Get ready for an exciting adventure in the first level of CIT training! This program is designed for Girl Scouts entering 11th or 12th grade who are eager to develop the leadership and outdoor skills needed to be an amazing camp counselor. You'll work together with others to explore what makes a great leader and dive into fun, challenging group games that push you to think, grow, and lead with confidence. Throughout the training you'll challenge yourself, discover your unique leadership qualities, and learn how to inspire others. You'll also pick up valuable tips for working with younger campers and improving your overall leadership abilities. And don't worry - there will still be plenty of time to enjoy traditional camp activities such as swimming, outdoor cooking, and arts & crafts! Campers will earn the CIT I pin. An interview is required for admittance into this program.
Levels-IMPORTANT!
Be sure to register your camper for the Girl Scout level they will be in the fall of 2025, not what level they are at the time of registration.
Upon Completion of your Summer Camp Registration, you will be required to fill out Camp Information Forms. You will receive these in an email one week after you complete your registration. These forms must be completed four weeks before your camp session or your registration will be subject to cancelation with no refund.
Please Note: You must have a current Girl Scout Membership to participate in GSHPA Summer Camps. Don't have your membership yet? Click HERE to become a member, then return to this page to sign up for CAMP!
Financial Aid for Camp
GSHPA is committed to making sure that camp is accessible to all of our Girl Scouts. Families requesting financial assistance who would like to bypass the non-refundable $50 deposit must call into Member Services at 717-233-1656 to register. If you are comfortable paying the $50 non-refundable deposit, you may proceed with registering through myGS. Please note if you decide to pay the deposit without calling in and are approved for financial assistance, the $50 deposit will not be refunded, but the remaining balance will be covered. The form to request financial aid for camp will be emailed to you, the week after you register through GS events. This form must be completed within 2 weeks of your GS event registration, or her slot will be forfeited and opened to other campers. If approved, financial aid covers the entire balance. Be aware that financial assistance is a finite resource. For more information on financial aid qualification and availability, please contact memberservices@gshpa.org or 717-233-1656.
