Camp-Along 2025 is a new summer camping opportunity for Guiding members of all ages: a two-night Spark/Ember experience (Saturday, July 26 to Monday, July 28, 2025) and a five-night Guide/Pathfinder/Ranger experience (Tuesday, July 29 to Sunday, August 3, 2025), powered by Core Volunteers (on-site from the evening of Friday, July 25 onwards).
Events will take place at six locations across BC, with most held at camp properties owned by Girl Guides of Canada. Have fun along with new and old friends at Camp-Along in:
Coastal Camp-Along - Camp Olave, Sechelt
Ridge Camp-Along - Camp Kanaka, Maple Ridge
Valley Camp-Along - Camp McLanlin, Abbotsford
Northern Camp-Along - Camp Hughes, Prince George
Island Camp-Along - Camp Creina, Duncan
Okanagan Camp-Along - Camp Arbuckle, Lake Country
All events will run on the same dates, with the same theme, and with a similar participant experience, but the opportunity for local flair and flavour specific to your camp location.
Our goal is to make summer camping fun, easy, and accessible for as many members as possible, with a new approach to delivering camp experiences that meets the needs of today’s volunteers and youth with as few barriers to participation as possible. Bring along your Guiding BFFs for an epic experience along with our Guiding sisterhood.
For those members outside of British Columbia:
1. Can my out-of-BC group attend? Registration is limited to BC members at this time. Should any camp location(s) have space remaining as of a date TBD, registration will open to out of province patrols. Stay tuned for any future announcements.
2. Can I volunteer as a Core Volunteer if I don't live in BC? Yes, please apply! You must be a current member of Girl Guides of Canada in good standing and meet the general criteria for volunteers. We will confirm your status with your provincial council.

Please note: The billing information during registration is a formality for the platform - you will not be charged any money for submitting your application.
