What families can expect

Families can expect programming shaped by youth development research, since activities are built on the Thrive{ology} curriculum and designed to help young people gain confidence and skills.

Because after-school clubs and summer camps run at different times of year, families can rely on Camp Fire across the calendar, and siblings of different ages can often take part together. Registering ahead of a season helps secure a place, and it is worth asking what a child should bring and how a typical session is structured before the first day. Families who are new to Camp Fire can ask about a typical day, what a child should bring, and how groups are organized by age, so a first session feels familiar rather than uncertain for a child.
