In Camp Fire USA Clubs, boys and girls have fun, but they are also learning valuable lessons that will stay with them for a lifetime.
- Progression of Skills
As the children get older they are given more responsibility, choices and leadership.
- Variety
While sharing the same core values, every Club has flexibility to design their own activities (everything from community service projects to field trips). The average size Club is between six to eight kids and has the opportunity to earn money for outings through the annual Candy Fundraiser.
- Partnerships between youth and adults
Youth and adults set the direction of activities and accomplishments.
- Rewards and Recognition
Once each project or set of projects is completed, children are rewarded with emblems and/or beads. This is an important part of Camp Fire USA programs. It helps to build self-esteem and pride in their accomplishments.
