Junior Maine Guides
Girls ages 14-17, join us for the adventure of a lifetime. This summer, you can earn your Junior Maine Guide (JMG) certification at Camp Natarswi. Spend three weeks at camp perfecting 21 outdoor skills, then put them to the test on a five-day adventure at the final test encampment in the Rangeley Lakes area, alongside JMG candidates from other camps.
Camp Natarswi sits in Baxter State Park, in the shadow of Mount Katahdin, along the shoreline of Lower Togue Pond. It's a true wilderness paradise.
The JMG program is offered at only 10 camps in Maine, and Girl Scouts have been earning their JMG for nearly 90 years. Join this accomplished group of Girl Scouts who have had the determination and skills to earn the Junior Maine Guide certification. JMG is unique to the State of Maine and is an amazing achievement for any girl who loves the outdoors. Financial aid is available.
Level 1 (Junior Maine Woodscraft, grades 5-7) and Level 2 (Maine Woodscraft, grades 7-9) preparation sessions are also offered at Camp Natarswi for younger campers. Prerequisites for prior outdoor skills development apply.
