Camp Holloway is located on 76 acres in Millersville, Tennessee. It is named in honor of Josephine Groves Holloway, the first Black Girl Scout leader in Middle Tennessee, who was instrumental in creating this camp. Established as a camp for Black girls in 1952, today girls of all races, religions, and backgrounds gather at Camp Holloway to discover the fun, friendship, and power of girls together – just as Mrs. Holloway intended.

At Camp Holloway, girls can take part in a variety of outdoor adventures. Girls can experience archery, obstacle courses, rappelling and climbing towers, swimming, team adventure, and tree climbing. It’s also home to one of the two summer resident camps.
