Get ready for a fun outdoor adventure made just for our youngest Girl Scouts! Our My First Campout program is perfect for Girl Scouts who are excited to explore nature, try new things, and make new friends.
Girls will enjoy simple camp activities like going on a nature walk, singing silly camp songs, making fun crafts, and playing outdoor games. They'll learn what it's like to be at camp by making new friends, sitting around a campfire, and enjoying fun activities with their fellow Girl Scouts. Everything is designed to be safe, playful, and just the right size for our little campers. With caring leaders guiding the way, girls will build confidence, practice teamwork, and discover how fun the great outdoors can be. It's the perfect first step into the world of Girl Scout camping! By the end of the program, every girl will feel proud of her new camp skills and excited for more outdoor adventures!
