Girls camp EVERYTHING part 1, monday

Girls camp was the best time ever.
Girls camp was from July 6- July 10. We would leave monday morning and come back friday at noon.
We were supposed to meet at the stake centeron monday morning at 7 a.m. It was stakewide so there were a lot of girls.
Our camp was at Heber Valley Girls Camp and we had cabins!!! I remember that as we waited for the buses we were SOOOOOO exited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When we got there we went to the ampitheater and they told as the rules and we were asigned to our cabins. They gave us little songbooks that had all the songs that we would sing at girls camp, and a schedule in the back.
On monday, the schedule went like this.
Lunch 12:00-1:00
Make your songbook pouches(mandatory craft) 1:00-1:30
certification at level campfire ring 1:30-3:00
All things bright and beautiful(speaker) 3:00-4:00
chores then free time 4:00-5:30
Dinner 5:30-7:00
skit presentations 7:00-8:00
smores at level camfire ring 8:00-9:00


It was really cool how they had us make our songbook pouches. They had strips of this very thick non-sticky vinyl, and they had us tape it and decorate it with Duct Tape. They had every color. For certification, we had the YCL's go from cabin to cabin and teach the things that they were assigned to. Then for the remaining time, we had skit practice. Each level was assigned to do 2 skits.
The speaker was just telling us how to recognise various plants and animals.
Each cabin was assigned a chore to do each day. When that chore was done, you had free time. You could nap, do that day's craft, shop, eat snacks, or just hang out with your cabin and your friends.
For the meals, we did not have to prepare them. We had Kitchen Ladies and they would make all of our meals. They made REALLY good meals.
For our skit presentations, we were to do them in front of everybody.
That was monday.
I will tell you about Tuesday SOON.
