THE UNITY BLAZE CERTIFICATION
What You'll Learn
  • Understand Barriers to Participation: We'll explore the factors that prevent folks from enjoying the outdoors, including fear, lack of knowledge, and a lack of welcoming gestures.
  • Move Beyond Access: We'll differentiate between physical access to outdoor spaces and the importance of feeling comfortable and welcome.
  • Recognize the Impact of Exclusion: We'll analyze the negative consequences of a limited outdoor participant base, including public health risks and the potential decline of the outdoor recreation industry.
  • Embrace the Spirit of Unity Blaze: We'll delve into the meaning of the Unity Blaze symbol, which signifies "You are Invited and Welcomed." This concept emphasizes the importance of creating a culture of unity within the outdoor community.
  • Implement Strategies for Growth: We'll equip you with actionable strategies to increase participation in the outdoors. This includes focusing on family engagement and fostering a sense of belonging through welcoming experiences.
THE UNITY BLAZE

The Unity Blaze is the campfire at the heart of our logo. It represents the oldest form of light, heat, cooking, safety, comfort and community.

Since ancient times, people have gathered around fires for protection, nourishment, and warmth, and to share stories, thoughts, hopes, and dreams. Black Folks Camp Too has elevated the Unity Blaze as a symbol of Unity in the Outdoor Community and BEYOND.

It means "You are Invited and Welcomed" — your race, age, religion, gender and abilities are recognized and respected.

We are changing the world... one campfire at a time, Folks.
