our caring staff, and connect with other families during drop-off.

At the end of camp, campers will be bussed to designated locations in Idaho Falls, Jerome, and Boise, ID for parent or guardian pick-up. More details will be provided closer to camp.

We understand this update may create transportation challenges, so if you’re unable to drive your camper to camp, please feel free to contact us to discuss possible options.
