Summer Camp | Girl Scouts

Every girl deserves the chance to camp!

Take a deep breath. Catch the scent of pine cones mixed with roasting marshmallows, and you are ready for your summer camp adventure.

There are leaves to rustle through, water to plunge into and trails to explore. There are campfire stories that make you laugh and shiver, like the night air causing you to snuggle deeper into the warmth of your sleeping bag . . . drifting off to dream of the fun you'll have tomorrow.

At summer camp, you can come for the day, for three, five, or even 12 nights. You can bring a buddy or come on your own, but in no time you will know all the girls in your camping unit just like your friends back home. That is just the "nature" of summer camp – friends made summer after summer often become your friends for life. You might even come to camp with your whole troop or with your favorite adult!

Summer camp is open to all girls entering grades K-12. Not a Girl Scout? Simply add $50 to the camp fee to become a member, and join in the fun! This is completed at the same time you register for a camp session.

Bring your friends and show them how to have a blast this summer!

Summer Camp 2026

Bring a Friend! Get a Discount

Current Manitou Girl Scouts will invite their family and friends who have never attended a Camp Evelyn or Camp Manitou overnight camp before to attend one of our overnight camp sessions for summer 2026. Once both the current Girl Scout and friend are registered for an overnight, they'll earn a discount! Read on for the full description, logistics, and rules.

How It Works:

Refer a Camper: Share the excitement of camp with your friends, family, and neighbors who have not been to Camp Evelyn or Camp Manitou for an overnight session. Don't forget that you don't need to be a Girl Scout to come to summer camp!
Registration: When your referral registers for an overnight camp session, they should enter your camper's first and last name in CampDoc in the referral section. Please note: You can only enter one camper's name in the referral section on CampDoc.
Receive a credit: Your camper AND their friend will earn a $25 bonus added to their camp account within the CampDoc system. This credit can be applied to a current/new balance or be transferred to use at the camp store. Please allow up to one week for the referral to appear on the CampDoc accounts.

Rules:

If you've previously attended a Camp Evelyn or Camp Manitou overnight session, you can participate in our referral program and invite a new friend to camp.
The referred friend must register for an overnight session and it must be their first time registering for an overnight session. They are still eligible if they attended only day camp sessions in the past.
Siblings are eligible for the Refer a Friend promotion only if they have not previously attended an overnight camp session.
A referring camper will receive one $25 credit, regardless of the number of new campers they refer. Each new camper referred will still receive their own $25 credit.
You can only enter one camper's name in the referral section on CampDoc.
The referral program will run now through August 10, 2026. Any referrals after the 10th of August will not count for the $25 credit.
The referral does not need to be a current Girl Scout. All girls are welcome to attend summer camp.
