Five Types of Summer Camp

Resident Camp (A.K.A. overnight camp): Great for girls in grades 2-12, Resident Camp gives girls the unique opportunity to discover their strengths and seek challenges all while having a great time. Girls stay overnight at one of our camp locations. They can stay for 2, 4, 6, or 13 nights and attend by themselves or with a friend. Girls can choose camps that focus on their interests.

Troop Camp: Girls attend summer camp with their troop, troop leader, and troop volunteers. Our camp staff lead the activities and coordinate meals—no training or experience is needed. Troop camp is an opportunity to bond, work together, and support one another as girls build campfires, go boating, practice archery, hike, do arts and crafts, and more.

Family Camp: Girls attend summer camp along with an adult and spend the night (or two) at one of our camp locations. This can be with their mother, father, guardian, grandparent, aunt, uncle—any adult they have an important relationship with. These camps give families the opportunity to explore all that summer camp has to offer while enjoying quality time together.

Day Camp: Girls attend summer camp for a single day—by themselves or with a friend—and do not stay overnight. Our council-led day camps have a little something for everyone. Whether you want to learn new skills—like campfire cooking—play teambuilding games, or make art, you're sure to find something that fits your interests.

Volunteer-Led Day Camp: These are all volunteer-planned and volunteer-led, single-day camps held in various regions throughout our council. If you are interested in these opportunities, please connect with your troop leader or service unit volunteers.
