Everyone in our family was so excited about YW Camp. This year Jessica would be a Youth Camp Counselor (YCC) and it would be Marissa's first year at camp. Jessica was selected to be the YCC that worked with the 1st years - how awesome is that. Jessica and Marissa get to be with each other.

We drove theYCC's to camp on Monday afternoon. They set up camp and prepared for everyone coming the next morning. Marissa and her unit left for camp at 7:30 AM on Tuesday. They picked a great camp site and were all excited to be there.

While there, they set up camp, ate, made a camp fire, cooked smores, went swimming, did crafts, Bo-Tai, and certification.

Unfortunately, Wednesday evening the rain came -hard! Loud! and Electric! It was a terrible thunderstorm that essentially washed them out of camp. Marissa woke up to 2" of water inside her tent. Thank goodness she slept on an air mattress.
