If your camper received a scholarship from the STIX Diabetes Programs for Camp, please remember that a handwritten thank you letter is required as part of accepting the scholarship and must be postmarked by Monday, June 15.

These letters will be forwarded directly to the generous donors and sponsors who help make camp possible for our families. A few heartfelt words from your camper truly make a difference and help our donors see the impact of their support.

Letters should be mailed to:

STIX Diabetes Programs
PO Box 8308

To protect camper privacy, please do not include full names or identifying information. Campers may sign with either their first name and age (if not highly identifying) or initials and age.

Please include a separate sticky note with the camper's name and age so we can mark the letter as received before forwarding it to the donor.

Thank you for helping us thank the people who make camp possible each year. 💙

Last Sunday, we had so much fun fishing at Bear Lake! It was a little chilly at first, but the sun came out, the fish were biting, and everyone who dropped a line caught a fish.

More importantly, it was a day spent fishing with friends both old and new. Kids swapped camp stories, made new connections, and helped first time campers get excited for the summer ahead.

These moments of connection are what make our Outreach events so special. Thank you to everyone who joined us for a wonderful day at the lake. We loved seeing friendships grow and can't wait to see everyone again soon!

Some volunteers are simply impossible to thank enough 💙

Citrus is not only the DISH Director for both Camp STIX and Camp TWIGS, a huge undertaking in itself but she is also a longtime auction volunteer whose creativity, ideas, and willingness to jump in wherever needed have impacted STIX in more ways than we can count.

Year after year, she shows up for this community in countless ways, often behind the scenes, helping make camp and our programs possible for so many families.

Thank you, Citrus, for the time, heart, humor, and dedication you bring to STIX. We are so incredibly grateful for you.

See you Sunday at the lake! The weather is looking like a perfect 70° for fishing, trail walks, and spending time together outdoors.

Join us Sunday, May 31st at Bear Lake West Shelter for a fun day of fishing, nature scavenger hunts, exploring the trails, and enjoying the lake together.

Please note: we will be at the shelter near the playground and on the opposite side of the lake from where we met last year.

Bring your lunch and fishing gear if you have it — we’ll provide snacks, drinks, and extra fishing poles to share.

We can’t wait to see everyone!
