We have worked with several different Young Women's Groups this summer, installing the new benches. The following pictures are a combination of the projects...
| Old, log benches |
| Rotted and ant infested- HUGE ants! |
| Granger decided to make the bench map into an Excel spread sheet. It made the designing and inventory control of the logs a lot easier. |

| The girls start by hauling out the old logs |
| Sometimes the logs are very heavy and the hills are very steep |
| The pedestals are brought in using specially designed carriers... |
| ...or wheel barrows |
| The logs are carried in |
| Sister Parks (Camp Host) is very busy. Benches are hard, hot work! |
| Placing the benches after the area is leveled and terraced |
| Sister Hyde-YW Committe Sister Honroth- Esther Camp Host Sister Elswood- Ground Maintenance |
| The girls work together to assemble the benches |
| Elder Oliekan has the girls survey their work and decide what needs to be done to make the project work better |
| Old benches |
| New benches!!! |
| Elder and Sister Adams with the Young Women |
| Finished bench project |
| This stake invited our crew to lunch- homemade tamales- Yum!!! |
| This fun ward took pity on us after we worked all afternoon and invited us to dinner. We visited with some darling Beehives! |
| Here are the newly completed benches being used for a dutch oven mixing station and footrests for the camp chairs in the rear. Hmmm, and WHY did we spend so much time on those benches ?!?!?!? |
