The American Diabetes Association Camp 180 was established in 1978 and has served close to 3,000 campers at Fort Lone Tree Camp in Capitan, NM. This woodland setting is a wonderful place to commune with nature just outside Albuquerque where campers will enjoy swimming, archery, hiking, high ropes course, giant swing, RC racing, horseback riding and tons of other fun activities.
ADA Camp 180 is a lifeline for children with diabetes to develop the critical skills needed to thrive while managing their diabetes. Attending summer camp helps children develop social skills, self-respect and life-long friendships. Kids have the opportunity to meet others just like them while fostering independence, building self-confidence and gaining an awareness of a healthy lifestyle through education, nutrition, exercise, emotional well-being and glucose control.
Camper Programs:
Main Camp Ages: Ages 8-12
Teen Program: Ages 13-16
Counselor-in-Training Program: Age 17
Counselor-in-Training Program
The Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program is for youth age 17 and was created as a transitional stage from camper to staff. CIT's are expected to display responsibility, maturity and a positive attitude. They are a highly visible group among campers and are often looked up to as role models.
CITs apply through the camper registration portal. Parent is required to start and complete the application. Applicants are selected based upon completion of an application, personal references and interview.

Mayfield Commencement Postponed - Severe weather expected, ceremony pushed to Sunday
Severe thunderstorms developing Saturday afternoon near the Field of Dreams have prompted administrators with Las Cruces Public Schools to postpone commencement exercises for Mayfield High School’s Class of 2023.
The ceremony has been rescheduled to Sunday morning at 9 a.m. at the Field of Dreams. District officials have been monitoring the weather the last few days with the assistance of the National Weather Service in Santa Teresa. Storms originally were expected to pass through but developed quickly, prompting swift action.
“We understand this is a tremendous inconvenience for graduates and families, but the safety of everyone at the stadium is of paramount importance,” said Deputy Superintendent of Operations for LCPS, Gabe Jaquez.
All commencement ceremonies have been broadcast live, courtesy of LCPS-TV. Click here for more information.
