Changing Lives
Each summer, Camp New Day offers a local camp for children with diabetes in West Texas and Eastern New Mexico. The one-week camp is an effort to provide a camp close to home, making it easier for children and teens to attend. Registration fees will be based on a graduated fee schedule and each family's ability to pay. Camp New Day does not want this fee to discourage anyone from participating.
