Camping

A Special Activity for All Girls

Camping is a great way to build new skills, get 
a sense of community, and develop a deep appreciation for nature. Whether you go for a day,
 a week or longer, Girl Scout camping gives you an opportunity to grow, explore, and have fun—always under the guidance of caring, trained adults. 
Every girl should have a chance to camp! 

If you're one of those leaders that your idea of camping is "Camp Marriott", please let us know 
at the SU level, as there are plenty of troops that 
will take your girls camping along with them so 
that they can get that experience! 

Council Camping Training

Leaders need to obtain 3 levels 
of training before camping.

The Camping Skills training sessions are 
presented in three progressive levels and need 
to be taken in order. Level I is a prerequisite for 
Level II, and Level II is a prerequisite for Level III. 

Minimum enrollment for Level I and Level III is five. 
Minimum enrollment for Level II is 15. 
Maximum enrollment for each training session is 30. 

In order to progressively practice these 
new skills, it is recommended that each 
level be taken at least one month apart.
