About Camp
Welcome to the wonderful world of Girl Scout camp! Our camps are open to ALL girls, regardless of whether they are current Girl Scout members. Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. Girl Scout camp programs are designed to help girls discover the world around them, connect with other campers, and take action in their own lives and communities. That’s what leadership is all about!
Girl Scout Day Camp is a wonderful way to experience all the fun of camp and still return home each evening! With guidance from professional leadership and quality staff, the day camp is a great place for girls to stretch their limits and widen their horizons. Camper groups are typically made up of 15 campers and two counselors. Girls are grouped by age and will likely have multiple grade levels in each group.
Day camps are held at Camp Singing Hills in Chugiak, Camp Togowoods in Wasilla, and in Juneau.
At overnight camp, every day is a chance to do something different, meet new people, and challenge yourself. With professional leadership, high-quality staff, and small camper groups with a high counselor-to-camper ratio, overnight camp will feel like a home away from home. Camper groups typically consist of 8-12 girls and two counselors. Camper groups attend daily activities together. Special care is taken to ensure each camper has challenging opportunities alongside basic skill instruction. Girl Scouts of Alaska's overnight camp is at Camp Togowoods in Wasilla. Girl Scouts of Alaska will also be hosting a week of overnight camp in Juneau for girls in Southeast Alaska.
Girls from across Alaska attend Camp Togowoods every summer. Camp Togowoods is located on more than 400 beautiful acres along the shores of Three Mile Lake near Wasilla. Girl Scouts of Alaska owns the property. It encompasses five ecosystems to explore, including our wetlands boardwalk. All Camp Togowoods campers enjoy arts and crafts, nature hikes, environmental education, swimming, canoeing or kayaking, and outdoor cooking. Campers sleep in platform tents (wooden floors, cots, and mosquito netting), bringing the outdoors within reach. Campers have a sense of independence with the security of counselors living in an adjacent tent.
