2020 CitrusPeel Gold Edition

Girl Scouts of
Citrus Council:
Property Update
For the first time in nearly 50 years, the
sounds of girls singing, and their squeals of
fun were conspicuously absent throughout the
campgrounds at Riverpoint and Mah-Kah-Wee.
But – while COVID may have put an abrupt stop
to troop weekend camping in March and forced
summer camp to shift to a virtual experience,
Citrus Council saw an opportunity.
Now that both properties were empty of girls,
the companies contracted to complete the first
phase of the Crymes Family STEAM Leadership
Center and the restoration of the hurricanedamaged
shoreline at Riverpoint were free to
work daily. Both projects are now complete and
ready to welcome visitors as soon as social
distancing restrictions are lifted. Both projects
are now complete and ready to welcome girls.
