Summary |
"Campfire Girls' Outing; Or, Ethel Hollister's Second Summer in Camp" by Stella M. Francis is a fictional work likely written in the early 20th century. The story continues the adventures of Ethel Hollister, focusing on her experiences at Camp Fire Girls and the profound changes she undergoes as she interacts with her peers and family. Central themes include friendship, personal growth, and the impact of societal expectations on young women. The opening portion of the text introduces Ethel Hollister, who has recently returned to the Camp Fire Girls after a transformative previous summer marked by her developing character and values. Readers learn about Ethel's family dynamics, particularly her mother's ambitions for her daughter to marry well and live in high society, contrasting sharply with Ethel's newfound desires for authenticity and meaningful connections. The narrative sets the stage for Ethel's reconnection with friends as she prepares for camp, alongside the implications of societal pressures and the relationships she has fostered, including her evolving views toward her Camp Fire peers and a life dedicated to service and community.
