CAMP LINGO
Campcraft: Camping activities where girls build skills in
fire building, knife safety, knots, Leave No Trace camping,
and more! Hootenanny: Girl Scout sing-alongs and skits take place
during this special last night tradition where awards are
presented to campers.
Greenies: Girl Scouts used to wear uniforms at the camp
called greenies—dark green shorts with a white blouse.
Today, we continue to honor this tradition with a modern
twist; each evening for dinner, we ask that campers wear
khaki shorts with a white shirt. Kapers: This is the special Girl Scout way to say "chores."
As a Girl Scout, our camps belong to all of us, and it's up
to everyone to help keep them clean! We schedule a time
for girls to do camp-wide kapers each day.
Polar Bear: An early morning swim. Campers earn a
special pin for daily participation in this camp activity!
Road Runner: An early morning run. Campers earn a
special pin for daily participation in this camp activity!
SWAPS: A tradition of Girl Scouts is exchanging
keepsakes. Referred to as “Special Whatchamacallits
Affectionately Pinned Somewhere” or “Share With A Pal.”
Me Time: Campers are allowed to rest and have some
quiet “me” time in their units. This time is designed for
mail and letter writing, reading books, taking naps, or
playing quiet games.
