Camper Readiness Quiz
Curious about which of our camps is right for you? In our Summer Camp Guide, you can take the readiness quiz with a parent/caregiver to help you choose. After you answer each question, tally up your score and compare that score to our recommendations. Remember, you and your caregiver know your comfort level best!
At our camps, campers build independence, self-confidence, and leadership skills.
However, participants can only reap these benefits if they are emotionally prepared for overnight camps. Prepare your girl by getting her outside regularly, having her stay at a relative’s home, or having her try a sleepover or backyard campout at a friend’s house. If she's not ready for a full week, have her try one of our short week camps.
Camper Not Ready for Solo Camping? No worries! If your camper isn’t ready to come to camp for a solo week, GSMW offers weekend camps that you can attend with a troop leader, mother, or other trusted adult. Check out these camps: GO, Troop, Long Weekend or Family.

UPDATES
|
Our partners at Madison River, who we typically go tubing with, have told us that the low snowfall this winter has resulted in a low flow year for the river. They have informed us they will not be able to open until June 13th . Unfortunately, this means our Extreme Exploration camp the first week of Castle Rock, June 7-12th, will not be able to go tubing. We are working on finding an alternative activity and appreciate your understanding with these extenuating circumstances. |
