Ella was able to enjoy girls camp at Tipis on the Guadelupe in New Braunfels, Texas the first week school was out. There were 48 young women and 12 leaders who joined in on the fun! They stayed in tipis that were air conditioned, so it wasn't too hot for them. Their camp theme was "Girl on Fire"
These were the youth camp leaders who went. Ella was one of them.
These were some of the girls in her tipi.
They got to swim in the river, kayak, and play volleyball.
They also went on a hike and got drenched with rain on the way back, which was welcomed she said as they were so hot. They did a service project at the site and painted their fence.
She even practiced and performed a couple dances for one of the evenings. They had a great group of young women. They had testimony meeting and devotionals and overall Ella said it was a great camp and was so glad she went.
The next week Cavin and Ella got to go to Stake Youth Conference for three days. Their camp theme was "Trust In The Lord." They had team building activities, dinners, and a dance.
They went to a service project and cleaned out a community center.
It was so hot both days, but the kids said they had a great time.
They really enjoy just being together and the youth in our stake are wonderful!
The last day they got to go to an adventure park and zipline, rock climb, do ropes courses, and axe throwing. They had a blast.
I'm so grateful for the leaders who put so much time into our youth. They love doing church events and I am so grateful they can be in a place where the spirit resides and they can enjoy youth who uplift them and help them choose the right.
