Camp Tall Trees is a residential camp especially for girls and is organized by Girl Scouts of Northern California. Camp Tall Trees is open to Girl Scouts and non girl scouts alike. We aim to make it possible for any girl to attend irrespective of her family’s ability to pay. Financial aid is available to girls who would otherwise be unable to attend.
We are sad to announce that we will again be unable to hold camp at Wolf Creek our traditional home. IRT (Innovative Readiness Training teams) will be returning to the park this summer. They will be performing more upgrades and restoration within Redwood Park. While the work is not specific to Wolf Creek, the park will be housing them at at Wolf Creek.
