I was called to serve as assistant ward camp leader this year, so I spent 5 days last week at Girl's Camp. It was held in Conifer, Colorado, it was beautiful scenery, I guess that made up for having no showers! Gross!
This is Cabin 6, the cabin that never goes to bed...

Any guesses what the theme was this year?

The girls I were over were the 3rd years, the 14 year olds. They were all nice girls and I enjoyed them. The girls were split by year rather than by ward, it worked well. We got through the week with just a handful of drama.

Our girls were the ones that brought the silly string, shaving cream, firecrackers and the very loud singing voices at 1:00 am! We were ordered to quarantine them in the cabin the last night.

What's girl's camp without skits?

These are some of the young women in our ward having a gummy worm race at our ward reunion.

Girl's camp made me nostalgic for the girls I grew up with in the Country Oaks Ward. Who can forget Sarah doing the canoe paddle during our cheer? Or Carrie doing somersaults in the lake? Or picking leeches off our legs? I taught the camp the "Weinie Man" song, one of our favorites from Lake Lyman.
So I left with no mosquito bites, but dead tired. My cabin stayed up until 2:00 am for the first 3 nights, and then 4:30 am the last night!
