At Camp CEO, high school girls are paired with successful, female community leaders for a weekend-long personal development experience. In the remote setting of Camp Elliott Barker in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, girls will have the opportunity to learn by example through the lives of their adult mentors.
While developing greater self-awareness, the girls will increase their knowledge of career options in preparation for joining the workforce. They will have the opportunity to explore realistic career goals as they interview the “CEOs” and learn about their personal journeys. The adult CEOs will guide girls through a series of activities that teach them how to complete a job application, build a resume, and interview for a position.
The girls will take the DiSC© personality profile and learn how personalities affect their relationships in school, the workplace, and at home. They will learn to work successfully in groups and gain acceptance and respect for their opinions and beliefs. By the end of the weekend they will draft a career plan, expressing their vision and how they intend to achieve their dream.
Be a part of this life changing opportunity for our communities young women!
What we need: Mentors! “CEOs” or Mentors for Camp CEO should be women who are established in their careers. Women willing to share their stories and experiences with girls. Women passionate about mentoring girls as they prepare for their future.
When & Where: July 31 - August 2, 2015

Girl Scouts is the premier leadership organization dedicated solely to girls. For over 100 years Girls Scouts has been diligently pursuing its mission to build girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place. Girl Scouts provides opportunities for girls to develop leadership skills and self-esteem through self-discovery; collaborating with other girls and adults; and taking action to improve their communities. Girls grades K–12 gather a wide range of experiences by participating in diverse activities. In addition to the traditional troop model, girls can participate in single-day or special events, camp, and afterschool programming. Our programs balance fun with experiential hands-on learning to achieve short- and intermediate-term outcomes that give girls the means to cultivate 21st century skills and the knowledge and attitudes necessary to be successful in school, career, and life.
