Camp Fire Samish connects young people to the outdoors, to others, and to themselves
We strive to create safe and inclusive environments that celebrate diversity and foster positive relationships.
Camp Fire Samish
Camp Fire Samish has served the community since 1910. Camp Fire’s programs provide nurturing and constructive environments for young people to discover their sparks—unique skills, passions, and interests. Camp Fire has always recognized that curious youth exploring the world need a secure place to grow up. And since 1910 Camp Fire Samish has provided that place. Camp Fire believes when youth get the chance to be outdoors, to work with others in community, and learn to respect nature, they also learn self-awareness and responsibility. We’re proud of the role we have played—and continue to play—in guiding young lives to an appreciation of their own lives and the world we all live in.
