Camp is located in Douglas, near Blue Star and Center Street, in the same building as our friends at Edward Jones. Girls will enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities, utilizing our spacious group room, grassy picnic area, and the library right in our backyard! We may also take walks into Douglas or head to Beery Field, but drop-off and pick-up will always be at our office. Get ready for a summer full of fun, adventure, and discovery!
