Event Details:

All adults attending the campout must be registered and background checked per GSCTX guidelines.

Cabins will be assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis while also accommodating as many Girl Scouts as possible. 

Tent pads, screened tents, and primitive camping are available if your troop would prefer those options.

Dads and male leaders are welcome!

Tag-alongs will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. 

Solo campers and their adults are encouraged to register. We will make every effort to connect them with a troop for the weekend.

Troops who want to visit for the day on Saturday only should also register. 

Troops will provide their own food for Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday lunch, and Sunday morning. 

LCSU will host a cookout for the whole group Saturday evening including hot dogs and s’mores. Troops will be invited to signup to contribute to the feast as we get closer to the event. 

Each troop is responsible for having a first aid certified volunteer; a saftey-wise ratio of adults to girls; any other trainings or requirements from GSCTX (ex. Let’s Go 1, 2, & 3); and an approved Activity and Travel Application. ATA’s should be submitted at least 3 weeks in advance to ensure that they are approved in time.

Adult volunteers who are driving girls other than their own scouts must fill out the Volunteer Driver form. It is a requirement of the ATA, so it is recommended that you complete these at least 4 weeks in advance and/or before the ATA.
