Discovery Day Camp
DISCOVERY DAY
CAMP is the only place to be for girls ages 6-11 (grades
1-6) this summer! Day Camp
is offered for six weeks throughout the months of June and
July and is the only all-girl day camp in the area.
Our day camp is held at Mamie Towles Elementary School in
Reno, Nevada. Each
week is centered on a fun and exciting theme - we'll be
cooking, dancing, acting, singing and putting all our
creativity into action. Each week girls will have the
opportunity to try new things, make new friends, earn Girl
Scout badges and Try-Its, and most of all, we'll be
having lots of fun! From arts and crafts to field trips,
games, songs and swimming, you definitely don't want to miss
out all the adventures this summer!
Any girl can
participate in Discovery Day Camp, even if they are not a
Girl Scout.
