DescriptionBack to top

Camp Tanasi is located in Andersonville on 461 forested acres bordering Norris Lake, an ideal setting for girls.  Camp Tanasi offers a climbing tower, challenge course, rappelling wall, dock for canoeing, kayaking, paddle boating and water skiing, hiking trails, backcountry camping, swimming pool, archery and crafts.

All girls are welcome at Camp Tanasi, no previous membership required.

Discovery options are designed to let girls explore many aspects of activities at camp in a 3-day or 6-day overnight traditional resident camp setting.  Discovery options are perfect for first-time campers as well as girls who have gone to resident camp before who would like to try something new.

Through the Connections options, campers will focus on a particular area of interest (i.e. culinary, nature, backpacking, water skiing) and be fully immersed in learning new skills and improving the ones they have in a 6-day overnight camp.  Girls will build skills, knowledge and expertise in that area.

Older girls may choose the Take Action option if they are interested in becoming a camp counselor someday at any camp over 2+ weeks of overnight camp.
