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).

 

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)

 

REBATE INFORMATION (2024)

 

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

 

NEW THIS YEAR: 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.

 

NEW THIS YEAR: 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 either be sent through CampDoc (to the original method of payment for the camper/PAT), or paid by check and mailed to the volunteer within 4 weeks of the end of camp. Please make sure to fill out your rebate request form clearly and completely so that rebates get to you 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 2025 and beyond.
