This was a great camp done to the the experience of our Mormon Pioneers. Boys came up with dress appropriate to the time and experienced many of the same types of experiences. Amid the numerous rains showers on Friday everyone still had a good time and getting a little wet did not seem to bother anyone. Some of the girls were even able to get the guys to get into some line dancing later on in the evening.
On Saturday the boys got up for a 5:00am hike (Zion's Camp) and that, with out breakfast, trying to match some of the hardships our pioneer ancestors went though. They put on the play they had practiced after lunch. The food was great and having everyone bring a pail of cookies for the snack pool provided a sweet variety.
