Girl's Camp 2018 - The Beads

I had a great time coming up with beads for Girl's Camp this year.  The Alice in Wonderland theme was a lot of fun to work with.    Some of the beads were ordered off the internet, some were made using Fimo clay, and some were hand painted.  Here are a few of the beads...

Camp Kick-Off Bead

Camp Attendance Bead

On Time Bead

Sunrise Hike Bead

"Class Beads"

There was a change in the camp program this year concerning the certification requirements the girls were originally encouraged to complete.  We used to give out small colored wooden beads as they completed each requirement in their given year at camp.  We no longer have the required certification, but we opted to still have classes the girls could attend to learn important skills.  Of course, this gave a challenge for me to come up with an appropriate bead for each class–a little more work than just a small colored bead!

I figured that when you are trained, you unlock some of the many blessings that 

come with serving at girl's camp.

As a leader of girls, they strive to be a positive example and reflect good values.
