Message from the Chairman ofthe Board and President/CEO
2012 Camp FireCouncil Recognition
On behalf of the board of directors, we are pleased to present the council's 2012 Annual Report. In addition to �nancial information and a listing of Camp Fire's generous donors, the report highlights children, youth and child care professionals who participated in Camp Fire programs.
It has been a year of growth both at First Texas and National Camp Fire. A signi�cant change has been the introduction of a new national brand. This summer, after extensive market research, Camp Fire introduced a new logo and brand, as well as the Promise, which serves as the organization’s new mission statement. The new theme line, “Light the �re within” re�ects key concepts of the Camp Fire movement: discovery, self-expression, inclusivity, and the opportunity for youth to �nd their “spark.”
At First Texas, the capital campaign to renovate and update Camp El Tesoro achieved a major milestone with completion of the new 15,400 sq. foot covered Equestrian Center, and construction was begun on El Tesoro's new dining hall complex which is scheduled to welcome 2013 summer campers.
At year end, the Campaign for El Tesoro steering committee, chaired by Tod Miller, reported that funding had been secured for four duplex cabins, as well as Phase II projects including re-purposing the Main Lodge, a new entrance, roads and low water crossing. A total of $7.7 million has been raised to date from numerous individuals, corporations and foundations who believe in the value of camp and outdoor education for children and youth.
Open to everyone and led by professional, caring adults using proven methods, Camp Fire First Texas continues to help children and youth develop their abilities and identify their passion and “sparks.” We appreciate Camp Fire’s generous donors, partners and volunteers and their commitment to the First Texas Council’s mission to “Light the �re within.”
The Fort Worth Business Press named Ann Sheets as CFO of the Year - Nonpro�ts at its luncheon and awards ceremony on January 25.
Camp Fire board member Lauri Curtis Hadobas was recognized by the Fort Worth Business Press at its "Great Women of Texas" dinner on November 7 at the Fort Worth Club.
Pam and Reed Pigman were honored for their contributions to Camp Fire First Texas on November 7 at the National Philanthropy Day 32nd Annual Awards Ceremony at the Omni Hotel.

Our PromiseYoung people want to
shape the world.
Camp Fire provides theopportunity to �nd their spark, lift their voice, and
discover who they are.
In Camp Fire, it begins now.
Light the �re within
2012 Council Highlights The new 15,400 sq. foot Equestrian Center, the �rst project of Phase 1 of the Capital Campaign, was completed. The center features a 12,000 sq. foot covered riding arena with bleachers, stalls, restrooms, o�ce, tack area and feed storage.
By 2012 year end, contributions to Camp Fire's $10.7 million capital campaign to renovate Camp El Tesoro totaled $7.7 million.
First Texas Council was selected as one of ten Camp Fire councils in the nation for a 3-year pilot for THRIVE, a research-based youth development curriculum that will re�ect the Camp Fire focus.
Camp Fire expanded its After School Program to Fort Worth ISD’s Charles E. Nash Elementary School.
The sta� of the Child Development Center, which serves more than 80 infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers, participated in Connect4Success, Camp Fire’s research-based social-emotional development curriculum.
Light the �re within
through caring leaders.
