2024 Camp Adventure Guide

Our Program Philosophy We believe everything that happens at Girl Scout Camp is part of the camp experience. Our campers grow through many different adventures during their stay. They try new things, build confidence and make new friends. They also spend time away from their families in a new environment. While at camp, they learn to be part of a community, to make decisions together, and to take responsibility for their actions and surroundings. They participate in “kapers” to keep camp areas clean and beautiful, share responsibilities at mealtimes and cook outs and support each other through new challenges and amazing adventures.

In our safe and supportive environment, campers become active and engaged participants in the learning process!

Ways to Get Outdoors As a Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri member, you have access to Overnight, Day and Troop Camp options that offer their own brand of adventure and innovative programming. When a Girl Scout participates in camp, they have room to explore, play and grow, while finding their strengths and challenging themselves along the way!

Troop Camp Girl Scout Troop Camp is a year round opportunity for Girl Scouts in troops to experience camping with their friends and leaders. Troops can access everything our camps offer and make the adventure all their own! Certified Activity Staff are available on select weekends throughout the year, allowing leaders to have fun with their troop, while the activities are taken care of by trained professionals.

Day Camp Girl Scout Day Camps are an excellent option for first-time campers and busy families. With activities ranging from DIY projects to exploring the night’s sky, there is something for everyone! At Day Camp, campers enjoy meeting new friends and participating in a variety of new challenges. Sessions are run by volunteers and are held throughout the region.
