Girl Scout Camps Summer 2023

Girl Scout Camp is Magic.

Fun is what you’ll find there, but you'll leave with so much more. You’ll unlock creativity, skills, and leadership that you’ll never leave behind. At overnight Resident Camps (Bear Creek Aquatic Camp and Camp Pennyroyal), you might paddle across a lake, sail a boat, hike a trail, discover nature, and swim with friends when you’re not creating an artistic masterpiece or climbing through the trees in our challenge courses. Special meals together and classic camp songs (beside a fire you helped build) will fill your perfect evenings before cozy nights spent in the great outdoors.

At PLC Day Camps (in the heart of Louisville), you’ll spend a few days with old pals and new friends as you explore topics that interest you. Our council’s PLC is an amazing campus where you’ll stretch your leadership. You might try out indoor rock climbing, get creative in a Makers Space lab, and visit with guest experts from fields that match your interests. That’s only the beginning.

Our staff welcomes everyone. Did you know our camps welcome your friends who are not-yet Girl Scouts? Invite pals to attend with you! Camp is the ultimate introduction to everything Girl Scouts can experience. Some campers even attend more than one session. On top of the amazing camps we outline in this guide, many Volunteer-Led Day Camps will provide closer-to-home options for Girl Scouts and troops in areas throughout the council. Camp is where you grow by doing things you’ve never done before. You can take safe risks in a fun environment, surrounded by strong friends and adults who believe in you. There’s nothing else like it.

Find freedom and explore. You’ll leave camp with new skills, a happier understanding of our world, amazing friendships, and new confidence from fun adventures: the knowledge, values, and superpowers you’ll use long into adulthood.
