Standing here at the McNair Campfire, it’s easy to picture the past coming alive. The campfire circle, nestled in a serene spot, was built in 1961. It stands on the land that was originally purchased in 1864 by John Crowther for a farm. This farm, with its orchards and gardens, was a place of peace and tranquility. You can almost hear the gentle rustle of leaves in the old apple trees or the soothing sound of a stream moving through the valley. The McNair Campfire was built in honor of Harold Nelson, a man who spent many weekends and holidays at Brookfield. Nelson was a huge supporter of Scouting, and his friendships with the Crowther family were instrumental in their decision to bequeath the land to scouting. The campfire is a place where scouts and other groups can come together, gather around the fire, and create memories. It’s a place where the joys of the outdoors can be shared and the spirit of adventure can be cherished.
