Camp Redwing

Since 1923, Camp Redwing has been the place where girls go for the traditional Resident Camp experience. Campfires, cookouts, songs, art, nature, canoeing and archery are a part of every session at Camp Redwing. Campers live in platform tents or yurts, with each camper having their own cot or bunk bed. Whether it is a two-night or two-week program, Camp Redwing allows girls to choose their level of adventure, make new friends and become a part of our rich traditions. For specific questions about this camp, e-mail redwing@gswpa.org.
