Choosing Summer Camp Adventures and Grizzly Bear Names
We have been loving the chance to Choose Your Own Adventure with campers this summer! We are also asking our overnight campers to help us name this year’s Fall Product mascot, the Grizzly Bear. Each week, campers are submitting their preliminary votes and all council members will help vote on the final name when the Fall Product program kicks off in September! Information on the Fall Product program and the rewards you can earn will be coming soon.
If you haven’t registered for summer camp yet, or want to learn more about our Multi-Week Discount, there is still time to join us! Check out our day, overnight and horse camp programs and register up to two weeks before the session start date. Camp is a place for all girls to feel welcome and grow through the Girl Scout Leadership Experience and girls rising grades 1-12 can explore summer camp programs, including your friends that aren’t currently Girl Scouts!

These rewards are just the beginning! In addition to these national rewards, more localized council awards will be added- plus, Girl Scouts in our council can earn Cookie Dough and Daisy Dollars.
