What will my camper eat while at camp?
We provide well balanced, kid-friendly meals three times a day
and always have snacks should a camper need one in between meals.
What if my camper has dietary restrictions?
When you are registering your camper for camp, make sure that
you note any dietary restrictions and food allergies in the
registration form. We often have campers who are vegetarian, vegan,
gluten-free, lactose intolerant and much more. We always make sure to
have food that suits every camper and staff's needs.
How should I prepare my camper for their first week of camp?
Talk about and practice self-care. Examples of this would be
taking a shower by themselves, brushing their teeth, brushing their
hair, putting on deodorant, etc.
What happens if my camper has lice?
At check-in, your camper will be screened for lice/nits.
Campers will not be allowed to stay if they have lice/nits and
parents/guardians are responsible for treatments. No refunds are given
for lice/nits. Girls may return to camp after receiving treatment at
home and, if found to be lice/nit free, may then join camp.
Can I call my camper while they are at camp?
Campers are not allowed to receive or make phone calls while at
camp. If there is a problem or if your camper is not adjusting well, a
camp counselor will contact you.
Where can I send mail to my camper?
You can send mail to your camper to their camp location! Please
be sure to address the mail as below so that it is easier for us to
get mail to your camper:
Camper Name
Camper Program (i.e.
Llama Trek)
The Camp's Address
City, State and Zip Code
Camp addresses can be found here.
You can also drop mail off at check-in so your camper receives a
letter in the first few days. If campers would like to send letters
home while they are at camp, we suggest you send her with pre-stamped
and addressed stationary.
Do you provide transportation to camp?
No- transportation to camp in summer 2022 will not be provided.
What should my camper pack?
A packing list for resident campers will be provided in our
2022 camper packet (e-mailed out to all campers). For day campers, we ask that they bring
a swimsuit, towel, sunscreen and water bottle with them every day.
Does my camper have to be a Girl Scout to attend camp?
You do not have to be a currently registered Girl Scout to
participate in our programs. However, non-registered girls will be
registered as Girl Scouts for $25. Registering as a Girl Scout means
you will have access to all of the programs offered throughout the
year, and you will be the first to hear about camp next year.
Do you provide scholarships for camp?
We want every girl to be able to attend camp regardless of
their financial situation. Please note: The deadline to apply for a
2022 Campership has passed.
Do you provide any discounts for camp?
- Early registrations (received or post marked by February 28,
2022) will receive a $50 discount per week long or longer resident
camp sessions.
- Cookie Dough, Daisy Dollars and Nut Bucks
may be used to help pay for day or resident camp programs.
What is the cancellation policy for camp or other Girl Scout
programs?Please contact us at info@girlscoutsp2p.org or
800-672-2148 for questions about the cancellation policy.
Can my camper bring a friend to camp?
Girls will have many opportunities to make new friends during
their time at camp and coming on their own is always an exciting
adventure. However, some girls prefer to attend with a close friend.
Two girls wishing to attend camp as buddies must provide that
information in their registration. Space is provided to indicate one
friend’s name, and both buddies must request each other. We cannot
accommodate more than one buddy combination per girl. Cabin/tent
assignments will be honored for one buddy only.
What activities can my camper participate in?
Each camp has various activities that girls can participate in.
Most of these include the climbing wall, archery, boating (canoeing,
kayaking or paddle boating), hiking, arts and crafts, daily swimming
(weather dependent), outdoor cooking, team building activities,
Congdon Adventure Park (Keyauwee Program Center only) and many more!
What if my camper doesn't feel well while at camp?
They will see our health supervisor to determine what the issue
may be. If the issue persists, a member of the camp team will call the
family to let them know what is happening and to decide the best
course of action.
What if my camper takes medication?
We have a health supervisor who will dispense medication to
campers according to the labeled directions unless we receive a note
from your physician. All medications must be in its original
packaging. This includes all over-the-counter medications, vitamins
and topical creams.
Can my Girl Scout use Cookie Dough, Daisy Dollars or Nut Bucks to
pay for camp?
Yes, we have a form that you can fill out to pay for camp using
these P2P monies.
What do I do if there are no spots available in my preferred program?
You can join the waitlist for your preferred program at no
cost! We recommend registering for your second choice program, just in
case no spots become available in the preferred program. If a spot
becomes available, we will reach out to members of the waitlist in the
order they registered, and we can transfer payment over to the
preferred program.
How are camp staff trained?
Staff go through 14 days of staff training. Our staff are
trained and certified in all of our activities and on any and all
topics that may arise during camp, such as senstitive issues,
homesickness, etc.
What should I do if I need to pick up my camper early?
If you need to pick-up your camper early, this is not a
problem. Please let camp staff know during check-in.
