This pin was awarded to Emily Stanley as part of Girl Scout Troop Camp Training. Volunteers were eligible for this recognition if they were able to build and maintain a fire to cook a hot dog or marshmallow to completion using one match. This training occurred at Girl Scout Camp Torqua while it was under the jurisdiction of the independently chartered Girl Scouts of River Bluffs Council. This council was absorbed into a larger council in 2009. All branded items were discontinued for River Bluffs at that time.
