Camp Fair Exhibitor Spotlight: Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana

The Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana offer two overnight camps and one day camp, each tailored to provide unique and enriching experiences for girls aged 6-17. While sharing a core set of activities, these camps distinguish themselves through varying programs and locations. The flexibility in session length, ranging from 3 days to 2 weeks for overnight camps and 5 days for the day camp, accommodates different family schedules and preferences. Participants are immersed in themed programs focusing on a broad spectrum of interests, including sciences, arts, high adventure, backpacking, aquatics, and more. These sessions are designed to ignite curiosity, promote a love of learning, and encourage personal growth, all within a supportive community environment.

In addition to the rich, theme-based curricula, the camps provided by the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana ensure a well-rounded experience with an array of traditional camp activities. Campers have the opportunity to swim, engage in cookouts, gather around campfires, practice archery, explore boating, and much more, contributing to a memorable summer. These activities are not only enjoyable but also instrumental in fostering skills, confidence, and independence among participants. The camps stand as vibrant communities where girls are encouraged to challenge themselves, discover new interests, and enjoy the outdoors' freedom in a secure and inviting setting. This approach underscores the Girl Scouts' commitment to nurturing leadership, adventure, and camaraderie among young women.
