Escape to Kamas and Oak Crest

My brother's oldest daughter, Jessica, is staying with us on the weekends this summer.

She's a counselor at Oakcrest, an LDS Girl's Camp for Beehives in the Salt Lake valley. Caisa is one of her friends from BYU who's also a counselor at Oakcrest. Her family lives in Arizona, so Caisa is staying in Jordan's room, while Jessica gets the guest room.

Tonight Oakcrest is having Friends and Family Night, so we drove up to Kamas (about 55 minutes from Salt Lake) to visit the camp.

We got to visit the camp and also try out activities: obstacle course, zip line, and archery range.

I just sat in the lodge while Tangi, Dave, Braden, Bailey, and Travis tried the activities. (Who wants to haul oxygen around to all those places if I can't really participate?)

It was kind of fun, but you've got to ask Travis about how to "Scatter Sunshine all around you." It's a line from one of the skits the girl's performed for us that puts all of the camp rules into a little song number. The "scatter sunshine" line is the loudest and most obnoxious, so it's obviously Travis's favorite part of the entire night--NOT!

Hilarious!
