CFG014aDescription
The Camp Fire Girls was incorporated in 1912. The first ideal of the organization was to "Seek Beauty," which is what happened in Los Gatos in 1927 when the girls of the "Wawataissa" group, under the direction of Gladys Record, decided to reclaim Fairview Plaza. The one-quarter acre park had been donated to the town by Frank McCullough, who arrived in Los Gatos in 1880 and purchased 166 acres for $5,000. The project soon involved much of the community.
