Resident camp is a unique sleep-away opportunity that gives girls a powerful experience building independence, character, friendships, and an understanding of the natural world, all within a safe and supportive environment. Established in 1929, Camp Molly Lauman has a rich heritage of encouraging girls to try new things, practice newfound skills, and make lifelong memories. We want each girl to have a positive experience learning more about herself and becoming comfortable in the outdoors.

Camp Molly Lauman is located in Lucasville, Ohio, about 1 ½ hours from Columbus.
Camp Molly Lauman offers programs for girls who have completed grades K-12, regardless of whether or not they are a registered Girl Scout (non-members pay an extra $15 membership fee). Girls sign up to attend individually; it is not a troop event.
Girls choose a program based on their interest and grade completed in school. Generally, all the girls in a program will share a living unit, typically consisting of platform tents, a picnic shelter, a latrine, a hand washing station, and a fire ring. Each group has 10-24 girls with three to five adult camp counselors. Resident camp sessions vary in length, depending upon the program and age level of the participants. We encourage adults to work together with their girls when choosing a summer resident camp session. Resident camp is most successful when adults and girls make a decision jointly, taking the expectations of both into careful consideration. We know your camper will have the experience of a lifetime exploring the woods, trying new activities, and making new friends. We hope you will join us this summer as we build girls of courage, confidence, and character at camp!

• • • • •
Singing silly songs Playing games Making new friends Badge activities Outdoor adventures
Plus, tons of free-choice activities are available for each group to do together. Camp counselors will help girls plan their schedule on the first night of camp. Girls could pick group activities such as: • • • • • • • •
Creek stomping Sling shotting Gaga ball Making friendship bracelets Watching an outdoor movie Sleeping under the stars A tea party with one of our international counselors Visiting the camp garden
• Hiking • Letterboxing (a type of treasure hunt) • Playing parachute games • Putting on a puppet show or play • Going on a fairy hunt • Roasting marshmallows • Snacktivities
WHERE GIRLS SLEEP Camp is rustic. Girls stay in platform tents, cabins, or yurts with other girls who have all signed up for the same camp program. Each unit has pit latrines, a hand washing station, and a picnic shelter. A central shower house is available for all girls to use. In case of severe weather, indoor shelter is available. Platform Tent
Platform tents are heavy canvas structures with wooden floors and four beds. Open flaps allow for light and ventilation. Cabins have lights, screened windows, and four beds. Yurts are a cool cross between tents and cabins. They have ceiling fans, lights, screened windows, and four sets of bunk beds. The lodge is a large open room. Girls sleep on folding cots and have access to indoor bathrooms. This is the only sleeping arrangement where counselors sleep in the same room with the campers.
Cabin
Please check specific program descriptions to see where each group is scheduled to stay.
CAMP STAFF Our staff members go through an intense screening, selection, and training process. Many staff members are aspiring teachers, outdoor educators, and former campers. They come from all over Ohio, the United States, and the world to work here!
oods... w e h t n ei my hom , n a m u olly La With the exception of Camp M Yurt
campers who sleep in the lodge, staff members do not stay in the same sleeping quarters as campers. Instead, counselor quarters are near the center of the unit, where they can monitor all groups easily. At night, camp counselors check on girls to make sure that they are settling down well. Often, they’ll read stories or sing them to sleep. Staff members are always within earshot, if they are needed.
MEALS Most meals are served family style in the camp dining hall. We also do campfire cookouts where girls will help plan and prepare their meals. Meals are kid-friendly and healthy. We prepare many dishes from scratch, which allows us to easily accommodate most common allergies and dietary restrictions. Typical meals include homemade pizza, cheese quesadillas with tomato soup, and breakfast burritos. Picky eaters can usually find something that they like on our salad bar or sandwich station.
...I would stay all year if I cou ld.
BRING A FRIEND! Girls can request ONE buddy to bunk with at camp. Requests for multiple buddies will not be honored. To be bunk buddies girls must be registered for the same program and both girls must request each other by name, not troop number. Most girls come to camp on their own, without a buddy, so if your camper is nervous about not knowing anybody, let her know that there will be many girls just like her who are eager to make new friends! If she has more than one friend coming, don’t worry. Girls can hang out with all of their friends, new and old, during most of the daytime activities, like swimming, meals, and game time.

Want a camp experience that’s nearby, but where you don’t have to spend the night? Day camp is a fantastic opportunity for you to experience the great outdoors in a five-day camp session that’s fun, affordable, and close to home. Campers will learn the spirit of competition and sportsmanship as they compete in games and challenges, plus enjoy all the fun of traditional camp, like exploring nature, cooking outdoors, making crafts, and much more! With 17 different locations and nine weeks to choose from, we hope that something will fit your needs and busy summer schedule. Registration opens on April 1, 2016.
Which day camp is best for you?
We offer day camps throughout the council; as far north as Wooster, as far south as Rio Grande, as far east as Dillon State Park and as far west as Paint Creek State Park. We also utilize many of the metro parks such as Blendon Woods, Slate Run, and Christmas Run Park not to mention our own camps-Crooked Lane, Ken-Jockety, and Beckoning Trails. Cost for a week of day camp ranges between $35-$95 and depends on whether it is an all day camp or a twilight camp in addition to what is offered. Adults, can you spare five days this summer to make a difference in the lives of girls? Day camp depends on dedicated volunteers to have nine successful, funfilled weeks each year. The number of girls who can be accepted to day camp directly correlates to the number of adult volunteers. As a volunteer, you’ll receive training to become familiar with the program, learn basic outdoor skills, and receive a day of orientation at the site by the day camp director. Please consider volunteering so we can provide as many opportunities as possible for every girl who wants to attend! Check out all the day camp opportunites at gsoh.org.
