Does anyone know of any sleepaway camps (tristate areas) that accommodate boys that are gluten-free? This is the first year my son wants to go and trying to find if there are any options. TIA

Most camps are able to accommodate allergies and medical conditions

I would reach out to the ones you are interested to confirm, but I don’t think it will be an issue

Just specify that he needs gluten free because of celiacs disease. Most people I know these days who are gluten free actually have no issues eating gluten, they just do it for diet purposes. And half the time they will cheat and eat gluten. So it’s probably a good idea to let the camp know it’s something real and serious and not just a “preference”

Thanks. I'm looking for someone that actually sent a gluten free child to camp, and would recommend that camp. I'm not looking to send all of the food up with him. Thanks
