Club Program

The Club Program is the heart of the Camp Fire USA program. The club program focuses on our mission to Build Caring Confident youth and Future Leaders.

Volunteer leaders meet regularly with boys and girls in a small group setting for informal educational experiences like working on our program trails – to Knowing Me, to Family and Community, to Creativity and to the Future.
Recognition awards, in the form of emblems and beads, are earned by the youth by working out of the program books and service projects like making Valentines for Vets, Goodwill Dolls, Food Bank visits, etc. Youth usually meet once to twice a month for a group meeting, then once a month the council provides an activity that all families can participate in like bowling, nature hikes, caroling, parties, weekend camp outs, etc.
