Camp Fire Alaska's staff wrapped up a month-long healthy living Super Strong Staff triathlon today and celebrated their successes with yogurt parfaits and fun and games.They gained points by eating fruits and vegetables, exercising or being active, and drinking water each day. Watching the staff get excited about making healthy choices interested many of our before and after school program youth, and some sites held their own mini triathlons as well. Plus, all 28 Rural Program communities will get a chance to have a healthy living triathlon of their own this summer.

Camp Fire volunteer extraordinaire, Steve Fishback, was honored last weekend at the First Lady's Volunteer of the Year Awards. Congratulations Steve, and thank you, and Jan, for ALL that you do for Camp Fire Alaska!

Camp Fire Alaska will host an Operation Purple camp again this summer for military youth with parents who have been, are currently, or will be deployed. The camp is offered at no charge and is designed to help military children deal with the stresses of deployment. It’s a time for having fun, making friends, and reminding military kids that they are our Nation’s youngest heroes. Please consider a gift of support today, and help us make the dream of summer camp a reality for these kids and their families. Click here to donate.
