Theater in the Woods
Grades: 7-12
Location: Camp Scherman
Accommodations: Lower Camp Cabins
Get ready for Theater in the Woods, a 12-day immersive experience where the forest transforms into your own creative playground. Over nearly two weeks, you’ll dive into acting, improvisation, scene-building, and collaborative storytelling, taking your theatrical skills to the next level. Alongside your theater experiences, enjoy classic camp activities like canoeing, swimming, climbing, and nature exploration, creating a perfect balance of performance and outdoor fun. Collaborate with fellow campers to overcome creative challenges, explore bold ideas, and bring original productions to life.
Your camper will have the opportunity to work on earning parts of various badges and may even complete some badges entirely through engaging and fun activities. They'll come home with a detailed sheet outlining the badge requirements they worked on, allowing them to see their progress and continue working toward their goals.
At Girl Scouts, we believe every child should have the chance to experience camp-no matter their financial situation. Camp Scherman uses flexible, membership-style pricing system with three tiers so families can choose the option that best fits their needs.
- GSOC Girl Scouts may select Tier 1, our most subsidized rate, or Tier 3, which reflects the true cost of operating summer sleepaway camp.
- Visiting Girl Scouts from other councils may choose Tier 2, a subsidized rate for non-GSOC members, or Tier 3.
Families are encouraged to choose the tier that aligns with their membership type and financial comfort. All selections are completely confidential and do not affect the camp experience in any way. No matter which tier you choose, every camper receives the same high-quality, memorable Camp Scherman experience.
