Turn Camp Evelyn into a giant board game with this fun scavenger hunt adventure. You will combine the excitement of the Amazing Race with the challenge of solving clues and completing puzzles. Along the way, you will also learn some Camp Evelyn and Girl Scout history. At least one adult must be present with each team. Bring your walking shoes as clues will be located throughout the camp! The winning team will earn a 1-night stay in one of our camp buildings.
We welcome everyone and anyone who loves Camp Evelyn to come join us as we “spruce up” camp for the summer season. There will be projects for everyone! The morning will start with trail maintenance, deep cleaning, organizing, and putting up our platform tents. We will make sure to celebrate our service with a delicious meal and s’mores over the campfire. In the afternoon, we will continue our work, but not without a few songs and stories from fellow campers (past, present, and future!).
If your camper wants to visit camp before summer or they just can't wait for camp to start, this camp is sure to be a fabulous experience! Day campers will sample some of our classic camp activities such as hiking, boating (weather permitting), songs, and art projects. There will also be time for a guided tour and a summer camp Q and A. This is a girl-only drop-off event. Camp counselors will provide all activities and supervision. Lunch is not provided. Please pack a cold lunch.
Join us for a fun-filled day at Camp Evelyn! Meet your camp counselors and visit the unit where you will stay at camp. Participate in classic camp activities such as archery (Brownies and up), swimming in the pool (weather permitting), arts and crafts, and hiking to Crystal Lake. Take a tour through camp and get all your questions about camp answered by one of our counselors. Bring your family or your entire troop! Lunch and s'mores over the campfire will be provided.
If you feel like you or your daughter need to see camp before making the decision on what session to attend, you can schedule a tour with the Director of Program Quality. Contact Hope at hope@gsmanitou.org to schedule a tour.
We have virtual tours of Camp Evelyn and Camp Manitou available - check them out below! You can watch these tours to see what camp is like with your own eyes from the comfort of wherever you are. We always recommend getting out to camp, but a virtual tour is a great place to start.
