About

Girl Scouts of West Central Florida Summer Camp includes activities such as horseback riding (“ride that horse”), climbing (“climb that wall”), target sports (“hit that target”), rowing (“row your way to victory”), swimming, and archery. Campers of similar ages are housed together and take part in activities designed for their age group, with younger campers following set schedules and older campers having more flexibility. The camp also offers a Camp Leadership Program that includes CIT 1, CIT 2, and Camp Interns.

• Ages: 6–17 years old
• Schedule: Overnight camp check-in and pick-up follow set Sunday and Saturday times by Girl Scout level at Camp Wai Lani during the summer season, and day campers can be dropped off between 8–9 a.m. and picked up between 4:30–6 p.m.
• Price: Non-members have an additional $45 fee for camp which includes a Girl Scout membership through September 2026, with an option to pay $91 for an extended membership through September 2027.

Girls entering grades 1–12 in fall 2026 can attend Girl Scouts of West Central Florida Summer Camp, and no prior Girl Scout experience is needed. Camp sessions are focused on specific ages that align with Girl Scout program levels, and campers may choose one cabin mate in the same session if both list each other. Accessibility accommodations can be provided for a range of physical, medical, developmental, dietary, behavioral, or communicative abilities, and many programs may be modified to meet specific camper needs. Campers must be able to function independently in a 6:1 girl-to-adult ratio, and campers who use wheelchairs, crutches, braces, or similar assistive technology are asked to contact camp directors so the best possible experience can be planned.

Camp staff are screened through in-depth interviews, multiple reference and background checks, and a drug screening, and camp staff salaries start at $600 per week, with meals and housing provided for most staff positions. Camp staff complete more than ten days of training, including CPR and First Aid, safety and risk management, emergency response, activity leadership and outdoor skills, and training on how to support campers’ mental health, including homesickness and bullying; staff who supervise specialized activities such as swimming and archery have additional training and qualifications. The Camp Leadership Program requires girls to apply and interview, CIT 1, CIT 2, and Intern registrations are handled manually by the Customer Care Team and cannot be completed online, and the CIT program is aligned with the Counselor-In-Training (CIT) Awards that Girl Scouts can earn and display on their uniform. The mission of Girl Scouts of West Central Florida Summer Camp follows the Girl Scouting mission that “Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place.”
