hey there!! thanks for a wonderful first year of camp fire, we learned a lot and will continue to bond as a group, it's so exciting!

Three summer activities are on the calendar: The Acoustic Tidal Artwalk at the Colorado Lagoon Friday July 9 and Saturday July 10 from 6pm to 10pm. Music, Art, Food, Crafts (We are hosting a craft table) and lots of info about the restoration of the lagoon. The setting is gorgeous, sunset at the beach, not too hot or too cold and a great way to kick off summer! Join us for an hour or two, help out at the craft table if you can.

Saturday July 31st Camp Fire 100 year birthday party... invites should be coming to you in the mail soon... info will be posted here asap... we are hosting the water table. There will be a large ceremonial campfire set at 7pm.

We can work on the ditty bag at the day camp meeting, let me know if you are having trouble putting it together. You will need one set of plastic dishes with plastic knife, fork, spoon (don't forget a plastic cup) to put in your ditty bag. During camp you will bring one plastic water bottle full of water on monday, please put your name on the outside with a sharpie, we will use the same bottle the entire week and refill daily.

Summer events

Coming up, a few events to attend:

Friday and Saturday, July 9th and 10th "Acoustic Tidal Artwalk" at the Colorado Lagoon. I am in charge of hosting an arts/crafts/games table/booth area and need my Camp Fire kids to help out. Soon I will have all the details, but if you can volunteer for this event let me know. Friday night will be the hardest night for me since I will be coming straight from work.

It is held at the Colorado Lagoon in Long Beach, last year it was in the late afternoon/evening, official times for this year are not out yet. It is a fun celebration at the beach with displays of art/photos that are influenced by our beaches and wetlands. There will be food, music, activities for the kids, a lovely location. We enjoyed ourselves so much last year, looking forward to being a part of the festivities this year. This is a great way for our camp fire kids to get out in the public showing support for our local wetlands. You can just show up and have fun at this event, either night.

July 31st Saturday
the 100 years of Camp Fire Celebration!!! This event will be starting in the afternoon (around 4pm) and we are signed up to help at a table selling (or giving out??) water. Please mark your calendars for this event and tell all your friends and families to come. this is a National event and 100 year celebrations don't come around every day!!

Camp Shiwaka August 9 through 13 (day camp meeting to be announced, probably Sat or Sun August 7/8)

A few dates to put on your calendar for next year: the Benefit Auction Saturday September 25th, our group will be donating a basket. All groups are invited to attend the dinner and help support Camp Fire. If you are looking for ways to help support Camp Fire in Long Beach, this dinner would be a great way. Camp Fire is always struggling financially, so this might be something your family is interested in attending. It is held at the Long Beach Hilton.

A few fall dates:
October Halloween The Potential Lunatics Concert (I am hoping for Saturday October 30th, will confirm soon)
October 1st Neighborhood potluck, bunco night 6pm
October 23 fall halloween carnival 4-7pm
