CampHERO is a hands-on experience that introduces you to the protective services. You will explore your interests and skills while participating in activities in the areas of law enforcement, fire suppression, and emergency medicine. Girl Scouts work alongside the professionals at the Milwaukee Area Technical College Oak Creek campus during the day and spend your nights sleeping indoors at Trefoil Oaks Program Center in Kenosha.
Test your strengths, build new skills, have fun with friends, and explore careers where you can help make the world a better place.
REGISTER NOW!Your week will be jampacked with activities from all three career fields including crime scene analysis, fire suppression, CPR instruction, 911 dispatch communication, self-defense instruction, vehicle extrication (jaws of life), criminal investigation, search and rescue, Fire and Police Academy tour, and more!
Receive hands-on training and instruction from the women and men within the ranks of law enforcement, fire suppression, and emergency medicine who will help you experience first-hand what it takes to pursue these types of careers.
MATC will keep a record of your participation.
In the evenings, trade in those computers for campfires and bonding time with your friends at Girl Scout camp. All of the fun you have develops your leadership skills, increases your independence, and connects you with nature as you adventure in the great outdoors.
