Thing 1 and Thing 2

So two weeks ago (June 25-30) I was at Girls Camp, not as a young woman, but as Staff. Morgan and I were called to help at the Rock Wall. We  were brought up to camp on Monday morning around 8:00 am, and had 2-3 hours to kill before the YC's and YL's were suppose to come up. We were told to be on our best behavior, and to help anyone who needed help. So we did, but by doing so we were given the nicknames "Thing 1 and Thing 2", given to us by Brother V. Originally we were called "Thing 1 and Thing 2" just by Brother V, but by the end of the week the other staff were calling us "Thing 1 and Thing 2".


 Rock Wall was fun, but nothing exciting really happened, well except for the time when Morgan made it over the box!!

As a result for making it up the box, she was able to sign her name anywhere she wanted, so she chose a place where everyone could see it. She even left her signature Toy Story Alien, and even added a side note, "with Megan Colborn :)". My purpose, as belayer, is to make sure the rope is both secured to the harness as well as tight when the climber is climbing up the wall. So without me, she wouldn't have accomplished her goal of going up the box.

We also had an Humanitarian project at Camp. The Goal was to make 100 Monkeys for 100 Patients, we exceeded that goal! Below are some pictures of the adorable monkeys.

 So we had a terrific year at camp, and it was exciting to come back to celebrate the 100th year of YW/Girls Camp, and spend one last week at camp with my mom and younger sisters!
