Camp Congress for Girls DC 2026 featuring a Day on Capitol Hill is a week-long political leadership summer camp. The week includes a day at the United States Capitol. While on Capitol Hill students will tour the Capitol, visit the House &amp; Senate galleries, meet with a member of Congress*, visit to the Library of Congress and United States Supreme Court. Students also visit the National Archives to view the Constitution, Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence. Scheduled guest speakers include professionals working in the electoral politics and government. The outings are paired with our Camp Congress for Girls classroom curriculum which begins with a lesson on the structure of our political system. 
During camp each student will choose to run for a seat in the US House of Representatives, the US Senate or for the presidency. She will create her own campaign with a platform, campaign slogan, campaign fundraising appeal and record a short campaign ad. All students will register to vote and participate in our Camp Congress for Girls election. Once elected to Congress and sworn in, the newly installed members of Congress will learn how to introduce a bill, research issues, debate the merits of the bill, lobby fellow legislators, collaborate with the Executive branch and finally vote on the proposed bill. All students will be serving as a member of the House or Senate during the congressional session. Camp will culminate with a ceremonial signing of the bill by our Ms. President. 
All students earn a Certificate of Completion. Girl Scouts attending Camp Congress for Girls DC 2026 will also earn a Girl Scout citizen or democracy badge. The camp fee includes all materials used for classroom activities. Parents and guardians are responsible for travel and accommodations for students traveling to Washington, DC to attend the program. This is a not a residential program. For students traveling to the District of Columbia, we recommend booking accommodations at CitizenM Capitol, Residence Inn National Mall, Hilton Washington DC National Mall, Hyatt Regency Capitol Hill or Kimpton George Hotel. 
Registration is open to girls ages 9-17. Tickets limited to 20 students in each age group, ages 9-11 and ages 12-17. Register early, now accepting deposits. For additional information email us at info@girlsinpolitics.com or call our office at +1 866-277-2123 ext 1.

DC Improv Comedy Club

The son of a preacher, Marcus has a charismatic style of delivery that's clean, captivating, funny and knowledgeable. He provides lots of laughter along with a guaranteed message on being a better you. His motto for his brand of comedy is “Laughter is good, but the Message is better!” Wooing the masses, Marcus’ widespread appeal is contemporary enough to entice the fashion-savvy and culturally conscious Generation Xs, Ys, and Zs, but traditional enough to melt the matriarch’s heart as he recounts Mama’s mandates. These shows are his DC Improv headlining debut!
