Not long ago, careers in aviation weren’t accessible to people living with type 1 diabetes. Today, that’s changed—and the sky is truly open. ✈️

We’re excited to share an opportunity for youth in our community to explore what’s possible.

Alaska Airlines Aviation Day invites youth ages 11–18 to step inside the world of aviation—through hands-on activities, real conversations, and a chance to see themselves in roles like pilot, engineer, dispatcher, and more.

This year, a group specifically for youth living with T1D will be attending together—creating space for connection, confidence, and possibility.

📍 Renton, WA
🗓 May 30, 2026
⏰ 8:00 AM

If you have a child who’s curious about the future—or just loves planes—this could be something really special.

Just 23 days to go 🥳🎉

April 17–19 is right around the corner—and this weekend has become something really special.
It’s not just a getaway. It’s space to reconnect with yourself and with people who truly understand life with Type 1.

The kind of conversations that don’t need explaining. The kind of laughter that feels easy. The kind of support that stays with you long after the weekend ends.

Every year, this community shows up for each other in ways that are hard to put into words—but deeply felt.

✨ The full agenda is now live—feel free to read through it or download a copy to explore what the weekend will hold. 💙

✨ Session Highlight - Connect1D Adult Retreat✨

Over the past decade, community has become one of our most powerful tools—for sharing knowledge, solving problems, and reminding one another that we’re not alone.

In this panel conversation, community leaders and members reflect on how connection has shaped the last 10 years and explore what it will take to build resilient, supportive, and impactful communities in the decade ahead.

This session invites reflection, dialogue, and forward-thinking ideas on how we protect what makes community powerful while shaping spaces that are sustainable, inclusive, and strong for the next 10 years.

🦁 Why Camp Leo Is Truly One-of-a-Kind:

There are other Type 1 camps out there — but Camp Leo is the only residential/overnight camp in Western Washington created specifically for kids with Type 1 Diabetes.

What makes that so important?
Because when campers stay overnight, they’re surrounded by a full community that understands T1D — supported by 24/7 medical care from licensed medical volunteers, including endocrinologists, nurses, diabetes educators, and trained volunteers.

A few things parents always ask (and love to hear):
• Safety first: Every camper receives individualized diabetes care with round-the-clock monitoring.
• Carb counts + meals: All meals and snacks are carb-counted and prepared with T1D needs in mind.
• Device-friendly: Pumps, CGMs, injections — whatever your child uses, our medical volunteers can support it.
• Independence-building: Campers learn new skills, build confidence, and experience true community.
• Fun comes standard: Theme days, cabin activities, outdoor adventures, talent shows, and so much more.

Camp Leo is where kids feel understood, safe, and empowered… and where lifelong friendships begin. 💙
