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.
To lock in the current camp pricing, all you need is a $50 non-refundable deposit at the time of registration. This deposit secures your camper's spot and locks in the price on the day you register-so the earlier you sign up, the more you save!
Your remaining balance will be due 4 weeks before your camp session begins, giving you plenty of time to plan.
Register early to get the best rate and guarantee your camper's place!

Levels-IMPORTANT!
Be sure to register your camper for the Girl Scout level they will be in the fall of 2026, 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.

Financial Aid for Camp
Girl Scouts in the Heart of Pennsylvania 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 if approved for
financial aid.
The form to request financial aid for camp must
be requested by emailing memberservices@gshpa.org. This form must be
completed within 4 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.
Are you registering your girl scout(s) for 2 or more sessions? STOP! If a girl signs up for more than one session she gets $50 off of each additional session. Click here to request the discount code.
