If you have not received a copy, please download to your computer by clicking here for Resident camp and click here for day camp. Detailed information about policies, refunds, payments, etc., can be found in the brochure.

Please note:
• Pre registration is required for all camp programs. If you are registering for more than one program, you will need to complete the online registration process for each one separately.
After you are finished your first registration, simply click on Step 1 to be taken back to the calendar page.

If you are expecting to use Cookie Dough, and wish to pay in full, subtract the estimated amount of Cookie Dough from the total. Once you receive your Cookie Dough certificate, it can be mailed in with final payment by June 1. Online credit card payments are processed via a secure web site using Verisign.
NEW! Change requests to move girls between programs will be accepted after March 11th. Earlier calls slow the registration process. There will be a $10 rebooking fee for changing programs once a girl’s registration has been processed. This fee does not apply if the council has to move campers, if a program is cancelled, or if a camper moves from a wait list to the program of her choice.

Registration is ongoing until programs are full. Online registration will close two days before a program's start date.

Camp Program Updates

  • Buddy Up - this program for day camp girls in grades 8-10 begins with a training weekend in May. Girls interested in this program should sign up for the May training online. After the training weekend, staff from each day camp will evaluate if you are ready to be a Day Camp Buddy Up.
  • Camp 'N More - if you would like to add Camp 'n More to your registration for day camps Kettleford, Machagamee and Seawood, you need to complete a separate registration for each. You will find them in the online calendar listed with each camp and session.
  • Buses - the online registration screen does not have an option to indicate which bus you will be using for Day Camp transportation. You will receive information about bus registration in your camp packet in the spring.
  • Non-Girl Scouts - If the girl registering for camp is not registered for the 2008 Girl Scout year, then check off non-Girl Scout on the online form. You will automatically be billed an extra $10 and registered as a Girl Scout.
  • In-Between - To sign up for the in-between sessions at Camp Chenoa and Camp Farnsworth, please complete a separate registration. You will find each session listed in the online calendar.
  • Tall & Small/Just the Two of Us/Family Weekends - at this time, we are unable to register these programs with the online system. Please print out a paper registration form and mail to GSSWC. (PO Box 10832, Bedford, NH 03110-0832)

• You need to have pop-up blockers disabled for this site to work properly. Additional system requirements and suggestions for your computer may be found here .

• Once your registration has been submitted you will see a pop-up window that tells you “Your registration has been received”. This means that your registration has been submitted; it does not mean you are automatically confirmed for the camp program. A confirmation will be sent immediately once minimum numbers are met. In most cases, you should receive your confirmation within 3 days of registration. Additional materials will be sent prior to camp regarding directions, packing lists, and detailed camp information. If you do not see the pop-up screen, your registration may not have been submitted. Please try to submit your registration again.
