At Camp Runels, girls can indulge in a variety of sports, from basketball and soccer to softball, volleyball, and swimming. The focus, however, isn't solely on physical activity. The camp is a sanctuary for girls dealing with asthma, diabetes, and behavioral issues, providing a safe space for them to overcome challenges and build resilience. Being a Girl Scout camp, the emphasis on camaraderie, leadership, and personal growth is paramount. It's more than just a summer getaway; it’s a place where girls can flourish into confident, compassionate individuals ready to take on the world. Camp Runels is a testament to the timeless spirit of the Girl Scouts - a place where friendships are forged, confidence is built, and every girl has the chance to shine. It's not just a camp; it's a home away from home, a haven where girls can be themselves and grow into the best versions of who they can be.
