(Camper's Aids to Topic No. 32) "CAMP FIRES AND HOW TO RUN THEM"

1. Camp fires are a very fruitful source of "Fun, Adventure, and Romance" in our camp programs. They should be used but perhaps not every evening. There are other types of evening activity that give the same important elements and their use lends variety and additional materials to what we do.

2. Camp fires should be friendly and wholesome in nature. They have been known to degenerate into things where neither of the above elements were present, and as such they had no business in a Scout Camp - or elsewhere!

3. The next several pages give some samples of organization, methods, and program materials. The Handbook for Scoutmasters should also be consulted, as well as other Scouting literature on this topic.
