CAMPFIRE ASHES

Ashes taken from a campfire are sprinkled into the flames of the next campfire. The next morning, when the ashes are cold, they are stirred and each scout takes some to mix with his next campfire. The lists are pooled, with dates and places of all campfires and recorded and passed on again.

"We carry our friendship with us in these ashes from other campfires with other scouts in other lands. May the joining of the dead fires with the leaping flames symbolize once more the unbroken chain that binds scouts and guides us around the world, with greetings from the scouts and the United States"

These ashes have been carried by American Scouts around the world and have come from campfires in:
