Around the fire

From 2005 to 2020, 51 volunteers pitched a tent at this fire with a blog of their own. Some kept the fire going for a season, some for a decade, and every one of them is still sitting around it.

Did you know? In 2012, 30 blogs were posting at the same time, the biggest crowd the fire ever had.

The short version

The first blog here, Scouting Stories, started in 2005. The circle grew through the late 2000s and was biggest in 2012, with 30 blogs posting. When Scouters moved on to new platforms, their 42 blogs stayed right here at the fire for you to read. 9 blogs are still adding posts in 2020.

Bloggers with at least one post, each year. Select a bar to open that year.
