Young Women's Camp - Marissa is a 4th year

Monday to Friday Marissa and Mommy were at Young Women's Camp.  This year it was held at the same place as last year, Camp Crescendo Lion's Camp.


Monday - Marissa arrived at the Crestwood Stake Center at 6:30 am to meet the other 4th Years girls (24 in total) to head out on their 12 mile hike!  They were transported to Bernheim Forest (right where Devon and Robert were) for their hike and overnight camping.  The girls hiked for 12 miles - 7 miles longer than the required 5 miles.  They hiked all day with a day pack and sleeping bag.  Sweet dreams Marissa.



On the other side of the mountain (really a hill) Mommy was with Sister Vicki Johnson, Camp Director and the YCC's getting camp ready for the campers.  We made door signs, bed signs for absolutely every girl coming to camp, YCC assignments, reviewed the Faith walk, Personal Progress, and the YCC skit.  That evening after the Faith walk, Vicki and I treated the girls to an hour and a half at the pool.  AWESOME!

Tuesday - preparations, registration, campers arrive, lunch, field day, dinner, speaker - Kari McOmber, faith walk, ward devotional and lights out


Wednesday - Rise and Shout " oops".  4th Years very tired, breakfast, certification, personal progress, lunch, fun classes - extra pool time, dinner, speaker - Rick Diamond, ward devotionals and lights out.
