Keyauwee Program Center is hosting a Council-wide Bridging and Family Fun Day on Saturday, June 13 in Sophia. We’ll kick off the morning with a Council-wide Bridging Ceremony, honoring girls moving up to the next age level and taking the next step in their Girl Scout journey. It’s the perfect way to celebrate accomplishments, make new memories and welcome the next year of Girl Scouting together! After a provided lunch at the dining hall, families will be able to enjoy games and camp activities led by summer camp staff and girls from our Girl Advisory Board.

Your feedback helps our council grow stronger as we work together to provide unique and meaningful leadership experiences to girls in central and western North Carolina.

We are excited to Explore More Camp! View our 2026 Summer Camp Program Guide to discover all the fun we have planned for overnight campers at Keyauwee Program Center and for day campers joining us in Black Mountain, Greensboro, Hickory and Winston-Salem.

This year, all overnight campers will get to enjoy an equestrian experience at no additional cost! Not sure about a full week away from home? Try a mini session for a short, but action-packed, overnight camp experience.

To apply Cookie Dough, Daisy Dollars or Nut Buck credits to your summer camp registration fees, please contact info@girlscoutsp2p.org.

Financial assistance is still available!
We want every Girl Scout to be able to attend camp regardless of their financial situation. Once you register for a program and pay a $50 non-refundable deposit, you will have access to our online financial aid application. Receiving financial aid is confidential. Our camp staff do not know who receives financial assistance. Last year, campers who applied for financial assistance received an average of $280 to use on registration fees.

Join us to discover the Power of Engineering in Statesville on Friday, June 12.  Get an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the Doosan Bobcat facility to see how innovation and heavy machinery come together. Participants will meet the talented team, including former Girl Scouts and troop leaders, to learn about the daily operations and high-tech processes that drive this world-class manufacturing site. After exploring the facility on a guided tour, you will experience the excitement of physics in action with a live compressed air cannon demonstration. It is a unique chance to see the technology behind the machines up close and discover the power of modern engineering.

Service unit team members are invited to join us in Statesville on May 30 for a dynamic day of connection, learning and inspiration at our Where Service Units Grow Spring Service Unit Team Retreat.
