It was a great camp this year because we got to camp with our ward members (last year the first years were together, 2nd years, etc.) We only had 6 girls from our ward at camp, and 2 were in the YCL cabin, but we had a great time anyway. Everyone "totally bonded" as we learned to be more virtuous on the stake's "Virtue Cruise" and our ward was "anchored in virtue."(it took us a long time to come up with a ward theme, but it worked well). We had a great Camp director, Melissa Thayne, who was really prepared for the week. It was not as busy and tiring as last year, so we had some down time to hang out in our cabin and just relax. Both the groups got lost on the hike again (doesn't that happen every year?) and we got a great rainstorm on Wed. night again when Bro. Brad Christensen (Katie's uncle) came to camp for a fireside. We also had a fireside with Carmen Rasmussen Herbert, from American Idol season 2. She is married with a child now and in our stake. Her message was about standing for righteousness during her time on AI and it was very well delivered and received by the YW in our stake. She sang "Lead, kindly light" acapella for us. It was awesome. The camp was beautiful, and we always feel so grateful to have the nice cabins/pavilion/beautiful forest of Heber Valley camp.
If any of you young women would like to comment about your camp experience, that would be totally appropriate!
