Welcome to 2024 Summer Camp!

Our 2024 Summer Camp is a full-day experience for girls ages 5 to 14 in age-appropriate peer groups. Together with facilitators, they explore our research-based programs in hands-on, experiential ways! Problem-solving together helps build trust and teamwork and girls learn how to navigate friendships as well as grow up strong, smart, and bold.

Girls Inc. Summer Program Registration Begins Tuesday, April 2nd @ 9:00 am! Mark your calendars!

 

WHAT WILL SUMMER CAMP 2024 LOOK LIKE?

Summer Camp will be 8 weeks. We will be closed the week of July 4th. Summer camp hours will be from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Children entering kindergarten (5 years) through 6th grade can sign up for as many of the 8 weeks of camp as they choose.

Teens from 7th grade through 9th grade will participate in our outdoor leadership program which requires participation in 6 of the 8 weeks.

About our Programs

We equip girls with the tools to remain so in the face of societal pressure to conform to ever-evolving gender stereotypes. We respect the diversity of ideas and cultures, advocate for girls in the community, and provide opportunities to all girls regardless of culture, race, disability, or socioeconomic status.

Girls Incorporated encourages girls to take risks; think, probe, and be inquisitive; be leaders; be assertive, speak up for themselves and take action; make mistakes, learn from them and try again; try out new interests and acquire new skills; be healthy; physically, mentally and emotionally.

The programs in our Summer Camp change each year. Some examples of our programming are:

Economic Literacy® enhances financial competence and confidence, teaches fiscal responsibility, and promotes within girls a sense of economic justice.

Friendly PEERsuasion® approaches drug abuse prevention as a peer issue, using the positive influence of young people modeling healthy behavior.

Operation SMART® (Science, Math, And Relevant Technology) dispels stereotypes about math and science and invites girls to join the fun of discovering the world around them.

Mind + Body Inititative   Girls Inc. Mind+Body initiative supports and promotes the whole health of girls ages 6-18, emphasizing girls’ overall well-being by focusing on physical activity, body image, nutrition, and stress management.

We also spend as much time as we can outside, moving our bodies and exploring what the beautiful city of Santa Fe has to offer.
