Transcript of Girl Scouts! Your Legacy Starts Here
When a girl becomes a Girl Scout she embarks on a journey that is a commitment to herself, her community, her world, and her fellow Girl Scouts—her sisters. Here at Frost Valley YMCA, we want to help your troop pave the way for a multi-faceted journey rich with leadership, personal growth, and the formation of strong, lifelong bonds. Our eight core values—Caring, Community, Diversity, Honesty, Inclusiveness, Respect, Responsibility, and Stewardship—are the foundation of the comprehensive programming we offer Girl Scout troops so they may continue to build girls of courage, confidence, and character.
Our Main Camp offers availability for up to 650 guests, easily accommodating large councils yet also providing a personalized experience for individual troops. Rates for the weekend start at $134 per person and include programs, lodging, and meals.
East Valley Ranch, just 12 miles from Main Camp, offers both a bed-and-breakfast style lodge that sleeps up to 35 guests, as well as Mongolian yurts that sleep an additional 60 guests. This secluded location allows for programs tailored specifically for your troop’s needs and goals. East Valley ranch offers a more private and personalized experience, and weekend rates start at $174 per person, varying with lodging and the addition of horse programming. All meals are included, and served in our lodge’s charming dining room.
We also offer Boy and Cub Scout programs - please contact us for more information.
