Last week I had the opportunity of going to Jeremiah Johnson's Camp up Hobble Creek Canyon for a day camp the Activity Day girls were able to go to. I am a leader for the 8&9 year old girls and this was so much fun for them. It gave them a chance to feel a little special like the scouts and do something bigger like them. The camp had these fun little old time buildings set up...pretty fun.
It was like 5 hours long full of activities. First, they started out doing a flag ceremony, then we did a craft in which we made a rope-knotted bracelet. The next rotation, the girl got to make and decorate little wooden boats for a rain gutter regatta.
They shot BB Guns
They got all wet paddling the boat. This was great for team work and a good work out for their arms :)
And the girls got to learn how to tie knots. Some were a little more complicated than they can handle but they had fun trying.
For all these activities they participated in they were able to get a bead for a necklace, which they loved. I love being a part of Activity Days and seeing these girls grow up physically as well as spiritually, and seeing how they do a lot of fellowshipping and invite their friends to the activities!
Is that place free to get into? The buildings all look so cute!
