Girl-led Tent Camping
Join other older girls and adults for a Girl-led Tent Camping Weekend, at county and public campgrounds. Watch one-minute video, or click on QR code.
Weekends will be held on March 8-10 and 22-24, April 5-7 and 19-21, May 3-5 and 17-19. Girls can attend without adults from their troop, and adults can attend w/out girls. Several older girl troops in SUs can sign up together for a weekend. "Let's Tent” trained adults can gain more tent camping experience.
Site limit of 24 includes both girls and adults, with sufficient but minimum number of trained adults --it's meant to be a girl-led weekend! Interested? Registration at https://girl-led-tent-camping.eventbrite.com, $20 nonrefundable deposit. There's also a no-fee “we’re interested” option.
The activities, equipment, meals, and transportation are planned by the girls in two virtual/zoom meetings. The meetings will cover site, safety, requirements, meals, equipment, girl-led activities, and transportation.
Girl-led tent camping weekends were held at Dos Picos County Park on May 5-7 and at Laguna Campground on September 8-19. Costs were $30 (May) and $35 (Sept.) for campground fee, groceries, chuck boxes and campfire wood. One-minute video. Two-page summary.
