Camp Lewis Perkins - General Camp
In the heart of South Hadley, Camp Lewis Perkins offer Day Program for girls entering 1-12 grades.
Pond Study... Arts and Crafts... Canoeing and Kayaking... even Archery! At Girl Scout Day Camp, girls get the best of both worlds - a day full of fun, activities at camp, and a good night’s rest in their own bed!
Day camps run Monday through Friday* from 9:00 am - 4:30 pm. Daily schedules vary based on the weekly theme, program topics, age level, and girl interest. Below is a sample of a typical day at camp. In addition to the activities listed, campers will participate in a weekly campfire snack and an all-camp event.
For girls entering grades 4-12 who want to experience a night at camp, but aren’t ready for a full week, all of our day camps offer an optional overnight on Thursday. Girls will arrive at camp on Thursday morning and stay through Friday afternoon. A cookout dinner will be planned, as well as an evening snack. A cold breakfast and bag lunch will be provided for Friday. Additional information will be provided on the first day of your child’s camp session.
