Site/Accommodations

Camp Misty Mountain is located in Northwest Georgia in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, surrounded by national forest with a 100-acre lake. Facilities used during the weekend include: two-story dining hall, five winterized cabin units, and craft house. Each living unit has a fire ring and outdoor program space. All units are handicapped-accessible.

Parking

Vehicles will be allowed to park in the main parking lot by the dining hall only. Carpooling is highly recommended to maximize available parking spaces. Please park in the designated areas only.

Classes & Workshops

Our classes & workshops are designed to enhance your personal growth and program skills for leading girls.  In order to maintain high quality classes presented by knowledgeable instructors, some classes have an additional small fee for supplies.  You cannot just drop into a class; you must be registered for the class or workshop in order to attend. The number of participants for each class/workshop is limited.  Classes and workshops are filled on a first come, first served basis - this is why it is important to give us three choices for each class/workshop session. Every effort will be made to give you your first choice. If a class/workshop you have chosen is cancelled, we’ll place you in your next choice.

Meals

Meals will be cooked and provided cafeteria-style by the Misty Mountain staff in the Dining Hall.  The menu for the weekend is online. Please note any special dietary needs on your registration form; those with particular dietary restrictions may also bring their own food (food must be kept in the dining hall or unit kitchens only). A snack table will be available all weekend long in the dining hall. Each camper should bring a snack to share.

SWAPS

There is a Girl Scout tradition of exchanging SWAPS (small, inexpensive, handmade tokens that can be worn). So make some to bring with you or you can make some at the weekend (in our swap shop) to exchange with other participants. Remember, when making your SWAPS it is a good idea to keep this year's theme in mind. Participants should plan to bring up to 75 SWAPS to the leader weekend.

Entertainment

Our Entertainment Committee has been working overtime to make sure you have plenty of fun during the weekend. On Friday night we will be showing our "Jungle Feature" movie in the downstairs "theater". Also on Friday, after checking in Leaders can take part in a "Get Acquainted" game with a jungle theme. Participants in the game will compete to be the "Queen of the Jungle" and win the treasured prize. Then on Saturday, after dinner, we will have a Jungle Costume/Fashion Show with a parade of participants vying for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prizes, so don’t forget to bring your favorite jungle outfit with you. Afterwards, enjoy another showing of our featured movie or stay to play "Jungle Charades" and see who can come up with the craziest performance.
