Girl's Camp
Dave's First trip to Girl's Camp...He was surprised, to say the least at some of the Girl's camp Events.....
( our buddies Zoila and Jared .....aka Sister Schank & Bishop Schank w/ Bishop & Sister Hoopes)
The Buckeye 2nd ward, Young Women and leaders, and Bishop and Brother Gable ( 1st Counselor to Dave), Sister Rashedi, Sister Gable, Sister Gassaway
I didn't get to go to camp this year despite being put into the YW program Last fall. I was called to be an advisor in the YW program, and This summer I was called to be the First Counselor in the YW program and I am hoping I get to the next time we have camp. It is such an inspired program!
