Remember your days of splashing around in the aquamarine colored pool with friends, playing games and diving for pennies? To make Camp Coleman a thriving provider of outdoor programming for Girl Scouts, the camp must have a pool! A grassroots funding campaign led by the Camp Coleman Caretakers fundraising chairs Sarah Edwards and Karen Carroll has been created to raise the $58,000 that it will take to revive the pool at Camp Coleman. Over $2,000 has already been raised- and we need your help!

Donate to the yard sale:
  • Make an appointment with Karen Carroll or Sarah Edwards to drop-off items for the sale at camp or to be picked up. We welcome Girl Scout memorabilia, craft supplies, furniture (please no mattresses), recreational supplies, sporting goods and camping supplies. Please, no  clothes unless Girl Scout memorabilia or accessories .  
To become a committee member or donate items for the yard sale, contact Sarah Edwards or Karen Carroll
