The Last of the Young Women

The summer has gone by so fast!  It's hard to believe that this week is the last week of the Young Women.  Yesterday we did our last training of the leaders for running the low courses.  We are starting to feel a little melancholy.

Next week we will have families all week, and the week after, we begin the staining of the cabins.  This year they have assigned us all of camp Rebecca and Ester, the missionary cabins, and the laundry facility.  This is more than we have ever done before, I guess we got done too fast last year.  Ha! Ha!

Last week Steve was helping on the wall, making sure everything was safe.  Since it has been so hot, the girls never have sweatshirts and thus, don't have anything to help the last girl over the wall.  Steve decided to put his sweatshirt on the course, and the girls did ask if they could use it.  The girls from above held it down for the girl below.  She grabbed on and only got about 12 inches off the ground when "rip!" the sleeve came off.  Pretty funny!  I guess that didn't work.

 We had a little rain and some lightning.  Here is our team waiting for the course to restart.  We have to stand down for 30 minutes after the last sighting of lightning.
