Campfire Host

As Masters of Ceremonies, organize a fun and formal campfire for other Scouts to attend. If you like, invite other nearby Troops! Invite your guests to contribute skits, songs and cheers. Make it one for the record books! From opening to closing, create one blazing evening that will be burned into people’s memories for years to come!

Keep it Simple

  • Partner with another Section and share this adventure with them! It’s easier to plan with others, so share the workload.

Take it Further

  • Mentor another Section in running a campfire – help your Pack or Troop to go through the steps of running a campfire!
