In the whimsical state of Oregon, there exists a tribe of young anglers, known as the Fish Fiddlers. Now, don't let the name fool you; these kids are no ordinary fishers. They're equipped with magical fishing rods, handed down from the legendary Captain Fishbeard who used to rule the "Salty Seas of Oregon". Each day, as the sun peeks over the lush, green mountains, these kids – the Fish Fiddlers – set off on their enchanting adventure, braving the sparkling rivers that crisscross this picturesque land like silver ribbons. Now, fishing in Oregon isn’t just about casting your line and waiting. Nope, not with the Fish Fiddlers. You see, they follow the secret "fish whispers" carried by the wind, leading them to the best fishing spots. Wearing their lucky plaid shirts and rubbery, squeaky boots that squelch humorously with every step, these kids would tiptoe along the riverbanks, trying not to alert the fish of their arrival. Funny thing about these fish, they're not your garden variety goldfish. No siree! They're rainbow trout that glow under the moonlight, and salmon that leap like unicorns. Picture this: one moment you’re grappling with a mighty salmon, the next you're being gently pulled into a splashy, giggle-filled water dance! So, if you ever find yourself in Oregon, keep an ear out for the fish whispers and an eye out for the Fish Fiddlers. Who knows, you might just get invited to join their hilarious, magical fishing adventures!

Most youth organizations talk about preparing kids for the future or future leadership positions. This is great, but we believe kids and teens are leaders now. They don't need to wait for the future to shape the world. We help youth be the best 7-year-old they can be or the best 17-year-old. We guide kids and teens of all ages to boost their confidence and unlock their potential so they can thrive—where they are now. Thrive{ology} is our research-based approach to teaching every kid or teen how to be a better friend, student, son, daughter, member of society, sister, brother...today. Every Camp Fire program across the country uses Thrive{ology} to teach youth to identify sparks, develop a growth mindset, learn goal management, and take time to reflect.
