About Day Camp

We will have day camps in Athens, Augusta, Savannah, Albany, Columbus, Lizella, and Warner Robins. Most day camps run from 9:00-3:00 p.m. each day daily, with after care until 5:00 p.m. for an additional fee of $25 per week. The hours of the Warner Robins day camp vary slightly, with camp running from 9:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m., with aftercare available until 4:30 p.m. If you haven’t had the chance to participate in Girl Scout programming at our council offices or camps yet, there is no time like summer time to join in on the fun! Day camp is perfect for Girl Scouts who love to explore new ideas, go on adventures, and make lasting friendships in a fun environment, but who also would like to have dinner with their families and spend the night in their own beds after an activity filled day! Important Tips to Remember • Campers should dress for an active lifestyle. • Light colored, comfortably fitting clothing is recommended. Please leave any offensive clothing or any clothing advertising alcohol or tobacco at home. • Keep forms or medication handy! They will be needed at check-in on the first day. • Leave valuables at home. Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia is not responsible for items lost or left at camp. 21
