Sleepaway Camp
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 are generally made up of 8-12 girls and two counselors. Camper groups attend daily activities together. Special care is taken to ensure that each camper is given challenging opportunities along with basic skill-based instruction. Girl Scouts of Alaska overnight camp is at Camp Togowoods in Wasilla.
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.
