History: Rock Hill camp has been a favorite site with Girl Scout troops since 1922 when it was leased by the Westchester Girl Scout Camp Committee, Inc. a group comprised of 18 different councils from around the county. Five years later it was purchased with the help of such famous people as V. Everit Macy, Felix Wartburg, Edwin Gould and John D. Rockefeller, Jr. In 1991 Rock Hill Camp underwent major renovations where four winterized cabins and four washhouses were built. Soon after that, the dining hall was renovated and winterized. Additionally low, mid, and high ropes courses were installed.
