Girls & Guitars
Grades: 5-8
Location: Camp Scherman
Accommodations: Ranch House Cabins
Unlock the magic of music as you embark on a journey to learn the guitar and become the ultimate campfire maestro! Dive into the world of melodies, chords, and rhythm, and soon you'll be strumming along to all your favorite tunes. When you’re not playing the guitar, immerse yourself in all that camp has to offer–paddling across the lake, climbing the Tower of Power, taking aim at archery, and so much more. While bringing your own guitar is music to our ears, it's not a prerequisite–enthusiasm and a thirst for musical adventure are all you need!
*If you have a guitar, you are encouraged to bring it, but it is not required.
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.
