[Virtual] Girl Scout Camp - Junior Disaster and Rescue Camp / Earn a Journey Award and a Badge!
Join us on an exciting, fully interactive, and completely
hands-on virtual camp adventure where we will be building strong structures and
earthquake-safe buildings. And as Girl
Scouts always do, we’ll jump in to see how we can help others! Build your own
Emergency pet shelter and put on your inventor hat to create a new product to
assist people caught in natural disasters.
We will also learn about a few disasters in our country’s history
through camp songs and active games. But
that’s not where the fun ends!
Camp includes:

5 Days, Mon - Fri, with 2 1/2 Hours each day, jammed packed with hands-on,

mind-set, social-emotional skills, and to get the body up & moving!

General Information:
- Our
goal is for the girls to be independent during the camp hours, with
limited help from parents. If possible, help your daughter find a
comfortable place to spend her time, with room to work and their bag of supplies.
- Girl Scout
Camps are focused on one Girl Scout level. If this is your daughter’s
bridging summer, register her for either the level she is bridging from or
bridging to but not both over the same summer.
- If you have more than one Girl Scout in the
same girl level, siblings receive a 50% discount for the class. Register
the additional sister(s) by paying only the deposit. The discount will be applied and then
you will be able to pay the balance.
SUPPLIES:
- Each camper
will receive a Camp Survival Bag filled with supplies labeled for each day
of camp. The
bag of supplies will include everything they need except scissors, markers/crayons,
& tape.
- The
supply bags are picked up in Traverse City on Friday or Sunday (location and times will be communicated). If you do not have a TC zip code, we will work with you to make other arrangements.
- Zoom
Links will be sent out the day before camp starts.
