World for Women marks ten years in Snohomish and King counties
World for Women Inc marks its tenth anniversary serving women and children in Snohomish and North King counties. The group evolved from a shoestring operation with crisis housing and workshops to a UW agency with multiple programs, including emergency shelter, short term counseling, housing referrals, and community education through Edmonds Community College. It expands services via a cooperative with Snohomish Housing Authority and plans a quarterly newsletter while funding remains tight and community support grows.

Camp Fire history from 1910 to Pilchuck Area Council
The Camp Fire movement began in 1910 founded by Dr Halsey and Mrs Charlotte Gulick at a Maine lake camp called WoHeLo. It grew to Camp Fire Girls Inc in 1912 with 60,000 members by 1913, went coed in 1979, and the Snohomish County club started 1917. The Everett Council formed 1927, renamed Pilchuck Area Council in 1953, now serving Edmonds School District and towns such as Monroe Sultan and Gold Bar.
