OK~ so, I was called as Camp Director for our ward's Young Women's Camp this year and I'm freaking out a little bit. I mean, I haven't been to girl's camp since I was 18 years old. That was a LIFETIME ago. The idea of thinking of stuff to talk to girls 12-18 years old about literally freaks me out. I could tell you anything about the Arizona Diamondbacks, or the Suns, or little league, and I know tons of stuff about dirt and bugs (which may come in quite handy at camp), Transformers, Harry Potter, and The Backyardigans or Diego, but I'm in the dark about teenage girls.Our theme is
Joy In The Journey
Our scriptual reference is Phillipians 4:13--I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me
I have to come up with a camp name by Sunday. No pressure...just SUNDAY which is 5 days away, and I have to PRESENT it...cutely, with frills. I'm sooooooooo not cut out for this job. I can practically see you all nodding your heads in agreement, because I'm pretty much a no-frills (translation: BORING) person. I don't think I can do this.
So here's the deal...
I need help. Nope...I'm not too proud to ask for it, so let the opinions fly. Our camp name is supposed to be something within the "journey" theme. It can be transportation, or anything that has to do with a journey. So if any of you have a suggestion (or twelve) please send them my way. I could really use your help and creativity!!!!
And while you're at it, please remember to pray for me...
I'm gonna need it!!!!!!

Ya, good luck with that. That is why I have a camp director. She comes to me with a few good idea's and I pick one. One place you might go is jennysmith.net, she has some ideas. Sorry I haven't done anything with that type of theme. We are doing camp "whoville" - hopefully use some Dr. s. but also tie it into having the girls find out who they are. I think it will be quit fun. Anyway sorry I am no help.
