The course

From the organizer

Raising awareness about T1D

Camp Sweeney's Play for the Day was created 14 years ago by a group of Camp Sweeney camper parents to raise awareness for T1D, or type 1 diabetes. T1D affects 1 in 400 children and can lead to devastating medical complications such as eye disease, kidney disease, and damaged cardiovascular and nervous systems.  However, proper diabetes management can greatly reduce the probability of future complications.  Camp Sweeney provides these children with a motivating support system to overcome these struggles.

Raising funds for campers

Half of the children who come to Camp Sweeney need financial aid.  Camp Sweeney's Play for the Day helps raise campership dollars to support those families in need.  Since its inception, Play for the Day has raised over $1.15 million. This year's goal is our most ambitious yet at $200,000.

Providing community fellowship

Camp Sweeney's Play for the Day serves as Camp Sweeney's kickstart for the summer. Campers and their families can come out to meet returning and new counselors. The community to gather to have a fun family-friendly morning with activities and fellowship. It is a great way to spend Memorial Day.

Play for the Day will go on RAIN or SHINE!
