Event Detail


Day Camporee - "Bring a Friend"

Wednesday, June 9, 2010 - 6/10/10 & 6/11/10

Day 1: Vernon Hills Regonal Servce Center; Day 2: Busse Woods; Day 3: Journey World 770 N. Halsted, Chicago


Girl Scouts GCNWI is offering an exciting day camp opportunity to Girl Scouts and their friends!  We have designed 3 different camps, in 3 different locations, on 3 different days to introduce new (or former) Girl Scouts to our fantastic programs, AND to help existing girls satisfy Try-It, Badge, Interest Project and Journey requirements.  These camps are being offered to all registered girls as a “Bring A Friend” event.  In other words, any registered Girl Scout can attend along with an unregistered girl guest (currently in K – 11th grade).  (All guests attending camp will become registered with Girl Scouts and will be eligible to participate in Girl Scout activities over the summer, including camp, program activities, and special events.)
