Gillebre Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 i'm just gonna lay it down in this thread. I've never been to EFY. But Honor insists I make every effort to go. Didn't think i could go, being 18... lol Thus, I will. However, I am aiming for an Area Program EFY, because it's 300 dollars cheaper. The one i'm looking at is in Sandy, Utah, which I believe is just barely south of Salt Lake. 75 bucks, in all. presently, I'm in Kansas. however, at the beginning of June or maybe a little earlier, my family is having a reunion in Las Vegas. one of my older brothers will be driving down from Orem (he's about to move to Salt Lake). I believe I can hitch a ride back up with him to Utah, for EFY in Sandy no problem really. And i'm hoping to be able to fly back from Salt Lake, to Wichita Kansas, sometime afterwards...(i managed to look at some relatively not too expensive one way ticket from Salt Lake to Wichita, with one stop to change planes in Denver...like 190 dollars, about). However, one issue I've recognized could be a hindrance is being able to get to EFY and back to my bros house (with Area program EFY, the main difference is housing...the youth don't stay the night), basically. Any of you live in that area (Orem, Sandy, Salt Lake, etc...?)? I ask simply so I know who here lives nearby, and can talk to privately about maybe ya kno...saying hi sometime in person, among other things. Anyhow, just thought I'd put this out there and see what came of it. any thoughts or whatever else you could offer, would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiJolly Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I've never been to EFY. But Honor insists I make every effort to go. Didn't think i could go, being 18... lol I agree with Honor, you should go if you can. My kids have been going for many years, and when the 'area' EFY came along, wow, it's been very nice. Thus, I will. However, I am aiming for an Area Program EFY, because it's 300 dollars cheaper.

I live in West Jordan, and we also have area EFY here at our SLCC campus Institute building. In fact, it's a 20 minute walk (10 if you really move) from my house. This summer, I'm thinking I'll probably have 2 of my teens attending. They'll also be doing the Trek thing, so it'll be a busy summer. We're down to only 6 kids at home -- unless my college Junior comes home for the summer....! HiJolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PentiumInside Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I live in Murray, about 10 minutes north of Sandy and 10 minutes south of SLC. Orem however, is on the other side of the dang mountain. Its about 45 min drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillebre Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 I didn't realize Orem was on the other side of the mountain. lol sorry, I have no sense of that kinda stuff....being Kansan, and never having seen a mountain in my life (nor ocean, beach, etc...). so you're smack dab in the middle of them, Pentium? nice. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskagain Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Um, no, I think Gill joined in July 2007, that is the date on the right top of the post. My version of the OP says Today (1/25/08), that is on the left top of the post. Gillebre! Let us know if this is a current thread please!

Moksha Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Apparently, a lot of various forum posters fly into SLC at the end of July - first part of August for the Sunstone and Fair Conferences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heckya Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 I never went to EFY when I was a teen, but I highly recommend it. Many of my friends went-some of them that were headed away from the church-every person I know that went came home with an inspirational testimony.
