Okay, so I just got back from Girls' Camp, and it was awesome! I usually am not a big camper/outdoors-y person because I HATE bugs, but it was so much fun! You know, despite the fact I became a mosquito feast...
The first Day we got there all the YCL's sang to us, and helped us set up camp. Each Ward has their own camp site, and since our YCL's didn't count, we had a VERY samll camp! Only three people! We only had three tents! Me, Abi, and Morgan were all in one, and our leaders Sister Elderedge and Sister House, slept in one. The other one was our like closet/dressing room.
When we finished setting up, we had to get in our unit ID costumes, and make our flag. The theme for camp this year was "We can Change the World" so all the wards were some magical type being. We were the Galaxy Gals, and had really cool sparkly capes! We wore white sunglasses that we covered in stars, and black rubber gloves. We put our hair up in supppperrrrrrr high ponies, and put on sparkly silver lipstick! We looked sooooo cool!
My favorite part about Girl's Camp was the campfires, because we sang really funny songs, and did hilarious skits! My favorite was the "Peeta Puppet Pals". I also really liked doing crafts, because we made really cute button rings, head-bands, bracelets, and frames made out of world maps! I even made a map frame for all the YCL's in my ward! They really liked them!
Also, there was a lightening storm the night we were supposed to night hike, so we had to do it indoors. When we went back to our camp it was still going on so the Preisthood had to go to all the camp sites, to everyone to go to the dining hall to sleep. We all quickly grabbed our sleeping bags and ran across the field. Abi like bolted, and I was crying,laughing,and screaming at the same time.
When we got inside the dining hall, everyone had to lay out there sleeping bags on the floor. Since we had to quickly grab our things ablot of the girls didn't have pajamas and had to sleep in their night hike clothes. But it was fun, because the kitchen staff made us hot chocolate and put "Despical Me" On for us.
The last day we had to wake up really early to clean up. I was sad to leave but also happy I could finally sleep in a bugless bed, and use my phone!
Overall it was a very fun and spirtual experience, and I can't wait to go again!
