About Cascade Challenge

Cascade Challenge is a primitive tent camping/outdoor skills competition
weekend for Cadettes (Gr. 6-8) & Senior/Ambassador (Gr. 9-12) of Girl Scouts
of Western Washington Council*. This event is brought to you by a GSWW
Committee of Volunteers. This will be our 43rd year!

Troops will arrive Friday afternoon after 3PM to set up your campsite. Relax,
look at the camp, mingle with outer troops. All challenge rotations will take
place on Saturday, where the scouts will be evaluated on their teamwork,
leadership skills, and combined knowledge in the skill areas listed below.
Saturday night is our famous Dinner Challenge! End Saturday relaxing at our
roaring all camp campfire with songs and skits. Awards and recognition will
occur on Sunday.

Things to keep in mind: Troops bring ALL the equipment necessary for
primitive troop camping and will be cooking all their won meals. Campsites
are in an open, grassy, tree-less, bumpy meadow. Site sizes approximately
the size of a two-car garage (considerations will be taken given State
Mandates and group sizes). Water and outhouses are provided. Troops carry
their gear from a staging area to their site (about the length of a football
field). The Troop Preparation Packet is set upon registration to guide your
training and planning.
