The build-up to the Sixth Firecrafter Fall Frenzy "The Great Flame Race" was intense. Some of Firecrafter's finest youth had been preparing for a long time to go head to head at this battle at Camp Belzer. Evan "The Storm" Bobo claimed he would bring the storm and dominate the competition, while the Chief elect, Cody Donahue was prepping for a huge takeover. Team Nim Tanteyunk was determined to re-gain their title as the Golden Teepee champions, while Team TMNF was certain they would defend their 2009 upset.

Since 1920, the Mystic Fire has been a blaze in the hearts of over 10,000 members. The organization is concluding its 90th year and is excited for the many more years the fire will burn. In the over 90 years of existence, there have been many individuals who have made the program what it is today. Foundations were built by several influential leaders and the traditions have been carried on by countless outstanding Firecrafters.

Firecrafter had 229 new members hike Firecrafter Hill on August 14th. This makes the grand total for 2010, 315 new Firecrafters! Congratulations to all on a great season. We also congratulate our newly elected officers - Chief Cody, Vice Chief Joseph, Secretary Johnny, and Treasurer Drew!
