Vespers (Spiritual)
Camp Arrowhead is a private girls traditional summer camp established in 1934. We provide a safe, wholesome and positive atmosphere for girls (ages 6-17) to develop confidence and talents within themselves through the many activities offered. We gently guide the girls socially and spiritually into young ladies. This is a place where girls can be girls. Our specialty is FUN!
Camp Arrowhead for girls is located on 650 beautiful Texas Hill Country acres in Hunt, TX. It boasts wonderful carpet grass under huge cypress trees along the clear headwaters of the Guadalupe River.
It was established in 1934 by Ewing & Martha "Mattie Garner" Gillis and is ran today by the same family. The Gillis' began a rich history of traditions with a Native American theme that are still in use today. We use the Kickapoo and Pawnee tribes to engage in friendly competition.
We offer many activities such as; archery, arts & crafts, camp craft, canoeing, cheerleading, drama, gymnastics, hiking, horseback riding, riflery, ropes course, self-defense, sports, tennis, swimming and more. We allow your daughter to create her own schedule according to her tastes.
We have a program that will help your daughter discover talents she never thought she had. Most of all ... she will develop friendships that will last a lifetime!
"I had my doubts about sending a 6 year old to camp for 2 weeks, but after this weekend, I know that I would be doing a great injustice if I didn't send her! You guys are wonderful people and have an outstanding staff. What a relief to know that my daughter will be in such loving and gentle hands."
- Gayle (mother of Emily (Kickapoo '04-'07) & Nikki)
"Camp taught me a lot about friendship and courage. It was a new experience for me that I was nervous about at first, but then I was having the time of my life. Pretty soon there were tears of having to leave Camp Arrowhead and my new friends."
- Niki (Pawnee '06)
"The most fun thing of my childhood was being a camper at Camp Arrowhead. What a thrill it was for a city child from Houston to experience. Not only did I become proficient at my sports, I also met girls who were my friends for years."
- Ruthy (Kickapoo Alumnae 40's & 50's)
"I was impressed with Camp Arrowhead in general, Kelli, Rob and the counselors. I think you all are over the top when it comes to caring and understanding all your campers."
- Grama Barb (grandmother of Ellen (Pawnee '06) & Claire (Pawnee '06)
