🌟 BIG NEWS! 🌟

We are incredibly excited to share that Hometown T1D will be sending THREE amazing kids to Camp Stix and Camp Twigs this summer! 🎉🏕️💙

After reading each application and learning about these incredible young people and their journeys with Type 1 Diabetes, our board was inspired by their strength, resilience, and excitement for the opportunity to attend camp.

For many children living with T1D, diabetes camp is more than just a week of fun. It's a chance to build confidence, make lifelong friendships, learn valuable diabetes management skills, and experience the freedom of being surrounded by others who truly understand life with Type 1 Diabetes.

We are honored to help make this experience possible and cannot wait to hear about the memories, friendships, and adventures they create this summer. We are proud to be a small part of your journey. 💙

Thank you to our supporters, donors, volunteers, and community members who help make opportunities like this possible. Your generosity directly impacts local families living with Type 1 Diabetes.

Help us congratulate these campers in the comments! 🎉👇

Meet our Board of Directors! 💙

Mitch & Stephanie Bowen, our founders and Executive (& Co) Directors. When their oldest daughter was diagnosed with T1D in 2018, they found a need in the LC Valley and surrounding areas to connect with others affected with Type One Diabetes. Hometown T1D first started fundraising efforts with a small color run and has evolved into an incredible Fall Festival that thousands attend, with all funds being returned to the T1D community in the area.

"Hometown T1D’s mission is to spread awareness, help support, educate, learn, and empower individuals and their families with Type 1 Diabetes in the LC Valley."

Tawny Wilson, owner of Tawny's Tails, has been a steady force and board member for several years. You will see her at almost all our events handling organization and attendance efforts, and is our Treasurer.

Kali Buck, owner of Kali Photography, joined the Board in 2025 as the Social Media & Marketing Director, and is often times behind the scenes reaching our community through our Facebook, Instagram, and community groups.

Chelsey Woods, our Assistant Director, joined our team at the beginning of 2026. As a T1D mom, she is a wealth of knowledge and provides valuable insight of someone who is in our T1D community. She is a Registered Dietician at TriState Health, and connected to the LC Valley Community in ways that have made her the perfect addition.

Say hey to our Board! 💙

Did you know? 🤯

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune condition—not caused by diet or lifestyle—where the pancreas stops producing insulin, requiring 24/7 manual management to survive.

Hometown T1D’s mission is to spread awareness, help support, educate, learn, and empower individuals and their families with Type 1 Diabetes in the LC Valley.
