Youth Conference day 2

This was a packed day.  They had rotations where they learned more about the new For the Strength of Youth handbook and made a caron necklace to remind them.  The youth were then split into groups and one group went river rafting while the other group went to the ropes courses.  Courtney had a blast on the river.  Their raft had 6 people in it and the guide was really cool.  He let them get out and float down the river.  The river is running really high right now and the rapids are great so the kids had a lot of fun.  They played wars and pulled each other out of their rafts.  Courtney can't wait to go back with the family at the end of June.

After rafting, Courtney's group did the obstacle and ropes courses.  She said it was hard because there were a lot of teamwork games where you had to work as a team, but she had fun.  The best part was the swing.  They hooked someone up in the swing and the rest of the group pulled them high.  The person then had to let go of the rope and freefall until the swing caught.  Courtney did it first so she didn't know what to expect but she loved it. Here's the video proof.
