What is the Camping Library?
The Camping Library was created as a result of a Girl Scout's Gold Award, which is similar to an Eagle Scout Award for Boy Scouts. You can read more about the Gold Award process for this Camping Library on the “Gold Award” page. The goal of the Camping Library is to encourage people to go camping by providing some of the more expensive equipment involved. Without the risk of investing a lot of money in a tent or Dutch oven that one may use a few times a year or never again, people will be more likely to expand their horizons by trying something new.
