Volunteer Opportunities

Spend a part of your summer guiding campers through the great outdoors. Encourage curiosity, inspire adventurers, and be a role model for girls by volunteering at day camp! We rely on dedicated volunteers to help us deliver seven successful, fun-filled weeks of day camp each summer. The number of girls accepted for camp depends on the number of adult volunteers. Grab your friends and sign up to give girls a week full of outdoor adventure.

Volunteers are Awesome!

There are great benefits to being a day camp volunteer:

• Experience the satisfaction of helping girls learn and have fun outdoors.

• Spend a week making lifelong friends and memories.

• Guarantee placement in the day camp of your choice.

• Receive a credit up to $90 for one girl relative who is a currently registered Girl Scout to attend a GSOH day camp.

• Most camps provide separate programs for the preschoolers and boys (grades K–5) of volunteers for a minimal cost.

How to Become a Day Camp Volunteer

Review “What Does It Mean to be a Day Camp Volunteer?” and complete the Day Camp Volunteer Request Form at gsoh.org/daycamp. Note, all volunteers must be a registered Girl Scout member. For instructions on how to register, see the section below.

Please try to sign up by Friday, March 17, 2023. This lets us know how many girls we can accommodate when planning for each camp. If you miss the early deadline, we will certainly still accept your assistance as needed.
