Camp Fire USA is a community-based non-profit organization that builds caring, confident, youth and future leaders. When it began in 1910, it was the first integrated, non-sectarian organization for girls in the United States. Camp Fire has evolved into a network of 120 councils nationwide, and together we serve over 750,000 boys and girls between the ages of 3 and 18 every year.
The North Central Washington Council of Camp Fire has served youth since opening in 1912, making us one of the most successful and deeply rooted youth-development organizations in our community. |
What We Do
Camp Fire USA North Central Washington Council is proud to provide a diverse array of programs year-round that enhance educational enrichment, promote civic engagement, and provide opportunities for experiencing the natural splendor of the great outdoors. In partnership with committed volunteers and staff, Camp Fire gives young people the tools and skills they need to be successful at school, at home, and in our community. We do this by working with youth and encouraging them to:
- Contribute to their community through service and civic participation

- Value and promote diversity
- Become self-confident people who care about others and the community
