Girl power in the outdoors! Camp Potomac Woods is located an hour away from Washington, DC in Leesburg, VA, and is a forested wonderland along the Potomac River for girls age 5-17.

Facilities at camp include a dining hall where meals are served family-style, an arts and crafts building, swimming pool, 2 shower houses, health center, and a staff house for your relaxation.

Staff Qualities
We are looking for staff dedicated to youth development, who are considerate and caring of others, eager to learn new skills, responsible and respectful, flexible, and eager to be a mentor to peers and campers. Be willing to challenge yourself- dance in the rain, sing around a campfire, walk happily through the woods, gaze at the stars, get splashed in the face, and eat gooey marshmallows over a campfire.
