Camp Connection Virtual Camp
Like so many other aspects of our 2019-2020 programming, COVID-19 required us to pivot our summer camps in order to still provide our girls with a program where they could develop their leadership skills, build self-esteem, and explore topics such as art, the outdoors, healthy living, and STEM in a supportive all-girl environment, while staying safe.
More than 300 girls participated in our Camp Connection Virtual Camp during which girls interacted with camp counselors virtually, earned badges, and enjoyed team-building activities, games, arts & crafts, story time, yoga, and more! Each weekly session was designed for Girl Scout Daisies through Cadettes and encouraged girls to make new friends and participate in 100% live interactive activities with camp staff via Zoom from the safety of their own homes.
The Great New Jersey Camp In/Camp Out
From Friday June 12 through Sunday June 14, girls and their families from across the state got a taste of Girl Scout Camp at home and in their own backyards with the “Great New Jersey Camp-In Camp-Out.” Families camped out, or in, at home for a weekend that was full of a variety of staff-led activities and adventures they could explore together including camp songs, scavenger hunts, stargazing, and fire building. Girls learned essential camping skills while having fun with virtual and offline activities and spending time with their families and meeting new Girl Scout sisters from across New Jersey.
