Welcome to
Girl Scout Howard County Day Camp
at Camp Ilchester
GSHCDC is located in Ellicott City, across from Ilchester Elementary and in the same location as the GSCM Clementine's Corner store. We are a completely volunteer-run day camp.
Come enjoy traditional camp activities with our own Ilchester Girl Scout spin to it! With exploration, adventure, and laughter galore, your daughter is sure to have a blast with us!
GSHCDC SUMMER 2022
GSHCDC is excited to offer one week of day camp this Summer! Please mark your calendars and save the dates. We're headed back to camp!
"Journey to the Enchanted Forest"

UPDATE! PA, camper, and adult registrations are still open! To register, please use CampDoc.
We also need additional SWAT volunteers. To learn more and to register, please visit the SWAT Information page.
