520 _a"The Camp Fire Girls at Sunrise Hill" by Margaret Vandercook is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Betty Ashton, a girl who feels stifled by the limitations placed on young women and yearns for something new and exciting. Her life changes with the arrival of Esther Clark, a girl from an orphan asylum who becomes her companion and introduces her to the idea of the Camp Fire Girls — a group that encourages girls to be adventurous, learn useful skills, and find their identities. The opening of the story presents Betty Ashton in her old family home, feeling frustrated and longing for more autonomy and purpose in her life. After ringing for the maid without success, she discovers Esther in a previously vacant room, singing a beautiful song. Their encounter leads to a mix of emotions for Betty, including irritation and curiosity. As they get to know each other, Betty’s preconceived notions about status and companionship begin to evolve. The text sets the stage for their friendship and reveals themes of self-discovery, community, and the empowerment of girls through active participation in meaningful pursuits.
