Twilight Camp Autumn Ridge/Southern Stars

Girl Scouts holds two Twilight Camp sessions at Lake Minnewashta Park each summer. This session July 22-25 is hosted by Northern Skies Girl Scouts (Chanhassen and surrounding areas). The July 29 - Aug 1 session is hosted by Girl Scouts of Autumn Ridge / Southern Stars (Chaska and surrounding areas). Details on the second week are at www.mytwilightcamp.org. Ask your Girl Scout's troop leader if you aren't sure which Service Unit your troop is in. Girls typically attend the camp hosted by their troop’s Service Unit, but are welcome to attend either (or both!) weeks!
