Registration Instructions

2023 REGISTERING FOR DAY CAMP - ADDITIONAL Registration Instructions

Please use the links provided to register and submit payment. The appropriate registration form, health history form and medication information form are required for each person attending camp.


Registration will be open  mid February and run until  May 15th 2023 or until full.. Please register early.  We will not accept any registrations after May 15th. 


We will be limiting the number of Caddies we accept this year.  Registration is a first come first serve situation, so if you wish to Caddie for camp please sign up right away.

  

The camper fee is $170.  Caddie fee is $50.


Volunteer for the full week and your Camper or Caddie receives a discount. The cost will be $50.


Volunteer at camp for three or four days and your camper attends camp for $100.


A Boys' Unit may be available for boys entering grades 1-6 in the fall. Whether it is available or not will depend upon how many boys are registered.  We will give you plenty of advanced notice if we do not have enough boys to have a Boys Unit. Full-time volunteers may bring one boy at no charge.  The cost for boys is $20 per day for part-time volunteers.


We do not offer a day care.  Please make other arrangements for your little ones on the days you volunteer for camp.

Paying for Camp

Payment for camp is done during registration using a credit card. You may use cookie credits to pay for camp when registering using the registration links.


Grants are also available for campers.  Grant applications are available on the Girl Scout web site.  If you are applying for a grant, indicate that when you register.

General Information

GENERAL INFORMATION - CADDIE/CAMPER BEHAVIOR Expectations

  • Caddies and campers are to be respectful and considerate.
  • Caddies are in charge and, as such, expected to take on this responsibility in a respectful, yet authoritative manner.
  • Caddies must be willing to work with girls and set boundaries on what campers can and cannot do.
  • On day one, Caddies will set boundaries related to how much they are willing to let the campers touch or hang on them. (We discuss this in depth with the Caddies, but sometimes the Junior Caddies need help setting these boundaries.)
  • Caddies are not the campers’ peers; they are the leaders-in-training and, as such, expected to act appropriately.
  • The Caddie Director is available as needed during camp to support Caddies and address Caddie-related issues as needed. We encourage you to use her in this manner.


CAMP DISCIPLINE AND ENVIRONMENT - GUIDELINES FOR ADULT VOLUNTEERS

All planning and training is to meet the goal of a fun-filled, safe experience. Invariably, challenges will arise with individuals or a group of people. While camp is fun for most, weather and the age of our campers play a huge role in their behavior and in our own behavior:


  • For consistency and ease of gathering and moving from activity to activity, use the camp-wide quiet sign (raised right hand with GS sign). No talking is required. The sign will spread as others see and follow suit. We use this to both quiet and gather the girls. Raised voices are for fun, not discipline.


  • Buddy system always - adults and Caddies should never be alone with a camper.


  • Set a positive tone from the beginning as to who is in charge and what the unit rules are. Expect campers to acknowledge and respect Caddies as leaders. Expect a positive experience, and most will have one.


  • Not everyone wants to participate in every activity; often times a camper will vocalize negatively if they are unhappy. Do what you can to encourage participation, a positive attitude, and good behavior. Remind campers we are all trying new things and that it is ok to like something that another might not. We learn by doing.


  • Reference the Girl Scout Law, along with rules and expectations agreed to in each unit, at the beginning of camp. Remind the campers of both as often as necessary.


  • Deal with challenging behavior quickly and discreetly. If a situation escalates, or you feel uncomfortable handling it, contact the Camp Director immediately. She is willing and equipped to do so.


  • We do not expect you to discipline campers or Caddies, but we do ask you to encourage positive participation and contact the Camp Director (for campers) or Caddie Director (for Caddies) as quickly as possible when they are needed, to either assist you or take over and resolve a situation
