Camp Spiritfire (formerly Service Summer Camp) was the brainchild of three A.A. friends, passionate about service work and who had a dream to make it engaging and exciting for everyone. 

One night in 2017, after seeing a flyer for a retreat posted at a community center, one of them excitedly called the others with an idea - what about summer camp?! The nostalgia for a time when they could lose (or find) themselves in nature, play, discovery, and connection with others?  

Over two successful camp weekends, the counselors realized in 2019 that the experience was much more than service - all three legacies (recovery, unity and service) are necessary for lasting and meaningful sobriety. Taking inspiration from the primary purpose of camp - to allow campers to feel invigorated, engaged, and fired up around recovery and service, Service Summer Camp became Camp Spiritfire!

Fees on Bonfire are in the spirit of self-support - the bulk covers the cost of making the item and anything above the base (typically a buck or two) goes to the Jon C "Pinecone" (one of the co-founders) scholarship fund to help those who can't afford it come to camp.

We're so grateful you found us, and we hope you'll join us for an incredible event!
