It's Camping Season!

Camping is a great way to build new skills, get a sense of community, and develop a deep appreciation for nature. Whether you go for a day, a week or longer, Girl Scout camping gives you an opportunity to grow, explore, and have fun—always under the guidance of caring, trained adults. Every girl should have a chance to camp!

 

 

 

 

Outdoor Cooking

There is nothing like an open campfire to bring the girls together for a great campout experience. Dining under the stars is always one of the most memorable experiences when camping with the Girl Scouts. And don't forget the marshmallows! Check out some great camping recipes at Scouting Web.

 

 

 

Campfire Songs

Singing by the campfire is a time honored tradition. Kookaburra is one of the favorites of every campout.

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Merry, merry king of the bush is he
Laugh, Kookaburra! Laugh, Kookaburra!
Gay your life must be

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Eating all the gum drops he can see
Stop, Kookaburra! Stop, Kookaburra!
Leave some there for me

Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree
Counting all the monkeys he can see
Stop, Kookaburra! Stop, Kookaburra!
That's not a monkey that's me

Kookaburra sits on a rusty nail
Gets a boo-boo in his tail
Cry, Kookaburra! Cry, kookaburra!
Oh how life can be
