​​A Little Bit About Us:

Picture
What began as a retreat for Maine Girl Scout leaders over 35 years ago has evolved into an adventure open to all women, 18 years of age and older.

It was in 1996 that our Board of Advisers was formed and at that point, Women's Camp officially came into its own. Today, women from all over New England and beyond, including those who have never been Girl Scouts, enjoy the Women's Camp experience.

The Board of Advisers, women from all walks of life each having their own set of unique experiences and talents, share the responsibility of organizing events and planning activities.

Women’s Camp is financially independent of any organization and is not a branch of the Girl Scouts. We do however host most of our events at Girl Scout properties.


​Camperships :

​From time to time, we may all come to a point when we just need a little help. The Eunice Anderson Campership Fund was put in place to provide funding for any woman in need of financial assistance to attend camp. A campership will provide either partial or complete assistance depending on an individual's ability to pay.

Funding for the Eunice Anderson Campership Fund comes from the proceeds of live and 'silent' auctions held at camp. Auction Items are donated by campers for the sole purpose of keeping the campership fund healthy and available to anyone in need.

If you need assistance or know of a woman in need of assistance, please print and complete the campership application and forward it to the address at the bottom of the form. Click here to view and print the application. For questions, please use the contact form on our Home page. All inquiries and applications are kept strictly confidential.


​Benefit Auction:

The Eunice Anderson Campership Fund provides financial assistance to women who wish to attend Women's Camp but who cannot afford the entire fee. At most Women's Camp events there are live and 'silent' auctions where the proceeds go directly to this fund. Items to be auctioned are donated by campers. Participation is voluntary and no donation is too big or too small. The auctions are always a lot of fun and a great opportunity to clean out that closet or basement. Hand-made items are also appreciated


​Camp Kapers :

We have no maids, housekeepers or custodians at camp. This allows us to keep camp fees affordable. So, it is up to all of us to pitch in and help.  All campers are asked to volunteer to complete specific tasks or "kapers". Kapers may include sweeping, setting tables, helping with meal prep, cleaning bathrooms, putting up the flag, keeping tissue in the bathrooms, etc. It is our hope that jobs done by a lot of people are done more quickly!


​W​e always try to give a little back:

At most events there will be an opportunity to volunteer as we try to leave the camp a little better than we find it. It could be washing windows, planting shrubs and trees, painting or fixing whatever needs repair. There is no obligation to participate. Any amount of help is greatly appreciated.


​Dietary and Other Special Needs:

If you have a dietary, health or physical needs please fill out the contact form on our Home page or send the information with your registration form. We will do whatever we can to accommodate you. We ask that you kindly give us ample time to try and meet your needs. Please do not wait until your arrival to inform us of special needs as we will not be able meet them at the last minute. Most of the camps we use are handicapped accessible. On occasion, we do encounter limited access facilities. However, we have found that with a little creativity and a can-do spirit, most obstacles can be overcome.


​Girl Scout Registration:

Women's Camp participants are requested to register as an adult girl scout which costs $25 per year. Women's Camp gets a discount on campsite rentals, from the various G.S. Councils in New England as an organization made-up of adult girl scouts. Therefore we ask campers to register as adult girl scouts. FYI G.S. Membership runs from Oct 1 to Sept 30.

If you are not currently a registered adult Girl Scout, you can opt to add $25 to your total camp registration fee. G.S. registration forms will be provided at check-in and your registration will be with the Girl Scouts of Maine. Note: This does not obligate you to the Girl Scouts in any way.


​Insurance Requirements:

All campers are required to add $10 to each camp registration to cover camp insurance. Whether you stay one night, two nights, or five nights, please add one payment of $10 to your registration fee. 

​Guests:

Guests are welcome at Women's Camp as long as they are female,18 or older, and arrangements have been made in advance. We ask for a donation of $10 per meal, should meals be attended. Overnight stays require full registration.​

You are solely responsible for the care and feeding of your service animal. Service animals are not covered by the Girl Scout insurance policy.
