Lemont Day Camp is an all girl led camp. Older Girl Scouts (grade 7th thru College) run the individual units. If you are signing up as a Junior Leader - grades 7 or higher, they will be a Junior Leader, not a camper. These girls will be required to attend a Junior Leader training at the end of May or the beginning of June. They will lead the younger units with the other older girls. These girls are leading, but they are charged a small fee because we feed them everyday and they get a t-shirt. The campers are taught outdoor skills (camp progression), Girl Scout songs, crafts and how to believe in themselves. 4th - 6th grade girls are welcome to spend the night on Wednesday -weather permitting- and sleep outside in a tent. If they want to stay for swimming, hot dogs and smores, they can opt to stay until 9 pm instead of spending the night. We want every girl who is interested in our camp to be able to attend. Financial assistance is available through the Council (This form must be filled out to request financial assistance after camp registration. Approved financial assistance will be refunded to the card used to pay for camp: https://www.girlscoutsgcnwi.org/en/get-involved/join/for-families/financial-assistance.html). We hope to see your child there again this year!
