CHAPTER ONE
introduction
the summer of 2002 marked the 2626th anniversary of the youth camp especially for
youth better known as EFY over 34000 teenagers from across the united states canada
and several foreign countries gathered on thirty one different college campuses to attend one of
the sixty four sessions of the five day program 1 since the first session in 1976 especially for
youth has enjoyed steady increases in attendance and popularity beginning in the early 1980s
the programs success reached the point that applicants were turned away because there was not
enough space to house all those who wanted to attend 2
what is especially for youth today
especially for youth is a summer camp with a religious emphasis designed especially for
1 especially for youth is often perceived as a program held only at brigham young university BYUyet only about one sixth of the sessions in 2002 were held on the BYU provo campus A list ofvarious campusesand the number of sessions held in 2002 follows BYU provo utah 11 BYU idaho rexburgredburgRexburg 7 southern virginiauniversity buena vista 5

teenage members of the church of jesus christ of latter day saints young men and young
women ages 141814 18 are eligible to attend generally speaking each session has a ratio of 55
girls 45 boys session ratios are largely determined by dormitory space registration materials
for especially for youth describe a carefully balanced program of classes and activities just for
seminary age youth 3 those who register to attend must agree to abide by the brigham young
university BYU honor code while attending the camp the weeks activities are centered on a
scriptural theme intended to generate excitement for the seminary curriculum to be studied in the
fall following the program each session includes over 15 hours of classroom instruction and
devotionalsdevotionals outdoor recreation activities dances a service project a variety show and a
testimony meeting at the end of the week each youth leaves especially for youth with a
program t shirt a compact disc of music written especially for the program and a book written by
selected especially for youth teachers on a variety of religious topics
administration
especially for youth is administered by church educational system CES youth and
family programs a department within the BYU division of continuing education the
relationship between BYU continuing education and the church educational system stems from
a 1972 decision by CES commissioner ofeducation neal A maxwell the division had been
successful in so many of its programs that commissioner maxwell decided some of the divisions
3 httphcebyueduypefyindexhtmlhttpcebyueduypefyindexhtml

functions should be regarded as CES programs rather than BYU programs 4 As a consequence
the division of continuing education is unique in that the dean of continuing education has a
dual reporting line in matters relating to CES programs the dean reports to the CES
administrator over religious education and elementary and secondary education in matters
involving other departments such as conferences and workshops travel study and evening
classes he reports to the president ofBYU thus while especially for youth falls under the
CES umbrella it is administered by employees of the division of continuing education at
brigham young university
faculty
approximately 140 faculty about 70 ofwhom are full time CES seminary teachers or
BYU religious education instructors taught classes at especially for youth in 2002 5 the
majority of the faculty live along the wasatch front and many travel to EFY venues outside of
utah often referred to as regional sessions CES faculty who reside in or near the areas where
regional sessions are held are also hired when willing and available all EFY faculty submit an
outline for each of their lectures to the materials evaluation review committee part of the
churchschurche correlation committee for clearance every class taught at EFY is evaluated by
selected participants and counselors completed evaluations are reviewed by program
administrators each year in an effort to ensure doctrinal purity and to maintain quality teaching

supervision youth counselors
the youth who participate are housed in the student dormitories and are supervised by
college age counselors hired from among brigham young university students and institute of
religion students across the country participants are divided into groups of about 10 to 16 and
are assigned a counselor who boards with them in the dormitory over 1500 applications were
received for counselor positions in 2001 and a little over 650 were hired 6 counselors participate
in several training sessions during the spring to prepare for the summer in addition to providing
supervision and direction to the youth counselors are expected to serve as visible and
approachable examples ofgospel living to whom the youth can relate each evening counselors
present a devotional from a set curriculum on fundamental topics like the plan of salvation the
fall and the atonement each morning following breakfast and a devotional the counselors
conduct scripture study sessions with their group counselors are also expected to attend and
evaluate classes with the participants help serve lunches usher and perform other duties
connected with the program
organization
to fully appreciate the impact of individual counselors and administrators on the EFY
program it is essential to understand the organizational structure in greater detail As mentioned
above especially for youth is administered by the BYU division of continuing education which
is presided over by a dean within the division are various departments each with a chair who
reports to the dean the department which coordinates and administers especially for youth is

called CES youth and family programs working under the department chair are several full
time administrators with duties involving scheduling faculty and program administration the
head counselors are normally BYU students hired each fall and employed throughout the school
year in preparation for the program to be held the following summer 7 the building counselors
preside over the youth counselors in their building or dormitory and also assist in administrative
duties during the week the youth counselors supervise a group of approximately 10 to 16
youth attendees each session youth counselors more than any other continuing education
administrators have the most one on one contact with the youth who attend and are thus
perceived to be the primary factor in the success of the program head counselors building
counselors and youth counselors generally speaking work throughout the entire summer at
numerous sessions
unique to each individual session is the codirectorco director also referred to as a session
director co directors are typically chosen to serve for one session during the year from among
previous EFY faculty the co directors serve as a counselor to the counselors presenting a
kickoff address to the counselors at the beginning of the session giving talks to the youth
making calls to parents ofEFY participants if there are any problems and generally presiding
over the session
the administrative structure ofEFY has evolved somewhat from its inception to the
present and the names of many of the intermediate positions have been changed but the
7 many different titles have been used to describe this position such as program administratorprogram coordinator counselor director and director the author has chosen to use the designation head
counselor throughout this thesis since it was the most commonly used term during the period of this study
5
fundamental organization has remained consistent over the last twentyfivetwenty five years 8

