Soulvivor

Every year, the LDS church takes girls ages 12-18 camping for four days. This year, our ward camped at Lava Hot Springs. It was most fun I've ever had at Girl's Camp, including the years I spent at camp as a girl.

Our theme was Soulvivor
Outwork, Outsmart, Outshine

The girls were split into tribes and completed different challenges and chores together.

I was surprised there was no drama, and proud of all 15 girls as they proved to be hard workers.

SNIPE HUNT!

The Girls were a little disappointed when the snipes were revealed...

Lava Hot Springs.

I think I might of had more fun than the girls, I loved the slides!

(I have no idea how the Olympians dive and flip from these things)

I talked Meribeth (another leader) into jumping off the third platform with me, after convincing her, I chickened out... and she jumped without me. Don't worry, I looked down and saw the Bishop had it all on camera, so after the other two platforms jumped, I took the plunge!

Floating the river, this was a blast!

Last challenge at camp, eating crickets.

Winners!

I was shocked all the crickets were eaten and there weren't any left for me and two other leaders... Darn it! 

It took a little coaxing and peer pressure for a few.

A BIG thanks to Amber Hall for being an incredible camp director and putting it all together.

Bishop Hall and Jeremy Green for taking time off work to be there.

And my partners in crime, who stayed up with me the last night to teach the girls what Girl's Camp is all about... Pranks!

But in the end, I hope each of their testimonies were strengthened,
because mine certainly was.
