One of the knots we need to learn is lashing three sticks in order to make a teepee. I recommend watching this video

Lashing Bamboo for Tripod

The first knot is a clove hitch and it was difficult for me, but watch this video if you have a hard time getting the clove hitch.

Clove Hitch Knot

Practice makes perfect. Do not be discouraged if you do not get it right away. Remember if it’s difficult it’s worth learning.

These are not the only knots we will have to learn. But it is very important to learn the club hitch. In order to use a lashing knot you must start with a club hitch. I will be posting more videos as we get closer and closer to camporee.

I know some of you are on spring break. So you will have a lot of extra time on your hands to learn knots. :D

  1. First five chapters of the The Great Controversy
  2. Make a personal visit to a non-member of your church, and follow it up with a brief visit leaving him/her some reading material. (Found on page 9 of your workbook).

For the second assignment I have reading material available for you, but you need to contact me so we can make arrangements. Reading material can be something as easy as the Guide or Insight that you guys receive every Sabbath. It is important that you are able to start witnessing to  non-members and become comfortable doing it. I know that the second assignment may make you uneasy, but pray about who you should give the reading material to and pray that the Holy Spirit will be with you.

Remember I will not be here after the December 23. It is important that IF YOU NEED READING MATERIAL to hand out, that you contact me before December 17.
