Approximately 10 miles off Interstate 80, the site is located just west of Bloomsburg, in Millville, Pennsylvania.

The HDYC meets or exceeds all standards established by the American Camp Association and the American Diabetes Association's public policies and position statements. Our staff is actively involved in the Diabetes Camping Association, an international organization devoted to providing camping experiences to all children with diabetes.

The HDYC is proud to be accredited by the American Camping Association. Developed exclusively for the camp industry, this nationally recognized credential focuses on program quality, health and safety issues and requires The HDYC to annually review every facet of operation. The HDYC has voluntarily submitted to this independent appraisal done by camping experts and has earned this mark of distinction.
