An organization for children similar to the
Girl Scouts. In my day it was for girls; it is now
unisex and some of the structure has changed. When it was a girl's organization, the younger members were called Bluebirds. It was a very big deal, when I was in
grade school, to wear one's Bluebird or Camp Fire
uniform to school.
Instead of merit badges, Camp Fire Girls earned colored wooden beads for doing various tasks. The ceremonies and ranks were heavily influenced by Native American culture, or a pseudo variation of it. One gathered at Council Fires, chose an "Indian" name, and wore (when one had earned enough beads) a sort of squaw-like gown with a leather collar from which the beads were strung.
The Camp Fire Girls sold chocolate-covered mint patties for their fundraiser, and usually hit the streets earlier in the spring than the Girl Scouts with their cookies.
Like the Scouts, Camp Fire runs summer camps where one learns crafts, sings camp songs, and builds, surprise, campfires.
