From Day Outings to Overnight Adventures

Girl Scout camping is all about progression—giving girls the space to try something new at their own pace.

The Resident Camp Experience: Designed for the Girl Scout ready to take a leap. Our resident camp offers 24/7 immersion in a supportive, girl-led community. Campers choose their own adventures and develop self-reliance through cabin life and shared traditions.
Local Day Camp: A fantastic first step for younger Girl Scouts or busy families. Our day camps offer local excursions led by dedicated staff in a safe, familiar environment close to home.

New to Girl Scouts? No problem! Our camps are open to all girls.

Camp Sandy Ridge

Sandy Ridge, owned and operated by Girl Scouts of Eastern South Carolina, is our resident camp located in Bennettsville, SC. The camp is on over 400 acres of beautiful sand hills. Facilities include sleeping units, swimming pool, two lakes, watercraft, an archery range, sports field, a clay pit and an air conditioned dining hall. Sandy Ridge hosts GSESC summer resident camp program, troop camping opportunities, training, and outdoor events and overnights for girls and adult volunteers.

A variety of animals call Sandy Ridge home because they are part of our animal program. We are always looking for donations of aquariums, animal cages, animal supplies, and animal food. Please contact Chuck Iler, Outdoor Program Specialist/Camp Director to find out what is needed.
