June Newsletter Announcements

The Ward Pool Party is on Sat, August 25th from 8-10pm at the Oquirrh Park Fitness Center Pools. This will take the place of the annual ward camp-out.

YW News – Our YW had a lot of help from ward members for activities this month. Thank you to Bro. Christensen who taught the older girls about auto maintenance; Sis. Terry, Tingey, Rowe, and Gerber who styled the YW's hair for our "modest fashion show", and the Puentes and Gurneys for teaching all the youth salsa and country swing dancing for our combined activity.  The youth had a blast!
Camp Kickoff is June 6th. Parents are invited and encouraged to come from 7-7:30pm. Come learn what we are doing for camp and get your YW's permission slips signed.

YM News – The Scouts and Cub Scouts participated at Scout-O-Rama by hosting a knot-tying booth the first weekend in May.  The boys had fun making handcuffs with rope and there was a good turn-out with great help from the parents and leaders. The Scouts have been preparing for their upcoming hike next week – 50/30/20/12 (30 miles biking, 20 miles walking in 12 hours). Along with all their hiking and camping prep, they have attended the temple and were in charge of the flag ceremony for the Stake Court of Honor. Tyrel Gurney did a great job at being Master of Ceremonies.

Ward choir practice will resume in July.  Look for more information in next month's newsletter.
