Girls’ Stories, Girls’ Voices is a week-long summer camp for girls entering grades 6-8, hosted by Thrive and created by Thrive’s longtime friend Nancy Nelson. Our five days together are designed to inspire confidence, connection, imagination, and self-expression in our campers. The middle school years can often be a time of great transition for girls trying new skills, making new friends, and even attending new schools. We aim to create a safe space for girls to find some shared commonalities and connection with their peers to help them feel ready to boldly go into the world. The mission of Girls’ Stories, Girls’ Voices (GSGV) is for each girl to find her voice, and use it to share her story.
The theme of this year’s GSGV Camp is Girls are Creative! The theme will guide us to explore different ways to be creative from artwork, to writing, storytelling, movement, music, and more. There are a million ways that girls can inspire the world around them, and our goal is to help our girls find the ways they can be the truest versions of themselves while doing just that.
We invite you to join us this summer at Girls’ Stories, Girls’ Voices Summer Camp during the week of July 17th-21st at Thrive. Scholarships are available – please contact Maria Malloy at mmalloy@allthrive.org with any questions.
