Connection Reset
This year at Young Women Camp, we are inviting each young woman to participate in The Connection Reset.
When we give our whole time, attention and hearts into Young Women Camp, we truly gain a connection with the group and ourselves that is hard and almost impossible to match when distracted by electronics.
Changing the World with Real Connection
What is The Connection Reset?
The Connection Reset is a space of time being free from electronics. Your tablet, phone, smartwatch, laptop, are all safely taking a nap while you experience life with no distractions.
It may sound weird, archaic, maybe even awkward at times, but putting your phone and electronics away allows you to open your eyes to all of the little things happening around you.
Why are we doing this?
· Camp is full of opportunities for you to connect with Jesus Christ and with each other. Phones and electronics are a competitor to this purpose!
· This is not about phones. This is about giving yourself a chance to feel the spirit of love and unity.
· We encourage you to wear a watch and bring a camera.
What if I have an emergency?
Stake and Ward Leaders will have phones and walkie talkies at camp.

We have a camp nurse if you need medical help. We have camp cooks if you need a snack. We will sing to you if you need a lullaby at bedtime. We have speakers with specially curated playlists for our dance parties. We got you!
How does it work?
Electronics: Leave your electronics at home (tablet, smart watch, video games, laptop, etc).
Phones: Leave it at home or power it off.
On Wednesday at the Stake Center, you won’t need your phone. Power it off or leave it in the car.
On Thursday when you arrive at the meeting location with your ward, give your family a hug and say, “See you Saturday!” Power your phone down. Your leaders will collect phones before you arrive at Camp Caney Creek. You also might choose to leave your phone with your family.
Photos: You and your family will have access to a google photos drive with all the photos captured at camp by our camp photographers that you can save to your computer at home.
We encourage you to wear a watch and bring a camera.
It’s not forever! Give it a chance for 2 days and document what you learn at the end of camp.
Even after camp, before camp, whenever you want, we encourage you to try out your own personal Connection Reset. Give your phone a rest, power it down and put it in a drawer for whatever time you set and immerse yourself in the world you are living in. It’s beautiful and wonderful and it’s waiting for you.
