A Message From Our CEO
Hello Campers and Caregivers!
We’re incredibly excited to begin the 2025 Summer Camp Season! Camp is a time for young people to immerse themselves in experiences that go beyond fun—it’s a place for lifelong memories and essential life skills to take root. At our beautiful camp properties, everyone is welcomed into a supportive environment full of positivity, grounded in Girl Scout traditions and strengthened by lasting friendships. With this year’s theme, "Forge Your Path... Find Your Place at Girl Scout Summer Camp 2025!" we’re focused on self-discovery, community-building, personal growth, and belonging.
Girl Scout camp offers so much more than just a summer activity—it’s a unique experience with benefits that last a lifetime:
1 Adventure-Based Learning: Every day at camp brings new opportunities to learn through exploration and teamwork. Campers embrace their outdoor experiences joyfully by collaborating and solving challenges together.
2 Building Courage, Confidence, and Character: Our camp programs encourage independence and resilience, helping young people grow into confident, capable leaders ready to take on life’s adventures.
3 Supportive, Caring Mentors: With highly trained and compassionate counselors, campers are accepted, supported, and empowered to be their true selves. Our counselors ensure that campers build trust and experience a true sense of belonging.
As a parent of young children, I know how important it is to know that your child is safe and cared for by experienced personnel, and that they can grow and try new things in a welcoming environment. Our Girl Scout camps provide our youth with a safe place to build lifelong skills and confidence in a positive environment.
We invite you to explore our programs with your child and help them find the summer adventure that speaks to them! By enrolling in Girl Scout camp, you’re giving them not just a season of excitement, but skills and memories they’ll carry forward. Don’t miss out— register today and help them forge their path this summer!
Yours in Girl Scouting,
Cara Biddlecom CEO | Girl Scouts of Western New York, Inc.
