Girl Scout Leadership Experience<br />
Camp is full of fun activities—archery, swimming, climbing the Alpine Tower, eating in the<br />
dining hall, cooking out, and making friends. The Girl Scout Leadership Experience is<br />
central to our summer resident camp program. Through activities and experiences, girls will<br />
gain skills to become leaders who are inspired to make the world a better place. Activities<br />
may include working on Girl Scout Journeys, grade level awards and badges. All campers<br />
will receive a camp patch.<br />
Group and Troop Camp<br />
Spend time exploring the wilds of Camp Graham or Camp Hardee while participating in<br />
swimming, archery, or canoeing. Campers enjoy other fun camp activities unique to the camp<br />
that the group decides to attend. Weeklong and mini sessions are designed for a group of girls<br />
and adults to attend resident camp as a unit. Stay for a weeklong session, arriving Sunday<br />
afternoon and leaving Friday afternoon. For a mini-session, spend three days at camp having<br />
a great time.<br />
At Group and Troop Camp, girls attend with their troop/group leader and other<br />
approved adult chaperones. The resident camp provides a “core” staff, including camp<br />
director, lifeguards, health supervisor, arts and crafts director, and dining hall staff. Each<br />
group has the opportunity to plan some of their own activities and can also participate<br />
in some waterfront activities, sports, crafts, and all-camp sessions led by the camp staff.<br />
Meals are prepared in the dining hall. It really is the best of all worlds—a camping<br />
experience away from home, with troop/group buddies, and meeting new girls from<br />
other areas at camp. A troop/group must have at least 4 girl participants to be eligible to<br />
register for group/troop camp.<br />
