At either of our Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore day camps, Camp Amity Acres (Waretown) or Camp Sacajawea (Farmingdale), you can feel at ease, knowing your daughter is well cared for, happy, learning and exploring the great outdoors! She’ll have the time of her life discovering the wonders of nature, trying new things, making friends and much more.
Our Mission
Girl Scout Promise
Girl Scouts builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.
Both of our camps provide outdoor activities and traditional summer camp experiences in a supportive and encouraging environment. Our camps give girls the space to discover a strong sense of self, gain practical life skills, become resourceful problem solvers, and cultivate healthy relationships. Girl Scout camp will always be a place where girls can: • Explore the great outdoors • Grow by trying new things • Build her problem-solving skills • Make awesome new friends • Be a leader
On my honor, I will try: To serve God and my country, To help people at all times, And to live by the Girl Scout Law.
Girl Scout Law
I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
Camp Amity Acres and Camp Sacajawea is open to all girls, ages 3-15, and their sibling brothers, ages 3-12, for an unforgettable summer. You don’t have to be a Girl Scout to join the fun, so bring a friend! For information about camp or to learn about how to join, volunteer, partner or donate to Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore, visit GSFun.org or call (800) 785-2090.

Health & Safety Safety is our top priority at camp. We are proud to be able to say that in the past 2 years we ran successful, COVID-free camp sessions at both of our facilities. We made accommodations that ensured the health and well-being of all campers, families, and staff. We know that children need camp now more than ever and we accomplished all of these things while upholding our standards of quality care and outdoor fun! • Our staff completed courses and took part in webinars that were offered by the American Camp Association and other organizations that focused on keeping all campers safe during the summer. • We limit the size of our units to optimize social distancing practices while keeping quality fun! • Drop-off is carpool-line style. Upon arrival, we ask families to complete a brief health survey and take temperatures of campers. Campers sanitize their hands before they enter camp. • A group (unit) will travel together for their activities and stay together all week and will not co-mingle with other cohorts. Campers sanitize their hands after each activity. • All equipment and areas are sanitized after each use. • Pick-up is structured so adults will stay in their cars and have their campers brought to them. • If your camper is ill or injured and needs to be sent home, you will be called and are required to make arrangements for your child to be picked up in a reasonable amount of time. • If a child is ill, shows flu-like symptoms, has a fever or is vomiting, the camper MUST be picked up and cannot return to camp until she/he is symptom-free for 72 hours without medication.

After Camp Adventures: What better way to keep the magic of camp going than staying after for more themed adventures and fun!

Registration is required for all/any After Camp Adventures. Campfire Every week, campers are welcome to stay after for more themed activities, and swimming weather permitting (Thursday at Camp Amity Acres, and Wednesday at Camp Sacajawea).

Leadership Opportunities Girl Scout Camp is where girls thrive in the great outdoors, take on new challenges and gain leadership skills that last a lifetime. Girls who grew up at either of the Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore day camps enjoy sharing their love of camp with the younger girls who follow in their footsteps. Leadership opportunities for these girls are available during specific weeks of camp. Camp Program Aide (CPA) Training: Girls entering eighth grade and above, can take part in our two-week Camp Program Aide Training which is the first step in bridging the gap from being a camper to becoming a future counselor. This is a progression based experience that prepares girls for roles in youth leadership in and outside of camp. Girls will explore what it means to be a leader and learn more about themselves in the process. They will learn outdoor skills, problem solving, and conflict resolution. There is a strong emphasis on the learn-by doing philosophy under the supervision of our experienced staff. Upon successful completion of CPA training, girls may be invited to volunteer for up to two CPA Mentorship weeks and receive their Program Aide Pin. • Camp Amity Acres, Week 4 & 5: July 11-15 and 18-22, 2022 • Camp Sacajawea, Week 4 & 5: July 11-15 and 18-22, 2022 CPA Mentorship (Week 1-9): Our CPA Mentorship program gives girls who have completed CPA training the opportunity to share their leadership and outdoor skills with younger campers under the guidance of experienced camp staff. CPA Specialization: After successful completion of the CPA Leadership Training girls have the option of learning specialized skills in a particular specialty area. Girls will shadow senior staff to learn more about the specialized camp activities (ie. archery, aquatics, adventure elements, environmental nature, and arts & crafts) and the requirements necessary to work in these areas. • Camp Amity Acres, Week 7: August 1-5, 2022 • Camp Sacajawea, Week 6: July 25-29, 2022
Cultivate your Girl Scout Power: Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors are invited to join us for a week of exploring where food comes from, tracing the carbon footprint of each meal, and finding out how to reduce that footprint. Other program activities include: planting crops and cultivating a garden, earning the Sow What Journey Award, taking part in a Gold Award workshop, and receiving guidance on how to begin a Gold Award project. This program includes the Sow What Journey Book and badge. • Camp Amity Acres, Week 3: July 5-8, 2022 • Camp Sacajawea, Week 3: July 5-8, 2022
