Q&A with Girl Scouts of Central Indiana:
What makes Girl Scouts of Central Indiana unique?
Summer Camp 2025 is just around the corner! We are super excited to introduce several new camp sessions and continue the tradition of camp favorites too.
And guess what? You don’t need to be a Girl Scout to attend camp!
We can’t wait for girls to go to camp and enjoy the great outdoors, go swimming, hike, ride horses, and throw a hatchet! To make new friends and learn more about themselves than they ever thought possible.
Families can go to camp too! They will spent time off the grid and around the campfire. They will be able to grab some much needed time together.
We are looking forward to sharing in all your new adventures and excited for Summer 2025. We hope you plan to join us at our beautiful camps!

What is the camper-to-counselor ratio?
The ratio varies based on day camps, overnight camps, and the age range of campers. Please contact [email protected] with questions.
How much time do the campers spend outside?
All Girl Scouts camps feature as much outdoor times as possible! Please contact [email protected] with questions.
Does the camp provide lunch/snacks or do parents need to provide them?
The meal and snack policies vary based on day camps, overnight camps, and the age range of campers. Please contact [email protected] with questions.
Camp Dellwood is excited to partner with Wayne Township for meals! Wayne Township will provide breakfast and lunch free of charge to our campers each day. If your camper chooses not to participate in the free meal program, they will need to provide their own lunch each day at camp. Please plan ahead and include your child’s lunch in an insulated lunch box if possible. They will eat their lunch with their group.
