Day Camp Intent Form

GSMW Day Camp Intent Form

What is Day Camp?
- A condensed camp experience lasting two or more consecutive days with at least three hours of programming each day.
- Girls attending must be entering Kindergarten or older and must be registered members of Girl Scouts.
- Occasionally, a Day Camp may offer an overnight experience for Brownies and older.
The information on this form will be used to allow the staff at the Girl Scout Council office to better serve Day Camp Directors.

This form is for Troop, Service Unit and Volunteer-run camps. GSMW will use the information you provide for emergency purposes.

Will you offer financial assistance? Please explain.*
Will there be tag-a-longs at this camp?*

Yes, I will read and click the agree checkbox for the policy provided belowNo
A tag-a-long is anyone that is not registered in the day camp that is “tagging along”. If day camp volunteers bring children that are not Girl Scouts to day camp, the day camp director must provide a tag-a-long unit. The day camp director must budget for and purchase additional insurance for the entire camp and the number of tag-a-longs. Safety and supervision of girls at day camp is of the utmost importance and volunteers need to ensure their full attention is given to the registered Girl Scouts. The tag unit must have its own staff who will provide activities and meals for the tag-a-longs. The tag unit will eat and engage in activities in separate areas away from the Girl Scout activities. Day camp directors are responsible for adjusting the day camp budget to accommodate for tag-a-longs. GSMW recommends that boys over the age of eight are not allowed as tag-a-longs.

I have read and agree to the above tag-a-long policy above.
