Camp Fire Program On Four Age Levels The Clinton Council of Camp Firs Girls, Inc., an agency of the Clinton Community Chest, is a progressive program with four levels for girls aged seven through high school. The Blue Bird program for seven and eight years old is built around the Blue Bird Wish, with emphasis upon cre ative play, dramatization and exploring ideas. During these happy years, girls develop as individuals through grojup expe riences. Camp Fire Girls for ages nine through eleven stress the Seven Crafts which represent the sev en points in a girl’s education. These seven points which will always be important are home, outdoor—life, citizenship, cre ative arts, frontiers, sports and games, and business. Junior Hi Camp Fire Girls*is the newest program level and is special and different. These twelve and thirteen year olds want to be one of the crowd. The new rank for them is Group Torch Bearer. In addi tion to this, there are 25 fields of interest in which a girl may achieve rank. . The Horizon girls are high, school students with aims of service. Service through volun teering, looking to future ca reers. The girls are ready and able to carry out their own programs, sparked by their im agination and interest.
