Over the perfectly beautiful summer weekend, the
girls enjoyed the cruise ship theme when they visited Port Faith, where they were spiritually uplifted during a devotional led by Caroline Bown, then had "the faith to leave the harbor" in paddle boats. In Divine Nature Bay, each girl wrote a message in a bottle to herself, then each designed her own canvas tote bag. On Individual Worth and Knowledge Pier, the young women were invited to personalize a journal for their use. Relaxing in the Choice and Accountability Spa, nails and toes were prettied up. Club Integrity and Virtue took the young women on a hike where they enjoyed the beauty of nature in Zion Canyon. And, finally, on the Dock of Good Works, the girls took part in a mini-service project when they cleaned up the campground.
Thanks to recently returned missionary Dakota Bair for sharing his thoughts on the Atonement, his love for the Savior and his testimony during an evening fireside … to our priesthood leaders Bishop Mike Bair, Brothers Kanenwisher, Schall, Wilkes, and Erskine for their help in many ways; to Jake and Annie Green for the loan of their truck and to the Bair family for providing dinner for our hungry campers on Friday night.
And, to quote Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, who understands the sacrifice of YW leaders: "I am grateful for Young Women leaders who go to girls camp and, without shampoo, showers, or mascara, turn smoky, campfire testimony meetings into some of the most riveting spiritual experiences those girls—or those leaders—will experience in their lifetime."(October 2010 General Conference)
