Camp Fire Girls began in 1910 as a youth development organization for girls. Today the organization has both boys and girls and is called Camp Fire USA. Boys were first included in 1975.
The Camp Fire greeting “Wo-He-Lo” comes from the first two letters of the words, work, health and love.

I love it. I would love this symbol on my grave some day. I have been a member now almost 50 years and I am impressed it was so important to someone else to place this original symbol on one’s grave.
