Camp Dean is owned and operated by the Girl Scouts—Fox Valley Council. The winter office of Camp Dean is located in Sugar Grove, IL while the actual camp property and program is located in Big Rock, IL. Camp Dean is 160 acres of natural woodlands, wetlands, and forests for campers and staff to explore. Campers sleep in platform tents or cabins. Staff will sleep in “staff only” designated cabins and tents near campers. Programs are conducted in our program buildings or through out camp in our pool, private lake, creek, fields, and trails.
Camp Dean serves girls and young women in grades 1-12. Camp sessions vary from overnight sessions of 3, 5 or 12 days. Camp Dean staff act as role models and mentors to the girls and help guide them daily life at camp from meals, kapers, activity programs, all-camp events and much more. Programs areas include art, aquatics, kayaking, trips, canoeing, drama, horseback riding (Western), dance, sports, nature, team challenges, archery, leadership, and more!
Girl Scouting and Camp Dean builds girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place. Be a part of it!
