Troop Camp Certification

The intention of Troop Camp Certification is to provide volunteers with the information necessary to prepare and guide girls in fun and safe outdoor adventures. When completing your Troop Camp Certifications, please plan ahead and allow sufficient time to complete the recommended preparation activities with girls.

Approximate time needed to prepare girls:

  • Level 1 (beginning experiences) 1-2 months
  • Level 2 (intermediate experiences) 3-6 months
