All of our camps are united under the same vision: Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character who make the world a better place. In this spirit, we create a camp community that helps campers unlock their potential and discover the world, while developing life skills.

Day camps and resident camps are powerful, positive experiences for girls. Living away from home, in an outdoor, recreational setting provides a foundation for tremendous growth. Best of all, camp is fun. Great friends, exciting activities, and an atmosphere that lets girls be themselves are just three of the reasons why camp is so much fun. 

Girl Scouts of Alaska offers a variety of camp experiences for girls and their families. Camps are open to all girls regardless of Girl Scout membership.

At camp, your child will not only build memories that last a lifetime, but she will learn to be self-reliant, to relate to and care about others, to grow in creativity and awareness of the world around her, and to grow as an individual and member of the group.

Our 2010 camp catalog will be out in late January/early February.  Make sure to check back then for full details/dates on each of our camps. 

We look forward to seeing your child at camp this summer!

Rural Alaska Day Camp:
Girl Scout camp is the highlight of the summer for girls and communities in the Y-K Delta. A typical camp day starts mid-morning and runs through the afternoon with teen programming at night. Camp primarily takes place outdoors around the village or in the school or another community building.  
Girls love the opportunity to be creative through art projects, rediscover the tundra with nature activities, share their culture, and explore their village during a scavenger hunt.  Each village completes a service project planned by camp staff and girls.
