GIRLS CAMP - QUEEN OF THE ROCK!!



Girls Camp was so fun for Allie this year. She was queen of the rock, well until she had to climb down!! It was the last year for Allie and her friends they were the 6th Year YCL's.

They went several miles from camp to go repelling and found this wonderful water fall.



Jayme and Allie went down together, they were singing Disney songs to help them not scream in terror. They look so calm in the picture, but I understand a couple of minutes later the singing started!!
I like the cute bandanas, they were to keep their hair out of the ropes and not in the rocks.





Allie loved the rope swing, it is hard to balance and swing at the same time. By the time you are a 6th year you can show off to the younger girls. This was Allies last swing!! Bye rope swing!!

Allie and Kristy shared an air mattress at camp. Jayme and Holly's air mattress had a hole in it and they ended up sleeping on the floor. We bought Allie a new air mattress right before camp so she could be comfy her last year. The 6th years have YURTs all to themselves. (YURT = a hut with wooden floors and sides and a canves top. There are wide cots and places for suitcases.)





The gangs all here!! Jayme, Allie, Holly, Kristy. They got to help run girls camp this year. The Stake leaders had them do pretty much everything. There was a bit of a problem with some of the other girls so these fun girls stepped up and took over!! (this kind of frightens me, I have seen these guys in action and putting them in charge is scary!!) They loved it and had a great year.




This is Sister Pickett, she loved her girls. She gave the megaphone to the girls to wake up all the younger campers. Of course this group was a little late but always happy to sing the other campers awake. I am not sure how the leaders felt about this wonderful song fest first thing in the morning. But Allie and her group enjoyed their task!!



So many wonderful memories!!
