We are thrilled to be a part of this Happy Camper contest being offered by the very generous folks at
Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery
in celebration of Celiac Awareness Month (May)!
Rudi’s will provide ten (10) lucky children between the ages of 8 – 17, a one-week scholarship to a gluten-free camp of choice … and they will cover travel related expenses! W.O.W.
Here is what you need to do to enter: Rudi’s Gluten-Free fans are encouraged to submit a 200-word essay from their child explaining what attending a gluten-free summer camp would mean to them (parents can help enter the essay, but it should be in the child’s words. Rudi’s will read over all the essays and will select 10 eligible and very lucky kids to win a week long gluten-free camp adventure! What a wonderful opportunity for your celiac or gluten-sensitive child!
Rudi’s Gluten-Free also promises to give the first 250 eligible fans that enter an official Rudi’s Gluten-Free Happy Camper water bottle … so head on over to their Facebook page to be one of the first 250!

May 10, 2013 at 1:38 pmI would love to win a camping package so my boys and I can go camping again. We haven’t gone in a few years due to my health declining and it is time for us to live life again! We love to explore and want to see the open world 🙂

May 10, 2013 at 12:44 pmI grew up with my parents taking my brother and I camping and backpacking in the Smoky Mountain National Park when I was little. When I was in middle school my father became ill and we weren’t able to go camping anymore. My Father has on and off been good and bad, health wise, and now that I am in my 30’s I am the care taker of both of my parents. I really need to make some time for my self and I miss the outdoors. I can just see the tent, chair and mat set up with a great view of the Smoky’s relaxing by a fire.

May 10, 2013 at 12:08 pmWe moved to CO a few years ago and haven’t gone camping yet. We decided this is the summer we will go, got out the camping gear, and realized we had less gear than we thought! We need the tent at the very least. We don’t live far from the Rockies, so that’s where we would take our new gear. 🙂

May 10, 2013 at 10:50 amI love to camp! It’s one of our favorite things to do as a family (extended family too). Our favorite place to camp is on a riverbank somewhere where it is most peaceful. We float as well so this would be a great package to add to our floating experiences.

May 10, 2013 at 10:41 amMy 8 and 11 year-olds both love camping — in our backyard, with their grandparents in Colorado, or around our region in Western Pennsylvania. The new tent would be great for them to share, and my son needs a new fishing chair!

May 10, 2013 at 10:33 amAs someone with celiacs, one vacation I can enjoy and not worry about my food issues is camping! I set my own menu and can enjoy the peace and quiet. This summer I am planning a trip to Arches National Park and I would love to be able to have this quality tent, chair, and boy would a sleeping pad be awesome to have!

May 10, 2013 at 1:04 amWe sent my daughter to Camp Weekaneatit in Georgia last year and she still raves about “feeling like everyone else”. We would love to give her the opportunity to feel normal at camp again. Thanks for the contest.

May 9, 2013 at 10:32 pmMy 9 year old daughter was diagnosed with celiac a few months ago. It’s been a tough adjustment for her and she would think it soooo cool if she won this contest! She loves the outdoors and we’d love to go camping up the road at Mt Nebo State Park or many other places in our beautiful state.

May 9, 2013 at 9:55 pmI would love to win this, I would take it with me up to Indiana, and go camping with my great nieces and nephews and my sister who is also a Celiac. I would love going to some of the state parks in Indiana and bonding with them, I live out of state and rarely get the chance to do something special with them.

May 9, 2013 at 9:43 pmI’m not a big camper. So it would have to be in my backyard or someplace with toilets, showers and more.

May 9, 2013 at 8:01 pmWe’d love to win because camping is such a fun way to connect with my boys and we could really use some new equipment! We love to camp at our local state park.
We like to camp near Crescent Lake, Oregon and the kiddos could have their own tent!!! YAY

May 9, 2013 at 7:31 pmI grew up in Boulder, now live in Arizona, and I want to introduce my step-kids to a part of my history! I had to leave everything behind in Colorado when I moved, and it totally broke my heart. It’s beautiful up north in Arizona, and would be an amazing way to escape the heat!
Thanks 🙂
