About Us

 

Girl Scout Howard County Day Camp (GSHCDC) is a volunteer-run camp that operates each Summer. During camp, girls will enjoy theme-centered activities such as crafts, STEM, games, dance, songs, archery (3rd grade and up), and much more!

 

Our campers are registered Girl Scouts in grades 1-6 (as of Sept. 2025). For girls in grades 7-12, we offer training and support to become Program Aidestrusted youth volunteers who assist our staff and other adult volunteers in leading the younger campers.
