​Camp Fire (organization) - Wikipedia
​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camp_Fire_USA​Native American culture influenced the early years of Camp Fire. Native American culture has served as the inspiration for ceremonial activities and attire, camp and council names, respect for nature and the environment, and the use of symbols by many councils. For Camp Fire, Native American symbolism was a natural outgrowth of an appreciation for differences and cultural inclusiveness. The theory was that such symbolism enabled—and even encouraged—self-reflection and personal growth.
​Summers Spent Traveling Across Country Camping at National Parks Visiting Museums and Zoos. Loved listening to park rangers at campfires, hiked eight miles into Bryce Canyon, watched dinosaur bones being excavated and climbed up ladders into dwellings at Mesa Verde.
