CAMP PROGRAMS  

Work at Girl Scout Camp!
It’s time to start thinking about how you want to spend YOUR summer. Why end up behind a cash register or desk when you can work, play and live in the great outdoors through the Girl Scouts of the Northwestern Great Lakes summer camps! If you have the energy and enthusiasm to make a difference in a young girl’s life, then you have found the right place!

We have eight different camps to meet your outdoor experience needs; three resident and five day camps. Camp Birch Trails, Camp Nesbit and Camp Nawakwa are located on beautiful wooded properties in Northern WI and the Upper Peninsula of MI.  If you prefer something a little less rustic spend your summer at one of our day camps:  Camp Del O’Claire, Camp Cuesta, Camp Ishnala, Camp Sacajawea or Camp Winnecomac.
