TROOP MITRE WORK WEEKEND
October 19-22, 2023
Come join us at Camp Mitre Peak October 19-22 to build, paint, repair, and whatever else it may take to keep camp in great shape for our Girl Scouts! There’s a job for everyone, so no matter what your skills may be, you can make a contribution. While we work, we catch up with old friends and make new ones, laugh, sing, and enjoy being at our favorite camp. Troop Mitre has a reputation for feeding us well, so come enjoy the offerings of our awesome volunteer cooks. If you can’t stay the whole time, join us for as much as you can.
Troop Mitre events are open to those who love Camp Mitre Peak who are 18 years of age or older.
