Alegra was asked to talked today (Sunday). After we got home from girls camp she wrote a quick recap of our time. Below is the talk she shared in Sacrament meeting. I had to take a picture because she looked so tiny up there!
Good Morning, my name is Alegra Frye. Today I’m going to speak about Girls Camp. We went to Girls Camp this past Friday and Saturday. On Friday we met at Carrie’s house and then went Rock Climbing in Big Cottonwood Canyon. It was my first-time rock climbing and it was a good opportunity to step out of my comfort zone. After rock climbing we went up to the Weavers Cabin to have lunch and set up our sleeping gear in the big tepee in the back yard. We played some fun team building games. Then the leaders introduced the theme of the camp: which was metamorphosis and our symbol for camp was a butterfly. Ann talked about how we as young women have the opportunity to change and grow into the young women our Heavenly Father has created. We did lots of activities throughout camp to help us think about the goals and ideas to help us reach our full potential. After dinner Friday night we got to canoe around Silverfork lake. When we got back to the cabin we had a little talent show and fireside. The bishop and his wife were able to join us. Bishop Sorenson talked to us about how we are all of Great Worth. Saturday morning, we went on a beautiful hike up to a lake. At the lake we all had some quiet time to reflect on ourselves and how we want to grow ourselves. After the hike we had lunch and some free time. Before we left camp, the leaders planned an activity. We did a trust walk with blindfolds into a pretend cave. In the cave, Ann talked about a life changing experience she had. In the cave we got to reflect on what is important in our lives if we were to be stuck in the cave. The cave ended up being Ann’s garage, but it made be me think about how we can’t take our family and friends for granted. Overall, I am so lucky I got to experience girls camp. Girls camp helped me realize that I want to stay close to my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I say these things, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen
