Deadline to Register: March 7th, 2022


Older Girl Staff will help by running stations for the Daisies, Brownies, Juniors. Saturday morning the girls will be helping running program for the younger scouts and training parents to take over the stations for the afternoon and then they will have their own program.

Secure a spot for your troop with a $10 per person, non-refundable registration fee by Monday, March 7th, 2022 at 11:59pm to participate in a registration lottery. Space is limited and to enable as many girls as possible to attend, we must limit to Safety- Wise adult-to-girl ratios.
If your troop’s headcount decreases to a lower number after receipt of your registration, your $10.00 per person registration deposit is non-refundable and cannot be applied to the final payment (balanced owed) for others in your troop. So DO NOT put your whole troop of girls into the lottery with the intent to determine later who is actually going to go. PLEASE, we MUST have ACCURATE headcount numbers at the registration lottery.

*One attending adult from each troop MUST HAVE taken “Troop Camping Certification” in order to attend Camporee
**There is a MANDATORY MEETING for all adults attending Camporee I Butano - TBD

We are also looking for volunteers to help in our Kitchen, First Aid Station or Archery.  First Aid, Serve Safe and Archery certification needed. Any adult willing to fill our volunteer positions during Camporee weekend will have priority registration.

Proof of negative COVID test will be required for attendance and will be updated closer to the event per local guidelines.
Masks will be mandatory for everyone to wear while at camp, both inside and outside.  Sleeping and meal times will be the only time they won’t be required to be worn.


Please plan to attend the whole weekend. There will be no late arrivals or early departures.

Crossroads Facebook Closed Group
We have a "closed group" on our Facebook Page.  This is for adults who are registered Girl Scouts and are screened and cleared.  Because this is a closed group we can share more specific information about service unit events and happenings within Girl Scouts. 

If you would like to be a member of the closed group, use the link to our Facebook Home Page (click here), once there click "More" then "Groups".  From there you can request to join the group.  Once an administrator has verified your membership and volunteer clearance you will be added.

If you notice you have not been approved, be sure to check your Facebook messages.  Sometimes we need to email and follow-up with questions, as our Girl Scout and Facebook names may be different.
