Legacy Rooted in the Everglades

As part of our Capital CAMPaign - Camp Telogia is being reimagined as a modern sanctuary for today’s Girl Scouts, while preserving the timeless essence that made it magical in the first place.

Camp Telgoia, established in 1961, this beloved property reflects the strength and resilience of South Florida’s girls, who have grown up within its rustic cabins, open-air pavilions, and shaded trails.

Its name, “Telogia,” is derived from the native palmetto trees that flourish across the camp’s terrain, symbols of rootedness, strength, and flexibility. For decades, this camp has served more than just a weekend's getaway; it is a rite of passage and a second home.

History of Camp Telogia toggle arrow

Camp Telogia, spanning 9.5 acres, is a cherished Girl Scout camp located on the north side of Holmberg Road, just west of SR 441, in Parkland. Since its establishment in 1961, Camp Telogia has served as a haven for outdoor adventures, providing countless girls with opportunities for growth, friendship, and exploration. Gifted to the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida by Broward County, the camp has been a testament to the community's commitment to nurturing the next generation of leaders.

However, in 2017, Camp Telogia ceased its operations, leaving behind a legacy of memories and a promise of future renewal. Previous plans to permanently abandon the property were halted in 2018, signaling a new chapter for Camp Telogia. In 2019, a three-phase restoration and revitalization plan was adopted, marking the beginning of a journey to breathe new life into this beloved retreat.
