Benefits

Staff benefits include guaranteed placement of your camper(s), a free camp t-shirt and camp patch, and an on-site program for younger siblings (girls and boys ages 3-6 [who are toilet trained] and boys ages 6-11). Adult volunteers can also order lunch, at a reasonable cost, on camp days.

CAMPER PLACEMENT

Acceptance as camp staff guarantees placement for your camper(s)/PAT(s) for the camp week for which you volunteer.

TAGALONGS (TAGS) AND BOYS UNIT

Do you want to volunteer at camp but don't have child care for your younger kids? Don't fret! Toilet-trained children (ages 3-6) and young sons (ages 6-11) can come with you to camp! (See: TAGS and Boys)

LUNCH ORDER OPTION

Adult volunteers can order lunch on camp days, at a reasonable cost, using our Lunch Order Form. Meals will be prepared on-site by camp kitchen staff and PAs, and available for pick-up at lunchtime.

Orders and pre-payments must be submitted first thing in the morning, when signing in at the HQ Outpost, using the forms and envelopes available there. 

Pre-payments (to cover multiple days) are encouraged, with any unused funds returned to the volunteer at the end of the week. But you can also pay for a day at a time. All payments must be made by cash or personal check.

**Below is last year's lunch order form. The 2025 form will be posted closer to camp.**

REBATE INFORMATION

All volunteers who work at least 3 days during camp are eligible to receive a rebate once camp ends.

In order to receive a rebate, volunteers must fill out an online rebate request form on or before Camp Clean-up Day of the week they volunteered. You must fill out this form to receive a rebate. You cannot request a rebate via e-mail; you must fill out the rebate request form for accounting purposes.

Rebates will be calculated as follows:

1. Volunteers who work all 5 days of camp are eligible to receive a 50% tuition rebate for their campers (grades 1-6 and PAT). 
2. Volunteers who work fewer than 5 days will have there rebates prorated. They are eligible for a 40% rebate for 4 days of work, and a 30% rebate for 3 days of work.
3. Only tuition paid for Girl Scout campers and PATs is eligible for a rebate. Tuition paid for Boys, Tags, and PAs is NOT eligible. 
4. $20 is deducted for every training missed by the volunteer, so make sure to always sign in (online or in person).

Rebates will be sent through CampDoc (to the original method of payment for the camper/PAT). Please make sure to fill out your rebate request form clearly and completely, and to have your payment method saved (on file) in CampDoc. This allows us to send your rebate in a timely manner.

Alternately, adult volunteers may skip the rebate and keep the money with GSHCDC. These funds are appreciated and help support camp operations for 2026 and beyond.
