Take your troop on an adventure they’ll remember for the rest of their lives! Girl Scouts River Valleys’ troop camp sessions are an easy way for girls and volunteers to experience the great outdoors together. Our camp staff lead the activities, provide outdoor knowledge, and coordinate meals—troop volunteers attend to participate alongside the troop and provide supervision. No training or experience is needed.
Troop camp is an opportunity to bond, work together, and support one another as girl build campfires, go boating, practice archery, hike, do arts and crafts, and more. Our camps are safe, hands-on, and inspiring, and our locations will introduce your troop to our region’s landscape, from woods and wetlands to prairies and rolling hills.
