Absolutely Incredible Kid Day

[David Sandusky]

Camp Fire USA for nearly a century has been providing fun and safe educational programs designed to build caring, confident youth and future leaders. In schools, summer camps and community clubs our goal is to empower children and youth to embrace the value of hard work, healthy choices and love and respect for self, others and community.

Each year we celebrate our signature event, “Absolutely Incredible Kid Day.” The March 20, 2008 event urges adults to send a note of encouragement to a child – their own or others – telling them why they’re “absolutely incredible.” Nationally, more than 500 million letters have been sent in the past 12 years!

Colorado Governor Bill Ritter has proclaimed March 20, 2008 as “Absolutely Incredible Kid Day” in our state.

It’s so easy, and so powerful! People interested in writing letters of encouragement can visit our Central Rockies website, www.campfirerockies.org, and click on the “Absolutely” link at the top. Then print our special “Absolutely” stationary, write the letter, mail it off and then celebrate your dedication to empowering our community’s youth: 25% of our population, 100% of our future!

good post David. A program like this is refreshing because usually kids are being reprimanded for mistakes and bad behavior...it's good to receive a compliment through the mail.
