Well today was a big day.  Our trek training for Treks coming

in 2016!  We had a great turn out and they said

they learned a lot.

Look at the engrossed audience!

Elder Cowan had them speechless, or asleep?

Check out Elder Cowan dancing to the music

YMCA, only it was a TREK version that Mindy Taylor

wrote for Trek.  

We had everyone dancing but I had to get a photo of

Cowan!  It is amazing what I've seen him do.

After the main training we had a mini trek for those

who wanted to have a handcart experience.  We had only

three carts go, but it was worth it for them.  They all said

how fun it was and what they felt as they pushed and

pulled a real cart.  We had several opportunities to

tell them stories and teach them what things they

could do with their own treks.

New Missionaries, the Calls from Spanish Fork.

The Howards from Emmett Idaho.   They came to be

part of the training and had a great time helping out.

Sister Howard loved telling the Trekkers that the

restrooms were the Porta Johns parked by the building.

Then she added, when you come trekking you get

to clean them also!  We think she is pretty funny.

Tonight Cowan and I are relaxing and enjoying the

end of a great season.  We have all the chairs put away

and the building is now filled with handcarts!

The end is near.
