Grades K-12: Come enjoy three days and two nights with your troop at Camp Elk River! Campers will enjoy bonding with their troop while experiencing everything Elk River has to offer, including horseback riding, archery, low ropes, boating, and more!

Troops can bring more adults than required by their program grade level ratio if desired, as long as Girl Scout Safety Activity Checkpoint guidelines and ratios are met for the troop's age level, groups may bring any youth-to-adult-ratio desired. All adults must be registered and background checked members.

During their time at camp, Girl Scouts will enjoy the following staff-led activities:

  • An opening campfire with s'mores
  • An all camp with other troops on the last morning
  • Horseback riding*
  • A choice of two staff-led activities such as: archery, low ropes/teambuilding, canoeing, kayaking, corcling, and more! (Activities will take approximately 75 minutes)

Troops should plan for approximately 3 - 4 hours of downtime for troop-led activities. Campers can hike or bike around camp, play a game in the playfield, geocache, bring something to tie-dye, or work on a badge. These activities are planned and facilitated by the troop. Camp will provide programming supplies for some activities, like geocaching, biking, or tie-dye.

Please register all members of your troop when registering.
