There’s a camp
for every girl!
Welcome to the 2018 edition of Camp
S’more magazine, which is jam-packed
with amazing outdoor opportunities for
girls at GSWPA camps!
No matter what a Girl Scout loves to do, there’s a perfect
camp program to help take her skills and confidence to the
next level—all while making memories she’ll cherish forever.
And whether this is a Girl Scout’s first summer with us or
her fifth, a young Daisy or seasoned Ambassador, there’s
something new and exciting for her to try.
From paddle boards to horses, STEM to Harry Potter,
GSWPA camps offer a variety of choices for every G.I.R.L.—
the go-getters, innovators, risk-takers, and leaders who
arrive at camp ready for adventure.
Camping with Girl Scouts is more than summer fun. The
experience helps girls build courage, learn new skills, and
unleash their leadership potential. At camp, girls take the
lead in a safe, supportive space where they’re free to
explore, learn, and have fun.
For more than a century, camping has been a cornerstone
of the Girl Scout experience. It’s a tradition that endures
because of the fun, friendship, and amazing adventures that
await girls every summer. The countdown to camp is on!
See you soon!
