TWO SENTINELS
|
|
Since it began in 1936, Two Sentinels has provided thousands
of girls a sense of independence, fun, outdoor awareness, and
life-long friendships.
Two Sentinels welcomes all girls (Girl Scouts & non-scouts alike) who are entering fourth grade and beyond. As weather and other circumstances only allow us to operate three eight-day sessions a year, and considering our powerful history and outstanding reputation, registration is extremely impacted and very limited! Campers are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, regardless of race, ethnicity, cultural identification, socio-economic standing, differing ability, or sexual orientation.
Two Sentinels is a volunteer-run resident camp, meaning everyone, from the counselors to the cooks and even the directors, is a volunteer. This adds a unique aspect to the experience at Two Sentinels, because everyone who works to make each session special is enthusiastic, well-trained, extremely motivated, and excited!
Nestled among the pine trees, granite slopes, and clear waters of the Sierra Nevada, Camp Two Sentinels is a welcome relief from the hectic bustle of suburban life. At 8,000 feet above sea level, the sun warms the skin, the mountain lakes cool the body, and the rocky trails stimulate the muscles. During the day, the sun shines brightly down through unpolluted air, and at night, the stars are as bright and thick as diamonds resting in curls of velvet.
But even if that doesn't tickle your fancy, eight days and seven nights of fun and adventure might! Crafts, archery, great food, hiking, swimming, canoeing, funyaking, backpacking, sailing, outdoor cooking, campfires, singing, nature study, backpacking, making new friends, and gaining a feeling of strength and independence are all part of every session at Two Sentinels Girl Scout Camp!
