At Young Women camp you learn skills in first aid, safety, sanitation, and survival. Review these teachings in your Young Women Camp Manual and note in your journal how you could apply them in your home to keep your family safe. Develop a list of basic supplies your family will need in case of an emergency. Teach a family home evening lesson or share with a Young Women leader what you have learned and what additional skills you would like to learn to be prepared for emergencies.
Have a special camp night at mutual the week after camp. If possible, have girls bring pictures taken at camp to make a camp scrapbook. Set up a tent and have S’mores while girls talk about their favorite memories and the different things they learned. Talk about how Girls Camp helps prepare us physically and spiritually for life, and make a list of basic survival supplies for both.
