1) Greetings! I've got important information if you are thinking about gluten free camp for 2009. If you are in need of a scholarship and have celiac disease, you may complete the following task. Please write a one page essay sharing how this camp experience will benefit you and what you hope to get out of it. The child must write it. Then, send it in by March 31, 2008 (We may extend it, but that's the target date!!- Mary). You may e mail them to Maryrose Hopke <maryrose@celiac.org or
send it in snail mail at

2) Also, last year, our Lansing Celiac group participated with Team Gluten
Free from the Celiac Disease Foundation to help raise money for scholarships.
Donations were made to our group and many of us walked the 5 K, There were also several who took on a big challenge and began to train for the run instead. But either way, we raised a LOT of money for much needed scholarships. Again, in 2009, we will be begin accepting donations for the camp scholarship fund. IF you are interested in participating with us on the 5 K walk, e mail or call me, as always.
