About

History

Volunteer-run camp has deep roots in our community, dating all the way back to the 1980s. For decades, it was a summer staple—running strong every year until 2019. Like so many things, the COVID-19 pandemic put our plans on pause. After a five-year break, we were beyond excited to bring this beloved tradition back in 2024!

What makes this camp extra special? It’s powered entirely by volunteers. Every activity, craft, game, and song happens because of dedicated adults who give their time outside of work, family, and everyday life to make it all possible for our campers.

But we can’t do it alone. Parent support is a huge part of what keeps camp running smoothly. Even if you can’t take a full week off, there are plenty of ways to pitch in. Check out our Volunteer page to see how you can get involved—every bit helps!

What to Expect

Campers are divided into 7 units that they will stay with for the entire week. We keep them as close to the same grade level as possible so that each unit's activities are age-appropriate. Each unit will have 2 adults and at least 1 teen volunteer to help lead activities and keep your campers happy!

Each camper will receive a t-shirt that they will decorate themselves, a bandana, and a fun patch. Campers and volunteers are expected to bring a bag lunch with them each day.

Activities range from crafts, to nature exploration, to traditional Girl Scout songs and skits. Girl Scouts is girl-led, so each unit will follow the lead of the girls for the day's activities.

Day camp runs from 8:30 am-3:00 pm daily, Monday-Wednesday. Thursday is an overnight, where each unit will be cooking their lunch over the campfire as a group. Friday morning campers will need to be picked up at 11 am.

Aftercare is available for an additional fee.
