Morrison Program Center
Lake Villa, IL

Our backyard mini-camp.  So close to cities and villages, yet with an outdoor camp feel.  Great for beginning camping, like a slumber party away from home.

Property Information
Located in north Lake County near Lake Villa, Illinois, the Morrison Program Center is used for troop camping, girl and adult training, and council sponsored events.  There are two lodges on site.

Opportunities available for girls and adults at Morrison Program Center allow for fun and learning.  For troop camping, groups plan their own activities while enjoying the natural surroundings.  Council sponsored events are planned programs for individuals or troops to participate with other Girl Scouts.
