Please see below for some of our most frequently asked questions about our change in plans for Summer 2022. Additional questions? Reach out to customercare@hngirlscouts.org to get more info.
Why is registration for Summer Camp 2022 closed?
Unfortunately, we have made the difficult, but necessary,
decision to suspend our planned Summer 2022 Resident Camp programs at
the Dale Earnhardt Environmental Leadership Campus at Oak Springs
(DEELCOS) in light of the impact of staffing shortages on our camp
team. This is a heartbreaking decision given the importance of outdoor
experiences as part of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, but
delivering a quality, robust, impactful, and safe experience to our
Camp Family is our top priority.
If I was already registered for Summer Camp 2022, what happens to
my payment toward my Camp balance?
Payments will be refunded in 7-10 business days following the
notice of our Camp updates (4/5/2022). Campers who used Buzz Bucks to
pay for all or a portion of their camp registration will be re-issued
2022 Buzz Bucks.
What if I had planned to use recently earned Buzz Bucks or selected
Summer Camp as my Cookie Reward and hadn't yet registered?
Buzz Bucks earned during the 2022 Cookie Season can be used to
pay for Camp Registration for Summer 2023 when this launches in the
fall. Reminder: Your Buzz Bucks do not expire until December 2022, so
there is still plenty of time to use your hard-earned reward for
awesome and memorable Girl Scout programming!
Girls who selected
Summer Camp as a Cookie Reward during the 2022 Cookie Season will be
contacted separately to select a different reward.
What about other outdoor programs at the Dale Earnhardt
Environmental Leadership Campus at Oak Springs?
We have already started planning family fun days at camp, and
can’t wait to see you there! Once these dates are set, we look forward
to inviting the entire Hornets’ Nest Membership to still enjoy all the
summer fun at camp. Our registered campers for Summer 2022 will
receive exclusive first access to these events. We look forward to
sharing more information about these family fun days when it is
available, as we plan to wait until the planned upgrades and repairs
are solidly completed before extending the invitation.
What about Summer 2023?
We’re so excited to see our Camp Family in 2023, and know we
have lots of adventure to catch up on! We hope those who planned to
join us in 2022 will join us at DEELCOS for Summer 2023, and are
extending a $50 credit toward their registration for all the fun at
our Camp Family reunion! Once Summer 2023 registration is open, this
year’s Campers will receive an additional email with information to
secure their session and use their credit.
