Youth Activities

We've had some great youth activities recently.  We did an Easter egg night where we hid filled eggs outside of a few homes with young children (they got "egged").  After that we came back to the church and decorated sugar cookies.  

Another night we made pioneer skirts since we have a youth pioneer trek coming up this summer.  Alex and I are serving as a Ma and Pa again, so I made a skirt for me.  We just finished up our trainings as well, since we are in charge of all the Mas and Pas.  We did 5 trek presentations earlier this year and then 3 in-person trainings for Mas and Pas.  We may still do one final zoom training for those who missed their training.  

We had our fun girls night - this one involved different dare challenges, such as blowing up a balloon until it pops, doing ballet, or sorting skittles with tongs while they are being jiggled around on the plate. 

We had another Bishopric dinner for the youth, which is just a Sunday evening get together to hang out, eat breakfast food, and have a short spiritual message at a member of the Bishopric's home.  Cameron and his wife made lots of bacon and waffles for all the youth.  

A couple of other activities was indoor volleyball, which was a hoot, and a bonfire at the beach night with games, roasted marshmallows, and cinnamon rolls.  

The young women won the spring family history challenge for the 3rd time!  This one was an indexing challenge, so we did an indexing activity in March.
