If you're interested in a healthy experience where your child will enjoy a typical summer camp, learn how to eat well and develop skills to live a healthy lifestyle, then Camp Wabi might be a good fit.
Created by Mayo Clinic Health System and the Eau Claire, Wisconsin YMCA, the camp is designed to provide a welcoming place for kids who struggle with weight.

At Camp Wabi young people learn to integrate healthy habits into their lives while enjoying kayaking, swimming and archery in the Northwoods of Wisconsin.
One hour each day is dedicated to lessons presented by behavioral counselors. Campers learn about nutrition and the reasons we often over eat, like stress and boredom.
