READFIELD — Girl Scouts of Maine will host open house events at their four camp properties to give families an opportunity to see for themselves what camp is all about.

On Sunday, June 3, Camp Kirkwold in Readfield, and Camp Natarswi, located just inside Baxter State Park, will welcome visitors from 1 to 4 p.m.

Camp Pondicherry in Bridgton and Camp Scelkit in Kittery Point will host open house events from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 10.

Families visiting a camp will take a walking tour of the grounds, meet some of the camp staff and learn about Girl Scouts of Maine’s traditional, skills-building camp programs as well as specialty camp offerings.

“Our day and resident camps are open to Girl Scouts and non-Girl Scouts alike,” said Anne Randall, Girl Scouts of Maine camping services director. “Hundreds of girls return to our camps every summer, and hundreds more join us for the first time. Girls like the fact that they can choose activities that interest them, make new friends and have a great time. But, I think the most important thing to parents is that we provide their child with a safe place to live, work and play while encouraging values, independence and respect for the environment.”
