THANK YOU!!!
Thank you everyone who helped to make Day Camp 2019 a great success. We cannot have Day Camp without all of our wonderful volunteers: Day Camp Staff/Planning Team, Adult Volunteers, and Caddie Volunteers.
Also, thank you to all of the campers who came.
We hope that everyone had a wonderful time and a great experience and we hope you return next year.
If you would like to share any comments for what went great and what could be improved, please share them with us. We are always trying to improve our camp. Please send your comments to our camp director, Carebear.
THANK YOU!!!!!

Volunteer
Our day camp is an ALL VOLUNTEER run day camp. We organize and help at camp because we love enriching girls lives.
Please consider volunteering to help for the week or more by being on the planning team.
If you are able to volunteer at camp please fill out the adult volunteer registration form. If you wish to help on the planning committee, contact our day camp director
Events and Activities
Every year we work to provide a wide variety of camp activities that will enrich and enhance each campers experience. These activities include: swimming, boating, archery, team building, hiking, cooking outdoors, educational lessons and lots of fun! See our activities page for more information.
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.
