Girls Camp 2014

at Treasure Mountain

Day 1:  To rescue like the Savior, your mission today is to be humble.

Leaders and 6th year YCL's arrive and set up camp.  Later the YCL did Challenge Course activities and night zip-lining.

Day 2:  To rescue like the Savior, your mission today is to be kind.

Wards arrived at camp and settled in.  In the evening we had leader skits.  Ours was a spoof on Jimmy Fallon's "eww" skit - going over some of the important rules at camp.  Too funny!

Day 3:  To rescue like the Savior, your mission today is to be of service.

Today was our rotations to Challenge Course, Humanitarian Project, and Certification.

In the middle of the day a huge storm rolled in, the rain poured down and we had lots of thunder and lightning.  Lightning was actually striking trees in camp so the girls had to be in "lock down" and remain in their yurts or the pavilion.  Needless to say half of the days activities were canceled.

Day 4:  To rescue like the Savior, your mission today is to have courage.
Today was hike day for all the levels.  Here is a picture of Susie's level 3 hike.  We were so thankful the rain stopped long enough for each group to do their hike - as the last group was returning the rain started up again!

Day 4:  To rescue like the Savior, your mission today is to be a good listener.
Today was Especially For Camp - we had three speakers and the girls rotated by levels to each one.  Our topics were:  Don't Do Dumb Things With Your Smart Phone,  How to Rescue, and Choosing Happiness.  In the evening it was Bishop's Night and Ward Testimony Meeting - always one of the best nights at camp!

Day 5:  To rescue like the Savior, your mission today is be selfless.
Today we had our closing ceremony and then the wards did capers and packed up to head home!

P.S. My favorite part of camp was hanging out with this girl!
