Our camp was scheduled to be June 18-21st - but we got a call on June 11th from the camp asking where we were!!
They were expecting us that day (a week early) - WHAT?!
So we all rallied and got most of our girls to camp with only 6 hours notice!! I love our leaders!
Our theme was "Oh, the Places You'll Go!" These are the goodies bags everyone got when they registered. It had their name lanyard, the schedule, their Secret Sister name, the camp song lyrics, a lollipop treat and a theme-inspired print out.
They also got their "Value Pills" (Skittles)
A couple of the pillow treats this year
We usually give out a necklace to the girls each year according to our theme. We got them large compasses so they can be reminded of the Places They'll Go in life
I gave my teachers these goodies for preparing wonderful classes. I put their photo on "Fox in Socks" and put it on the yummiest shea socks from B&B works
Our camp crafts this year - paint chip bookmarks. They stamped all sorts of designs on their picked out colors and then attached the Dr.Seuss quote on the back and tied their fluffy ribbon on top. We made a double braid headband - those turned out so cute. We had about 7 different fabrics all ripped for them to chose from. The girls also make this cute braided hemp twine bracelet with heart charm.
Our t-shirt this year. They printed up a little more neon than I had designed - but everyone liked them that way :)
I had made and laminated about 15 hot air balloons with all the Places You'll Go throughout life (college, mission, motherhood, Temple, marriage, workplace, etc). We hung them all up in our main room - they looked super cute.
Some of the room doors had Dr.Seuss themed characters and poster on them. We also had a cute "mailbox" envelope on each door this year for the girls to put notes in for each other.
It's kind of hard to tell how cute this hall was with all the colorful ribbons and bows tied to the posts!
We had a great camp and I'm so grateful that I had everything prepared way ahead of time since I had a week less time to prepare. I was able to just pack up my van and get to camp with the girls!!

Love your hand outs! Is there anyway I can download them.
Hi, I love your necklaces, do you remember where you got them from? I've been looking and they all seem to ship from china! thanks, julie
Love your ideas! Would it be possible to get a copy of the pillow treat tags you made?! They are so cute and we are using the same theme! If you are able to send them, I would appreciate it! amyrosa3@gmail.com
I love the tee-shirt! Is there anyway to print/share it? Any help would be great!
Has anyone ever heard back from this blog? I would really like to get the design for the tee shirt! Our camp is July 31 please email me at clydia.davis@gmail.com There are some great ideas! If anyone knows where to go to get this type of design to give to a printer please, please let me know!!
Hi,
This is the epitomy of creativity! Super and a great example for someone with the responsibility for all of this but who camped when camping did not have any themes, decorations, pillow treats, etc.
So the big question is: is it possible to acquire the files and copy your stuff or would you rather not? Our ward camp theme is Dr. Seuss....In any case it is really fun to read.

I would also love the files, if possible, for our girls camp. You are so talented and creative!!

Thank you for posting your awesome work!!
This is amazing work! I wish that I knew how to create these sorts of things. Do you share? I would LOVE to use some of these. If you do, my email is aelubeck at gmail dot com.
Inspiring either way! I will try to create some, but I doubt that they will be nearly as nice!
Thanks!
Alex
I would LOVE to get the pill bottle template! I was already planning on doing pill bottles, but if you had some sort of template already made up, it would make my day so much easier!!! huckhood@netzero.net
Thanks so much!

Can I please get a pdf of your files. these are great ideas I would like to use at my girls camp next week. crazywaltermom@gmail.com thanks
Could I get the Pdf for your pillow treat labels they are great! mandybevans@hotmail.com
These are such creative ideas!! This is our 2014 girls camp theme and I was wondering if you have these files available for the printables? You can reach me at: tonyandkathyallred@gmail.com
Wow! I love your ideas! I was just called to be Camp Director on Sunday and have been searching for a perfect theme. I think this is it! Like everyone else, I'm wondering if you could email the files you used for the printables. My email is malindanelson@hotmail.com. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas!
From Jenny:
Thank you for all your love and interest in our Girl's Camp 2013. I created all these on Photoshop and can't email those files. I can share the pillow treat toppers. I did find the pill bottle template on Pinterest and just changed wording to work for our girls. Let me know if you have any specific questions - it was a really fun theme to work with! Good luck to all you directors!!
Jenny, thanks for your quick reply! I'm wondering if you could just send me the words to the poem that was in your goody bags. The first half is cute, but I can't see the rest in the picture. Thanks again!
This is a great idea for girls camp! I am putting together a girls camp issue for Stand and Shine Magazine, an e-magazine for LDS young women. Would it be alright if I used some of your photos for theme ideas? I would link back to your post. If you want to see what our magazine is about, we are at standandshinemagazine.blogspot.com.
Hi Jenny,
This is our theme for girls camp this year for the Los Angeles Stake. I see in the first photo that you have a "theme-inspired print out". Do you happen to have an image of all the words to this poem? Or a screengrab of the Photoshop file? I would love to adapt this for our girls. Thanks so much! jessicabeandesign at gmail
Hi jenny,
This is also our theme for girls camp this year in our Montana Stake. I too am interested in the "theme-inspired print out", but can't see all the words to the poem. Do you happen to have an image of all the words or a word document of just the words? I too would love to use it with our girls if you share. Thank you!
