Encampment
2010 - 'Girl Scouts Together'
When: June 25-27 (troops may
come and go anytime between 5 p.m. on Friday and 11 a.m. on Sunday)
For: All Mahtomedi Girl
Scouts (typically K Daisy Scouts only come for the day on Saturday -- no
overnight)
What
is Encampment?
This experience is organized/run by Mahtomedi Service Unit volunteers, and
it is intended to provide troops an opportunity to get out to camp with minimal
fuss for the leaders. There are planned activities on Saturday from noon
until the evening (wide games from 12-4:30, dinner at 5, and campfire at 7
p.m.); all other activities and meals are organized by your own troop.
Troops are encouraged--but not required--to stay overnight, and you may stay
one or both nights. Leaders will need to take Council training
required for staying overnight or cooking in/outdoors with
girls ('Girls Cook In', 'Girls Cook Out', 'Girls Sleep In', or 'Girls
Sleep Out').
Cost: The cost for encampment is $18
for girls in grades 1-12 regardless of how long you stay, and it
is $13 for K Daisy Scouts (these girls do not stay overnight).
Information/registration Form
The form is designed with some fill-in-the-blank sections that you
should complete for your own troop's needs/plan. Girls may return
the registration form to the encampment committee directly, or they can get
returned to you first, and then you can turn them all in together. Either
way is fine.
