Review the Service Unit Day Camp Manual and Safety Activity Checkpoints for any activities your camp might like to offer.

Volunteer-Led Day Camps
Want to have amazing days at camp but sleep in your own bed? Day
camps are planned and run by our incredible Girl Scout volunteers. You
can find out more about planning and hosting your own day camp using
the resources below. Share this with other local volunteers and build
your own day camp planning committee. It's a great way to keep girls
and volunteers in your area engaged over the summer.
All-day camp registrations are processed through the individual day
camps rather than the Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania registration
process. Some day camps have online registration available. Others use
paper registration forms that need to be completed and sent to their
specific day camp director or registrar according to the instructions
on the flyer or registration form. Please note that since day camp
registrations are handled by each day camp volunteer team, receipts
and listings will not be available in your MyGS account.
Want to know about day camps that may be happening in your area?
Check with your service unit manager or email customercare@gswpa.org with
the subject line Day Camps and we'll put you in touch with any local
day camp directors.
