About Our Alumni
Camp Sealth and Camp Fire alumni are an incredible group of people, spanning generations back to the 1920s. Whether you spent your summers at Camp Sealth, attended one of our many day camps, grew up in a Camp Fire group, or earned your WoHeLo Award, you are a part of the Camp Fire family. Former campers, staff members, parents, board members, volunteers, group leaders, camp counselors, donors, sponsors, or fans – you belong here! Thank you for being a part of Camp Fire’s incredible history.
We invite all alumni of Camp Fire and Camp Sealth to stay involved, and we offer many different ways to engage with our current programs.

Volunteer

Many of our programs just wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support of our volunteers. We offer lots of ways to volunteer, whether it’s just for a day, a week, or on a regular/ongoing basis. Register on our website, or contact us at carriek@campfireseattle.org if you’re interested in helping out with any of the following.
Be a Leader
If you’re looking for a way to be involved on a deeper level, we’re always looking for people interested in joining the board or a committee that focuses on specific issues or events. It is not necessary to live locally to participate in most of these efforts! Reach out at carriek@campfireseattle.org if you are interested in any of the following.
- Alumni Committee: The Alumni Committee will work on a yearly calendar of events, host alumni socials, write newsletter content, and help out with alumni-focused efforts throughout the year.
- Equity Action Fund Advisory Group: If you identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, or a Person of Color) and want to support our efforts towards diversity, equity, and inclusion, we’re looking for people to help advise on how we raise and spend money to help get more kids of color to camp.
- Cultural Appropriation: This is an ongoing conversation about how we address camp’s history with practices that are culturally insensitive and move forward with our restorative efforts.
- Board of Directors: Camp Fire’s Board of Directors makes major decisions that impact the long-term sustainability, financial health, and programmatic focus of Camp Sealth and our entire organization. Reach out if you are interested in joining the board.

Shields
If you are a Camp Fire or Camp Sealth alum who made a shield hung in Rounds Hall, we have removed the shields from the walls and are in the process of identifying each one and returning them to their owners whenever possible. Whether you want your shield back, or want to return yours to our archives, please complete the form below. More information about the removal of the shields can be found here.
Donate
Donations of any amount are critical to the work we do and are greatly appreciated. Consider a one-time, recurring, or legacy gift to help keep the camp magic alive for hundreds of kids each year.
