Dedicated to helping girls build confidence and character, Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas (GSNETX) maintains a number of programs and camps. The organization currently has five different camps available to local girl scouts:

1. Camp K: also known as Camp Kadohadacho, Camp K covers 150 acres of land on Lake Texoma in Pottsboro. The site maintains a fire circle, amphitheater, and bathhouse; campers stay in their own tents. Additionally, the lake offers swimming and canoeing activities.
