Our Camp Fire Alaska Farmer's Market was a hit once again! This year's market included everything from currants to eggs, indoor plant cuttings, baked goods, fresh vegetables, and even local honey. We love how creative our staff is and are always excited to see the gifts they contribute to the market each year. The market raises important funds for our annual United Way campaign and this year more than $1500 was raised! 

Did you know September 18th is a Camp Fire holiday? Oh yeah! Rice Krispie Day!

We held our ??th Annual Rice Krispie Day Bake-Off (because at this point, it’s just a time old tradition!)

We may have only had one entry…but WOW was it one of the best creations we’ve ever tasted! Congrats to our winner, Maddie, our Development Coordinator! Even though our entry turnout was low, we had over 20 voters. Now, on to getting those 20 voters to become entries next year…
