Kamp K'aana
Kamp K'aana is a two-week fun-based weight management summer camp at YMCA Camp Cullen in Trinity, Texas, that helps obese kids, ages 10-14, and their families make lifestyle changes necessary to achieve their ideal weights. Campers learn about healthy nutrition choices and behavioral modification tips while they consume a balanced, nutritious meal plan and engage in a variety of fun summer camp activities.
Kamp K'aana will be held this year from June 9-22, 2013.
This research-based program also provides tips to parents to create a healthy environment at home at the start and end of camp. The program also has three reunions in Houston over the following year to provide support to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
To be eligible for this specialty camp, children must be in the 95th percentile of Body Mass Index (BMI) for their gender and age. Click here to calculate.
