Paying For Camp

At the time of registration, individuals attending resident camp sessions and Edith Mayo Day Camp may either pay the full amount or a $25 non-refundable deposit. If only paying the deposit, you will receive a mailed invoice five weeks before the start of your camp session. Families can pay their remaining balance with a credit card online via Ebiz event management or by calling 800-845-0787. Payment is due in full 30 days before the camp session start date.

Troop camp and volunteer-led day camp registrations must be paid in full at the time of registration.

Financial Assistance

If the total cost of camp is not affordable, you can request financial assistance to help with the cost. You must register for camp with a deposit prior to submitting the online financial assistance application. No proof of income is required, and requests are confidential.

Note: Only Girl Scout members are eligible for financial assistance, which is also limited to one camp session per year per member. For more information about how assistance is calculated and awarded read the full financial assistance policy.

Financial Assistance for Resident Camp

Please register for your session/s online and then request assistance for paying the remaining balance by submitting the “Council-Led Resident or Troop Camp” portion of our online financial assistance application. Or, paper financial assistance forms are available upon request. A $25 non-refundable deposit will be required for the camp registration.

Financial Assistance for Troop Camp

Cookie Credits

Girls earn Cookie Credits when they sell Girl Scout Cookies. The more cookies sold, the more credits earned. All girls benefit from cookie sales, which help subsidize camp registration costs and pay for camp upkeep.

Q. My girl earned lots of cookie credits this cookie season, what happens now that camp is cancelled?

  • Due to COVID-19, the 2020 Cookie Credits expiration date is extended by one year. 2020 Cookie Credits will expire on September 15, 2022.

When girls sell 825 or more packages of cookies, they may be eligible for a half-off camp coupon (maximum value $250). A girl can earn a free camp coupon (max value $500) if she sells 1500 packages of cookies. The $250 camp coupon and $500 camp coupon can be used on two individual resident camp sessions, or combined to save up to $750 off one resident camp session.

Q. My girl earned a camp coupon this cookie season, what happens now that camp is cancelled?

  • The 2020 half-off camp coupon and 2020 free camp coupon cookie rewards have been extended for use during the 2021 camp season. The 2020 coupon expiration dates have been extended by one year (expires August 31, 2021).
