Camp Alice Pittenger

Overnight, Waterfront Camp in McCall, ID

For over 80 amazing years, Girl Scouts have been creating memories of camp magic on the shores of Payette Lake at Camp Alice Pittenger. Girls laugh while singing camp songs around the campfire, cheer for each other while racing canoes, build sisterhood helping each other succeed on the low ropes course and giggle the night away over silly stories in their cabins. Camp Alice Pittenger’s deep traditions have girls coming back year after year, sometimes even generation after generation.

Summer Camp Sessions - MY26

Hi Campers & Families,

My name is Ashley. I am thrilled to be returning for my third season as Camp Director at Camp Alice Pittenger. This is my seventh season in Summer Camping and I'm very excited to make it a great one. I can't wait for your camper to come to Camp Alice Pittenger and experience the magic of a week at camp. This summer's offerings are sure to be full of fun, connections, and ways to ignite your spark!

When I'm not at camp, I run a preschool program. When I'm not at work you'll find me studying for my Associates degree in Early Childhood Education, paddle boarding, camping, and practicing archery in the off season.

Where will my camper eat, sleep and play at camp?

Camp Alice Pittenger is a rustic camp facility with modern amenities. The dining hall, health center, bathroom house, camp office and staff cabins have electricity. There are flush toilets and running water in the main camp shower house.

Meals are shared as a camp in the dining hall or nearby outdoor seating area. Our outdoor seating area has one of the best views on the lake.

When girls arrive at camp, they will be assigned to a unit. A unit is a group of cabins with girls all in the same program and age group. Campers will sleep in cabins without electricity. Private changing rooms and showers are provided. Campers may participate in an overnight camping trip in tents, hammocks or sleeping under the stars.

Council-led overnight camps are designated around single-gender sleeping arrangements. In the instance of a family or Troop camp, where both men and women are present, single-gender or single-family sleeping accommodations will be provided.

Each Unit has a campfire, outdoor seating, a port-a-john, and a hand-washing station with running water.

Our Camp Counselors sleep in a cabin/ tent in the same campsite area as their camper however, they do not sleep in the cabin/tent with the campers. This allows campers to build independence with a trusted adult nearby.

During the day, campers will experience morning, afternoon and evening programming including but not limited to campfires, swimming, boating (canoeing and stand-up-paddle boarding), archery, low-ropes, STEM and arts-and-crafts. Specific sessions also have field trips and themed activities to make their week extra special.

Safety is our number one priority at Girl Scout camp. Camp Alice Pittenger is an American Camp Association accredited program meaning it meets the highest standards of camp health and safety.

Our talented team of staff and volunteers are interviewed, have background checks through our HR department, and attend training for their specific roles, responsibilities, and program areas. Many of our staff were previously Girl Scouts and campers themselves who bring years of experience to the program.

Girls will attend activities together as a Unit guided by their camp counselors. During the week, there will be times that multiple Units or the entire camp will do activities together such as an all-camp game or campfire programs.

We have a designated Health Supervisor at camp who is responsible for all aspects of health management at camp including dispensing medication, first-aid, and emergency response. All staff hold current First Aid & CPR certifications.

Our Kitchen Manager oversees our menu and food service. Each meal offers well-rounded, child-friendly foods and will include protein, fruits, vegetables, and carbs. For example, we may have pancakes with a side of sausage and fruit for breakfast, grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch and spaghetti for dinner. We offer cereal at every breakfast and salad is available at lunch and dinner.

Yes! When registering, please list up to three campers who you would like your camper to be buddies with. While we try to ensure that all buddy requests can be honored, we are sometimes unable to place buddies if the age gap is too large (for example, a 7^th grader buddy requesting a 3^rd grader). If friends, sisters or troopmates are put into another group, they will be able to see each other during meals and evening programs.
