Information for Hike Helpers

We will need approximately 30 adult leaders to help run our Saturday morning hike.  We will work with ward YM/YW leaders to identify those leaders from each ward who can help.

Those leaders will receive information by e-mail by Friday evening with basic information.

Saturday morning, we ask that these Hike Helpers meet at the Stake Center (we will use the RS room if available) at 8:00 am for a brief session to familiarize all with plans for the hike and make assignments for the hike, then by about 8:15 we will have the leaders covering the early portions of the hike on their way down to start setting up; the rest of the leaders will follow as organized.

There are several key items we would like our Hike Helpers to bring:
- A lawn chair you can carry with you to your location may be worthwhile at most of the hike stations.
- A water bottle or "camel bag" of some kind is recommended for your own hydration.
- Sunscreen for yourself, and perhaps for some youth who need some and have forgotten to apply!
- A digital camera if you have one to help us get some great photos of the youth on the hike.  After the hike (about 10-11 am) we will have one or more computers set up at the Amphitheater to download these photos from your camera as a record of the activity and for use in a slideshow to be compiled of Youth Conference.

In addition to keeping things safe along the hike, the plan is for there to be stations along the hike where the youth recite each Article of Faith in groups.  We will go over how to do this at our brief meeting Saturday morning at the Stake Center.

Thank you so much for your help!
