More Great Programs

Camp CEO: Changing Definition of Leadership, Changing Lives

Camp CEO is simply not like anything you’ve ever experienced. As a girl participant, you will discover that the women who run local companies and make important decisions every day were once teens just like you, trying to decide where to go to college and what they wanted to be. This is YOUR chance to ask them questions, hear their surprising stories, and learn how the choices they made impacted their lives.

In addition to powerful one-on-one sessions with the women who volunteer their time to be at Camp CEO, you’ll also connect to other teen girls by participating in fun camp-based activities like geocaching (high-tech scav-enger hunting), swimming, team-building games, and archery.

Participate in yoga, self defense, dressing for success, and networking workshops. Then plan and host a huge dinner party with fancy place-settings, table decorations and party food. The adult campers will participate right along with you in all these activities.
