Volunteer-Led Day Camps
Volunteer-led day camps are put together by Girl Scouts, for Girl Scouts! These camps are hosted by River Valleys volunteers and are a great way to learn new skills, meet other Girl Scouts in the area, and most importantly—have a rip-roaring good time!
While hosted by specific service units, these camps are open to all Girl Scout sisters.
Philosophies and Guidelines
BLSU has an established volunteer-run day camp program with two main goals:
- To provide a safe, fun, friendly, and educational outdoor camp experience; during which, girls have ample opportunities to learn about themselves and the world around them.
- To offer leadership opportunities for young women to progress with increasing responsibilities through Jr. Caddie, Caddie, Sr. Caddie, and young adult roles. For more information on Caddies see our Caddie page.
