I am our ward camp leader and this year was my 3rd year. It's amazing how much less stressful it is when it's not the first time you've been to camp since you were a girl. Katie was a 5th year, or 1st year Youth Camp Leader and Caroline was a 3rd year this year. It is fun to be there with them. This picture is Katie on the confidence course. You have to close your eyes and let your guides lead you with verbal directions and not fall, hopefully.
Here's Caroline (plaid shirt on left side) and half the group of girls on the course. It's pretty scary up there actually.
We had a lot of fun taking pictures.
Cuties!
Brinnan, Sarah and Katie in their hats.
Value color fires are always a big hit. We throw in a copper pipe stuffed with a piece of garden hose and the colors go crazy.
Waterfront was supposed to be mostly dry boats this year because it wasn't really warm but by the end everyone was splashing it up!
Caroline and her buds Brinnan and Melanie!
Heather and Caroline
Aubree and Katie
The weather was...wet at times. Mostly when we were about to eat a meal. So, three times a day (at least) we grabbed all of the chairs, threw them under the awning and stood around to eat. Here's Aubree, Katie, me and Nelson up at camp for Bishopric night crammed underneath so we don't get soaked. This particular storm brought hail and a river running through our camp. It was sooo muddy!
Caroline and others at the other side of the tent getting food. We literally ate standing up.
The last morning we went on a sunrise hike. Katie sang a duet with her friend Nicole for the flag ceremony. It was pretty cool.
Here are my 5 YCL's this year. They did a fantastic job and made camp great for everyone!
Paper plate awards from the YCL's. We have a great group of girls and everyone got along so well and had a wonderful time. Camp is my life for quite some time before we get there so it's always such a huge relief when things work out and it's all over. Whew!
