Campers sleep in platform tents (wooden floors, cots, and mosquito netting), bringing the outdoors within reach. Campers have a sense of independence with the security of counselors living in an adjacent tent. Campers will make new friends in their groups, made up of similarly aged campers. These camper groups will attend daily activities and meals together. Special care is taken to ensure that each camper has the chance to learn and grow with challenging activities, along with basic skill-based instruction.</p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>Campers going into 1st-5th grade will be able to participate in day camp with the option to have one night of overnight camp at the end of the week.  Campers 2nd-12th grade stay overnight at camp for 5 nights, 6 days, participating in themed sessions, intro to wilderness for younger campers, wilderness trips for middle school and high schoolers, and leadership programs for high schoolers. </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Your Role at Camp Togowoods</span></span></p>\n<p>At camp, we create a community that helps girls unlock their potential while developing life skills.

These activities will include STEM, arts and crafts, outdoor skills, environmental education, boating (kayaking and canoeing), and more. You will receive training in creating and leading age-appropriate activities that foster character growth and are fun and engaging. You will supervise all aspects of the campers' day, including waking up, activities, meals, rest time, evening activities, getting ready for bed, and overnight. </p>\n<p> </p>\n<p>At the conclusion of the Camp Togowoods season, Girl Scouts of Alaska will also operate an overnight camp session in Juneau.
