Join Us for a Weekend of Learning, Laughter, and Connection!
Whether you're a brand-new leader, a returning volunteer, or a longtime supporter, this weekend is designed just for you. Learn new skills, gain fresh ideas, and enjoy the company of passionate Girl Scout adults-all in the beautiful setting of Camp Martha Johnston.
You'll stay in our Sleeping Quarters, a comfortable, dorm-style, air-conditioned building with shared bathrooms and showers. Once those beds are full, we'll assign spots in the Explorer Unit, which features cozy air-conditioned cabins, community bathrooms, and a nearby shower house.
Accommodations are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure to register early!
We can't wait to see you there! 💚
