There is a little camp in all of us. Once you’ve been to camp, the lessons never leave you! What began as a dream in 2018 soon became a reality by 2022. Empower Her — the campaign to transform our camps and our girls — set out to improve four camps with capital and programmatic updates.
Studies show that outdoor experiences are essential to leadership development in girls, and we know that camp is an important part of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience. With camp usage up 46% since 2013, ensuring our girls and volunteers have modernized camp facilities and impactful programming is critical.

To date, generous community members and supporters have helped raise over $5.5 million dollars for camp improvements — improvements that make camp even more magical. By 2022, many planned improvements were completed, and additional enhancements should be completed by September 2023. We are looking forward to celebrating all of the wonderful improvements to our camps!
