Hi Parents & Caregivers!Have you ever felt so excited that you just can’t wait? The feeling you getwhen you’re looking forward to something with friends or when you’rethinking about new and fun things that could happen? We love that feeling!At Girl Scout Camp, girls have new experiences that give them that super-excited, jumping, giggling, butterflies-in-the-stomach feeling. Experiences like exploring the outdoors, creating their own masterpiece, climbing thechallenge tower, kayaking down the river, or going on an adventure trip with new friends. Camp is designed to give every girl a chance to succeed,build friendships, challenge herself, and have fun.

Anything is possible!This summer, your camper will make new friends, have tons of fun, andhave more “wow” moments than she’s ever imagined. Anything is possible at Girl Scout Camp – the sky is the limit!

When she goes to camp… • She will grow in self-confidence and know that her voice counts.• She will support others and be supported.• She will increase her circle of friends, lead a group, follow others,

compromise, and make decisions for herself.• With other girls, she will create a community that values differences.• And, she will discover that anything is possible!
