Summary:

"The Camp Fire Girls at Driftwood Heights" by Margaret Love Sanderson is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. This book is a part of the "Camp Fire Girls Series" and follows a group of young girls as they navigate their friendships, challenges, and the values associated with the Camp Fire movement. The main character, Ruth Garnier, is promoted to the prestigious position of Torch Bearer, which highlights her responsibilities and the bond she shares with her friends, also known as the Equitable Eight. At the start of the story, Ruth is celebrated for her new role as Torch Bearer during a ceremonial Council Fire, where her peers express admiration for her character and contributions. The opening chapters reveal the dynamics among Ruth, her close friends, and a new, seemingly insincere character named Blanche. Conflicts arise as Ruth contemplates inviting Blanche to their summer reunion despite the reservations of her friends, hinting at themes of acceptance, trust, and the importance of camaraderie within the Camp Fire Girls. As Ruth navigates these complexities, the groundwork is laid for their summer adventures at Driftwood Heights, promising further exploration of personal growth and friendship.
