Our YM/YW read the entire BOM starting Friday night
and ended Saturday night.
They stopped only to pray over the food
and when they left to sleep.
Only a couple missed the weekend and with the
whole ward helping with food
it was a HUGE success!

The kids actually left their cell phones out in the hall. I told them I didn't care if they texted when they got up to use the bathroom and it really worked out!

I made little goody bags with bottle water, crystal light packets, candy, red scripture pencils, and gum.

I should've taken a picture before all the youth arrived to show how nice it all looked.
We ended up have around 22 kids in attendance.

Adult "guest" readers would show up periodically to give the kids a break but the youth really liked to read and would go sit on the couch when they felt like reading a couple chapters.

WE DID IT!!!
I couldn't have done it without all the help from the members who brought so much food, it
was an unforgettable weekend!
