CAMP PHILOSOPHY AND CAMP LIFE Camping provides girls a rich experience away from home. Camp is a great place for a girl to unlock her potential and discover the world and the great outdoor adventures that await her! This unique environment helps her develop positive self-esteem, leadership skills, and social skills all while having the time of her life! The summer camp experience is truly a building block in the development of girls into successful and resourceful young women. In this outdoor setting, girls develop a strong sense of self, gain practical life skills, become resourceful problem solvers, and cultivate healthy relationships by living and working together.

GREETINGS FROM THE OUTDOOR PROGRAM MANAGER In a world of screens, our girls need to engage with their environment. In a world of competition, our girls need connection. In a world of cynicism, they need support. Girl Scout camp is the place where that all happens. In this safe, girl-only, girl-led setting, girls discover the power within themselves. They find the strength and resilience to confidently navigate their lives. My work at summer camps for seven years and at Girl Scouts of Utah for 16 years has confirmed for me the importance of the outdoor experience. That’s why I’m here. I look forward to supporting our Girl Scouts through another summer of adventure and growth!

MEET THE OUTDOOR PROGRAM TEAM CLOUD RIM DIRECTOR I became a Camp Director so I could influence the character growth in the girls we serve, resulting in confident and brave go-getters. My hope is that all girls who come to Camp Cloud Rim feel a sense of family and belonging. Born and raised in Nebraska, I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a Bachelor of Journalism. I have been a Camp Director for 13 summers, and I am super excited to spend the 14th summer at Camp Cloud Rim. I can’t wait for your campers to join our camp family this summer!
Candice “Gypsy” Olson
TREFOIL RANCH DIRECTOR My favorite thing about camp is seeing the pure joy a girl experiences when she completes a new challenge – that grin on her face says she can do anything she puts her mind to. I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa with a B.A. in Leisure, Youth and Human Services. In total, I have been a member of camp staff at various Girl Scout camps for 10 summers, including Camp Cloud Rim and Trefoil Ranch. In addition to my camp experience, I also completed a semester with the National Outdoor Leadership School’s Outdoor Education program. I have loved directing Trefoil Ranch for the past three summers, and can’t wait for your girl to join us at camp in 2019!

PAYING FOR CAMP There are many options available to help get a girl to Girl Scout camp: Activity Credits, Tiered Pricing, and Activity Scholarships. Camp payments are due in full by May 22, 2019.
ACTIVITY CREDITS Girl Scout programming is powered by the Girl Scout Cookie Program through Activity Credits. Girls receive Activity Credits to help pay for summer camps, day camps, program activities, Girl Scout membership fees, and items in the Girl Scout Shop.
For every 50 packages of cookies (from 50-349 boxes), girls earn $12.50. For every 50 packages of cookies (starting at 350+ boxes), girls earn $15.00.
If a girl sells 1,350 packages of cookies, she can go to a week of horse camp using Activity Credits! Each camp or activity indicates the number of packages of cookies a girl needs to sell in order to attend that program using Activity Credits. Girls can work with a supportive adult to use these quantities to help set their cookie selling goals. Each camp requires a $50 non-refundable, non-transferable deposit in addition to the number of packages sold. To apply Activity Credits to a camp balance, simply bring in or mail the credits to any Girl Scout office with a note indicating to which girl and which program the credits should be applied. You will receive an email confirmation once the payment has been applied.
10
TIERED PRICING Tiered pricing makes it possible for all campers to have the same experience regardless of what their caregiver can afford. Tiered prices are listed with each camp session description and should be selected based on the camper’s budget. Girl Scouts of Utah strives to ensure all girls have the opportunity to experience camp. No financial documentation is required. Activity scholarships are available if assistance is needed to pay for Tier Three (T3). Tier One (T1): The actual cost to run camps: staffing, program supplies, food, and maintenance costs. Tier Two (T2): Partially subsidized cost for families that can pay a little more, but not the actual cost of camp. Tier Three (T3): The standard fee that all families are asked to pay. Girl Scouts of Utah subsidizes the entire remainder of the cost.
ACTIVITY SCHOLARSHIPS This program provides assistance for individual girl members who are registered Girl Scouts and wish to attend Girl Scouts of Utah-sponsored camps or programs, but are unable, due to financial restraints. This program is not a reward, nor is it a way to repay volunteer work a caregiver might have done in Girl Scouting. The decision to grant an activity scholarship, and the amount, is based on information provided on the application form. All information is confidential and discussed only by those responsible for allocating money. Applications for an activity scholarship may be submitted after the completion of the initial registration and a $50 non-refundable, nontransferable deposit is paid. Scholarship applications are due April 1, 2019. Scholarship awards will be applied to camp balances no later than May 1, 2019. All applications received after April 1, 2019, will be awarded based on funding available at that time. Apply for activity scholarships

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Girl Scouts of Utah plans quality programs for camp with the health, safety, and well-being of campers as our first priority. Some sessions may be altered or canceled due to weather, fire, natural disaster, staffing concerns, or low registration numbers. The Camp Director may determine whether a girl is competent to participate in any activity, and, if necessary, transfer her to another program. When necessary, campers will participate in alternate activities. No refunds will be issued if changes are made to activities due to weather, fire, or natural disaster. If a session is canceled due to low registration numbers, campers will be given the opportunity to select another program.
