Camp by day, home by night. Day Camp is basic Girl Scout camping that teaches those essential skills - fire building, campsite preparation, setting up a tent, and teamwork. At Day Camp, girls begin to gain outdoor self-confidence.
Who may attend?
Any Girl Scout may attend Day Camp. Young children (3-5 years old) of day camp staff will have their own preschool unit and sons of Day Camp staff (6 years and older) will have their own unit as well.
How can we sign up?
A Day Camp/Resident Camp informational book was distributed to troop leaders in early January. Some camps will fill up very quickly-before the deadline! Be sure to send in your registration as soon as possible. If you want a registration packet, and have not received one from your troop leader, email Camping Registrar and be sure to include your mailing address.
What about volunteering at Day Camp?
All Girl Scout Eastern Oklahoma Day Camps are staffed by volunteers, which helps to keep the cost of camp to a minimum. If you are interested in volunteering, view our Volunteer Staff Application. There are a variety of positions available, including roamers, bus monitors, unit leaders, unit assistants, and program consultants. Please complete the form and send it with your daughter's Day Camp registration form.

 The safety and security of girls is paramount and it is the Council’s intention that reasonable and prudent safety and security measures be observed at all times through all aspects of the program. Its goal is for girls, parents, leaders, and other Council personnel to reach, as nearly as possible, the threshold of feeling secure while girls participate in the program; therefore, the responsibility of safety and security is shared equally by the Council, the leaders, other accompanying adults and the parents.
At Day camp, two or more security roamers patrol the perimeter of the camp, relay messages and report to headquarters periodically. The importance of the “buddy system” is stressed to the girls and unit leaders take casual head counts on a regular basis. All day camp properties are fenced with locked gates deterring access.
The Council does not advertise the exact location of any camping facility.
