Camp & Outdoors

Girl Scout camp—more than just s’mores. In 2022 we excitedly welcomed over 1,000 campers to Girl Scout Camp. We kept a few COVID-19 precautions in place and the health and safety of Girl Scouts continued to be our top priority. For the first time in a couple of years, Girl Scouts were able to take part in the full camp experience. Girl Scouts built skills like resiliency, teamwork, and grit in the great outdoors.

One impact of COVID-19 that was righted this summer was Girl Scouts wishing to complete their fifth and final Wilderness Trip and earn their Red Suspenders. Six campers and two trip leaders set off on canoes, skirting the Canadian shores of Quetico Provincial Park for 18 days. These Girl Scouts planned their itinerary, packed their supplies, and headed out–braving the elements, supporting one another, and making memories that will last them a lifetime.

“Lily’s days at camp have been truly life-changing, and we owe a debt of gratitude. She formed a definite bond with her cabin mate and ALL of the counselors. Girl Scouts and CBT is way more than just a CAMP!”
