Amber Williams, Site Instructor
This will be my first year with Camp Fire Columbia and I’m really excited to be working with such a great organization! I’ve been working with kids for 4 years now and it’s been such a rewarding experience. Prior to this school year I was working in the Evergreen School District in Vancouver, WA with elementary kids. Their youthful ways keep me on my toes and my days interesting! The majority of my experience has been with Portland Public Schools and I’m thrilled to be back in the community this school year with Camp Fire! |

Picture of the Month
October late start: James leading the kids in making their own kooky masks. We had Frankenstein, aliens, ninjas, princesses, vampires, monsters, critters, jack-o-lanterns, and more!
