Get outdoors with GSSEF
Camp Welaka, Camp Nocatee, and Camp Telogia have served tens of thousands of Girl Scouts for more than 75 years. Girl Scout Camp is where so many girls have found a second home, a place where they feel safe to explore, to lead, to try something new, and to discover who they are becoming. She might find independence as she navigates a first sleep away from home, explore a newfound love of nature on a hike, or make lifelong friendships around a campfire.
CAMPaign Immokalee is a promise to generations of future Girl Scouts. The name Immokalee comes from a Seminole word meaning “my home,” a powerful reminder of the deep sense of belonging one feels when they are in a place where they feel like they belong. Through improved cabins, modern program spaces, accessible trails, and safe gathering areas, this campaign will ensure that every girl who arrives at camp finds a welcoming, inspiring, and high-quality environment where she can grow. Your support will create spaces where girls build leadership skills, strengthen resilience, explore S.T.E.M. and the outdoors, and experience the belonging that defines Girl Scouts.

Camp Telogia
Camp Telogia is a 9.5-acre Girl Scout camp located on the north side of Holmberg Road, just west of SR 441, in Parkland. Camp Telogia had been in operation since 1961, when Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida took ownership of the land through a gift from Broward County, until 2017. Previous plans to permanently abandon the property were suspended in 2018, and in 2019 a three-phase restoration and revitalization plan was adopted. Once reopened, Camp Telogia will be used for daytime and evening activities and will be the perfect place for the progressive program outdoor experiences to begin.
