What Is a Girl Scout Camp?
Girl Scout camps are properties designed to host opportunities for Girl Scouts to explore nature, build character, and connect with peers and mentors—either during the day or as overnight experiences. You can help keep our Girl Scout camps safe, well-maintained, and beautiful through volunteer work parties at Camp River Ranch, Camp Lyle McLeod, Camp St. Albans, Camp Robbinswold, Camp Towhee, and Camp Evergreen.
