girl scouts

Members of our staff stay involved with the Girl Scouts, and many of our counselors and volunteers are or were Girl Scouts. This enables us to provide you with the requirements you need for your badges at camp.

“Our Girl Scout troop had a FANTASTIC time at Camp Tonkawa. The camp is beautiful and just the right size to let the girls have some freedom but keep them within range. The girls had an excellent time while learning a lot about Indian life, culture and nature in a hands-on setting." - Lisa Leslie Swift
