Activity Days Day Camp
Emily got to spend the day at Camp Kiesel with the Activity Days girls on Tuesday. She was so excited about going that she was even happy and cooperative when I woke her up at 6:15. She had loads of fun. She got to shoot a BB gun and a bow and arrow (which was tricky with her skinny little arms). No bullseyes for her; she was just happy that she got one arrow to hit the hay bales. They had to skip the obstacle course and the nature walk because everything was muddy from the rain, but they went to some nature classes, took the canoes out, and made leather sheriff badges for the craft. I think her favorite part of the day was spending her money at the trading post. She bought a rabbit pelt, a rabbit foot keychain, and a gem bracelet.
I had a surprisingly hard time sending her off for the day. She has great leaders, but it was still weird not to go with her. I’m kind of hoping that they call me to be a Young Women leader before my girls start going to girls’ camp. Sending her away for a whole week might be more than I am up for.

i hope i get called to be in young women's with my girls, also. what an awesome time to be in that calling. so impressive that you posted about this. maybe i should follow in your footsteps and do the same.
I'll be sure to remember to let the bishop know you want to be the girls camp director from 2015 all the way to 2019. He'll be thrilled to hear it!
Claudy, hopefully your comment was directed to Amity. I didn't say anything about girls camp director. I was thinking more along the lines of beehive advisor. :)
Be careful what you wish for.
I agree be careful what you wish for, but it would be fun to go with and be with your kids while they do those activities.
