HELP WANTED: Serve on the Camp Fire USA Board
Drawing on the traditions of the 101 year-old national organization, Camp Fire USA Balcones Council has been serving boys, girls, and their families in central Texas for nearly five decades. All that’s missing is a few good CPAs to serve on their Board! Camp Fire is hosting a “Board Social” on the evening of February 9th to meet community members who have an interest in serving on the Board. This would be the perfect opportunity for an introduction to Camp Fire. Interested? Follow up with Camp Fire Executive Director Rebecca Benz.
