Problems solvers needed! Put your imagination to the test as you take on STEM challenges this week at camp. How will you find solutions to everyday camp problems? Campers will approach traditional camp activities with a STEM perspective. Become a citizen scientist this week and earn progress towards your new Maker badges.
GSNI camp staff will be hosting family and troop camps Fridays through Sundays throughout the summer at Camp Dean and Camp McCormick. All meals will be provided by camp staff. These meals and snacks will be a combination of family-style meals in the dining hall and unit cookouts. Camp staff will assist in cookouts. Both troops and families can participate in all available camp activities for the weekend including all facilitated outdoor activities. Core camp staff will be on site to assist groups during their weekend stay. Camp staff will facilitate outdoor skills and activities, themed arts and crafts, games, and badgework throughout their session.
Troops: Each troop will reserve a unit to attend camp. Troops do not need to come with family members but must provide adequate Girl Scout-to-adult ratios. Troops must consist of a minimum of 5 youth and 2 adult attendees. Registrations that do not have minimum size or appropriate ratios will be turned away.
Are you an experienced leader with your GSNI Indoor Overnight Training? Your troop can rent out a lodge for the weekend! Troops can rent the McCleary-Shaff Lodge or Charlies Lodge at Camp Dean!
All troops and families will be sharing unit/lodge space with other groups at camp. Groups register each participant individually. The deposit for troop and family camps is $50/participant and remaining balance can be placed on payment plan. It is recommended groups register all participants early as space is limited.
Each session begins with check-in at 7 p.m. on Friday night. Check-out at 10 a.m. on Sunday.
*Note: Payments for troop campers will be automatically withdrawn by ActiveNet on the 15th of each month beginning January 15, 2024 and ending April 15, 2024.
