Alpine Camp

On September 14, 1992, the Alpine Camp was formed after splitting from the Mountainville Camp. They have contributed much to their community:
  • The Alpine Camp helped to dig out under the Relic Hall and make a basement. A nice room was made and many relics and artifacts were put in the basement and often members helped in restoring and caring for these items. Along with other camps these women help to conduct tours at the Relic Hall. 
  • Beautiful Quilts have been made by this camp and donated on Alpine Days. 
  • They also contributed money to help build a place to store the Restored Fire Truck in Salt Lake City. 
  • Bake sales helped raise revenue for the camp and Relic Hall. One member said she would often sell the chocolate cake she had made walking to Alpine Days long before she even got there. 
This camp likes to take field trips. Some of their meetings have been at the Relic Hall. They have also gone to Historic Moyle Park, This is the Place Monument, Manti Temple, Holdman Stained Glass Studio, and Mt. Timpanogos Cave Visitors Center. They also publish the Alpine Camp Companion.
