Make summer time great fun, adventurous and educational for your little girls with Girl Scouts Camp Kateri.

Into its 50th year now, this all girls camp, hosted by Girl Scouts of Gateway Council every year, is dedicated to building courage, confidence and character in girl campers through fun and thoughtful programming. This summer resident camp is open for girls aged between 6 to 17 years.

Offering a gamut of activities like archery, water sports, horseback riding, science, arts and performance among other things, Camp Navigator team has learned that each camp session is centered on a weekly theme that caters to different age groups. All the activities aim to teach new skills, create fun and forge friendships.

Ahead of the camp, the council is hosting an open house this Sunday, to be held at southeast of Gainesville, from 3 to 5 p.m. Here, interested visitors can learn about the camp sessions, interact with summer camp directors and staff, learn to make crafts, get valuable tips on packing for a camp, and tour the camp, the sleeping quarters, including treehouses, tents and cabins and the whole facility.

This Jacksonville-based council owns and operates the 550-acre camp that boasts of two lakes, hiking trails, equestrian center, archery range and other adventure activity facilities. Girls do not have to be scouts to be a part of its summer camps.

For further information on the camp or registration, you can visit their Official website for details. You can also like their Facebook page for notifications on events.
