GSSC Summer Camp Programs Return Summer 2022

Camp Edey Welcomes the Girl Scouts of Suffolk County to the Campgrounds for This Summer's Camp Programming

Commack, NY - The Girl Scouts of Suffolk County (GSSC) Summer Camp programs at Camp Edey are back, and the organization is excited to welcome girls to the campgrounds this summer! This year’s Summer Camp programs will run from June 27 through August 26.

"We are ecstatic to welcome our girls back to the campgrounds this summer," said Tammy Severino, GSSC’s President & CEO. "Summer Camp is a part of Girl Scouting that gives the girls the opportunity to explore and grow in a new setting. We encourage our girls to make the most of these summer programs by pushing themselves and exploring everything the programs have to offer."

Girl Scout Summer Camp helps expand girls' interests, confidence, and knowledge in the outdoors in a fun and safe space. Girls learn new skills with the backing of a global sisterhood that helps them expand their horizons while they connect with the world around them.
