Camping is a favorite activity and
tradition in Girl Scouts. It is important that an adult has the skills

either in a lodge or tent.
You will learn how to involve girls in the planning process, preparation
of personal and troop equipment, basic outdoor skill development,
outdoor cooking, safety procedures, ecology, night time activities,
ceremonies, and camp fire program activities.
Camping Certification Training is a required by at least one adult
camping with a troop or group of girls.
AUDIENCE
