Girls Camp

Just a little update- I was called to be a camp director with my Aunt Jenny and camp was this week at Meeks Cabin Dam. It was a really fun time getting to know the girls better and having fun with them. It was a different experience being a leader but it was fun. Thurday night after we had did our flag pole, we looked up into the sky and saw smoke billowing up out of the trees. At first I didn't really think anything of it until I noticed how close it was. We went back to our camp and we broke down our camp in 6 minutes and 53 seconds, all except the tents because those could be easily replaced. This was tough for me because I was in charge of 8 girls and making sure they were safe. We left and then they later evacuated the whole camp. We knew it was close but we later found out that it was about 3/4 of a mile away from our camp. It was a very trying experience and something I will never forget. I am just so thankful that everyone was able to get out safely before the fire got too close!
