Welcome to the Girl Scouts of Kansas Heartland’s first-ever Summer Program
Guide. During the council realignment process, we promised you expanded and
enhanced summer experiences throughout the state, and we are delivering on those
promises in a big way. This comprehensive guide gives details about the best camps
and programs we have to offer girls in the 80 counties that now make up the Girl
Scouts of Kansas Heartland. This summer, we invite our 16,000 Girl Scouts to do
what they do best – explore and learn. Since every program and camp on every page is open to every
Girl Scout, this is the perfect time for girls of all ages to go to a new place or try a new activity. Our goal
is to create a summer’s worth of memories and personal growth experiences that will not only fill
thousands of scrapbooks but further strengthen the bond between Girl Scouts in all parts of Kansas.
It will be an unforgettable Girl Scout summer.
Sincerely,
Shelly Chenoweth
CEO

activities centered around Girl Scouts’ three keys to leadership: Discover, Connect, with others.
Take Action.
Children can find adult friends at camp who model perseverance, listening,
teamwork and appreciation of differences. This motivates them to set new and
high standards for their own behavior. When young people feel appreciated and
valued by these friends, they are more sure of their ability to live happily away
from home.
As they “Discover,” girls:
