Psych Party 2011

I am the Stake Camp Director. For all my non-LDS friends - this means that I am in charge of a week long girls camp in the summer for girls ages 12-18. This calling consumes my life sometimes. The past few months I have been working like crazy for our Psych Party. We introduced the theme to the girls and leaders of the stake with a silly skit, showed a fun video of last year's girls camp, sang songs, ate yummy food, did a little certifying, and got organized. It was TOO much work, but I think that it went well. Thanks to my all my assistants....I could not have pulled this off without you!

Camp & Beads

I am the stake camp director for my church. For all my non-LDS friends this means I am in charge of a week long camp in the mountains for girls ages 12-18. It is an enormous job!!!! Anyways, I wanted the girls to earn beads for the different things they participated in (this is what my stake in Arizona did and it was so much fun). By the end of camp they would have a momento of their week and hopefully remember all the things they experienced. I also wanted them to have a necklace that would hold their daily schedule. If you look at the necklace on the left you can see the plastic protector that held their schedule. It helped SO much! All the girls always knew where they were supposed to be. Thanks to Jillaire McMillian and her hard work to get the schedule cards personalized for each level.....it was so much work and she did an outstanding job.

I spent months shopping, coming up with ideas, and making beads. I could NOT have accomplished this without AKEMI WHITELEY!!! She took my vision and worked tirelessly to create so many cute beads........she is amazing.

Here is what my front room looked like ALL summer! Girls Camp took over my life!!!!!!

Camp Psych Party

Part of the reason I have not blogged in such a long time is I spend most of my free time working on girls camp. Here are some random pictures from the 1st Annual Camp Psych Party. I was really bad about taking pictures...oh well.

We watched a slideshow (see previous post), watched 2 skits, did certification, sang camp songs, & ate yummy treats. Jill & Chrysta as Stacy and Corrine from the special camp edition of What Not to Wear to Camp

Psyched for Girls Camp

I am the new Stake Camp Director and here is the video I made for the girls so they would get excited for camp. I showed it to them during our Camp Psych Party.
