Camp Welaka
For over seven decades, Camp Welaka has been a sanctuary of growth, adventure, and leadership for countless Girl Scouts in Southeast Florida. Nestled within 640 acres of pristine wilderness, this cherished camp has stood as a testament to the enduring spirit of the Girl Scout movement. However, as we look to the future, we recognize the need to preserve and enhance this legacy for generations to come.
Today, we invite you to join us in a transformative journey – one that will not only renovate Camp Welaka but also invest in the future of young women who will shape our world.
Key Enhancements
Since its inception, Camp Welaka has weathered storms both literal and figurative. The passage of time and the forces of nature have taken their toll on this beloved camp. Now, we stand at a crucial juncture, facing a comprehensive renovation project with a total cost of $2,350,880.
This renovation isn't just about updating facilities; it's about creating a safe, modern, and inspiring environment where girls can continue to grow, learn, and lead.
