Girls Camp 2010 "Oh The Places We'll Go"

This year was Lindsay's final year of Girls Camp. She has officially completed all 6 years and was a JC at last. It's tradition that the stake leaders take the JC's surfing the very first day of camp before all other campers arrive. SOOOO ... this was Lindsay's opportunity to learn a new skill, and she did great !









After surfing in the morning we finally arrived at Camp Metoche in Angeles Oaks at about 2 pm. The girls had a lot to do but most importantly was making the KIT costumes ( a KIT is the level right before a JC and basically a KIT becomes a JC's servant for the week of camp)












The week was off to a great start ... Lindsay and her other JC's bonded while they learned to get along, create skits, roll call, and run camp the way that only 16 year old girls can do ...









On Friday all of the girls got to go to the lake for some fun boating and sun. The weather was a lil' cold and windy but the girls had a blast !











After the Lake follows the traditional unforgettable food fight between the JC's and the KIT's. It's such a mess, but the girls have a blast. They spend about 10 minutes throwing chocolate pudding, whipped creme, chocolate syrup, and silly string. They follow up with a dip in the cold cold river to wash off. As always, the food fight was a success ... EVERY girl managed to be covered completely !












Saturday morning camp finally came to an end. Lindsay worked so hard this past week, and I am so proud of her. She grew in the Gospel which is what every Mom craves and prays for when it comes to our children. We got a chance for some Mom and Daughter bonding Which by far is the highlight for me every time we go. And Lindsay created memories she will ALWAYS have.






This was Lindsay's PSS group and a wonderful group of girls



Finally it was time to hand off the JC whistle to her KIT Cassandra.
