Title
English: Group of Camp Fire Girls seated at a table, ca. 1923
Description
English: The Camp Fire Girls organization was founded in the eastern United States and spread to Seattle in 1919. Local groups had Native American-style names and many of their activites had Indian themes. Many Seattle Camp Fire Girls spent part of each summer at Camp Sealth, the organization's camp on Vashon Island. In the late 1990s, Camp Fire programs are open to both boys and girls.

This photo, taken around 1923, shows the leader, Mrs. Gladys Seymour, and the camp counselors of Seattle's Owaissu Camp Fire group. According to the October/November 1924 Camp Fire newsletter, members of the Owaissu group received a national Camp Fire award that year for their help fighting forest fires near Port Orchard, Washington, across Hood Canal from Camp Sealth.