CIIAPTERCHAPTER TWO
methodology
research problems
documenting the history ofofefyafefyEFY is difficult for three reasons first during the late 1970s
the attitude of the leadership of the BYU division of continuing education was that the division
existed to provide adult education programs the word continuing as it relates to continuing
education is generally understood to mean education beyond a formal degree thus youth
programs were perceived by some as external to the divisions most important purpose for this
reason ronald C hills the continuing education administrator who created especially for
youth in 1976 deliberately underreported the growth and success of the program after the first
three years to protect it from being cancelled or scaled back 9
second published histories of continuing education do not go beyond the year 1973 and
the inaugural session ofespecially for youth took place three years later in the summer of 1976 010o
some information is contained in the continuing education annual reports but they are typically
limited to brief statistical references hills recalled that a few boxes of papers containing
information about EFY were submitted to the records management office in hopes that they

might be archived hills recalled that the records office eventually informed the youth programs
office that they saw no reason to archive much of the material 11 the current chair of records
management agrees that because the retention period is long past the early records concerning
especially for youth were probably destroyed 12
third the department itself did not keep an official history until 199319941993 1994 susan V
overstreet a department secretary who served with the youth programs since 1980 and who also
served as the department chair ofcesofiesof CES youth and family programs from february 1994 to july
2000 remarked that most of the early history ofespecially for youth exists only in peoples
heads 13
sources
the main source of information about the first several years ofespecially for youth has
been personal interviews and correspondence with former administrators counselors and
participants other sources include records ofofbyuBYU continuing education and CES youth and

CHAPTER THREE
the first session ofespecially for youth 1976
1976 program description
ronald C hills created especially for youth in 1976 at that time hills was a full time
administrator in special courses and conferences 1 one of the departments within BYU
continuing education hills intention was to create an education week for teenagers where
youth could interact with other young people from various places in the country rather than just
with those from their own ward or stake as is typical with a standard youth conference 2
1976 session date
the first session ofespecially for youth was scheduled for july 192319 23 1976
1976 enrollment
hills anticipated enrollment of about 500 youth and was disappointed to see the deadline
day for registrations approaching with only 147 enrolled hills briefly considered cancelling the
program but a packet of 25 registrations arrived on the deadline day and the decision was made
1 the department under which especially for youth originated was called special courses andconferences in 1978 its name was changed to conferences and workshops and for a time programs within thatdepartment involving young people were informally referred to as youth religion programs in 1982 a newdepartment was formed called CES youth and family programs with ronald C hills as the chair

1976 basic agenda
no program agendas could be located for the first session ofofefyafefyEFY A 1976 brigham
young university summer youth programs brochure describes especially for youth as a week
long program of classesseminarsclasses seminars on youth related concerns with recreation and
entertainment 5 while especially for youth could be called a recreational camp from the
outset it always had a religious and educational emphasis
1976 faculty
hills wanted to find competent teachers who could instruct the youth during the day so he
contacted paul warnerwamer a CES employee and a seminary pre service instructor at BYU to help
identify potential faculty paul wamerwarner contacted joe J christensen associate commissioner for
seminaries and institutes for approval approval was granted and letters were sent to selected
teachers who were invited to participate the letter to potential faculty began
approval has been granted by joe J christensen to involve a select group ofseminar teachers in a new summer program just for youth the program will lastone week july 192319 23 and will consist of a whole series ofofonecofoneone or two hourpresentations of topics that young people are vitally interested in it will be held

we would be pleased if you would accept our invitation to be part of this new offering and
present six lectures or workshops during the four day program the honorarium would be100 for the six hours of presentation we will attempt to schedule each speaker daily for
three hours on two consecutive days we anticipate an audience ofbetween 50 and 100

for the eleven years involved in this study the front cover of the program agendas for especially
for youth sessions included this sentence sponsored jointly by seminaries and institutes and
church continuing education
journal entries of a youth participant in 1976 indicate there were at least fourteen
teachers and two devotional speakers at the first session exact numbers are unknown since there
may be faculty the participant did not hear during the week the list of faculty and the classes
they taught appear in the 1976 historical data section at the end of this chapter 7
todd B parker a faculty member in 1976 recalls that jemJefjeffreymireyfirey R holland also participated
in the first session ofofefyafefyEFY as a banquet speaker on thursday evening in room 396 of the
wilkinson center 8

included the responsibility to accompany the youth to classes provide general supervision at all
the activities and conduct an evening prayer at the close of the day 11 counselors stayed in the

CHAPTER FOUR
1977 two sessions and five times as many youth
1977 program description
1977 session dates
the 1977 program was split into two five day sessions one of the two sessions in 1977
was held july 252925 29 the dates of the other session are unknown renae north who began her
employment with BYU central scheduling in 1972 and who currently serves as manager of
central scheduling reported that records from the mid to late seventies were not stored on a
computer database and have probably been destroyed her educated guess is that both 1977
sessions were held in july 1 since the pattern for several years after 1977 was to separate
especially for youth sessions by one week the author suspects that the first 1977 session was
held from july I11115111- 15
1977 enrollment
the second annual especially for youth enjoyed more than a 500 increase in
enrollments the 197619771976 1977 annual report recorded the program especially for youth which
operates on an education week format brought 863 high school students to campus 2

1977 basic agenda
the bulk of the daytime hours ofespecially for youth consists of classroom instruction
following a morning devotional in which all participants are expected to attend each individual is
allowed to choose from a number of class offerings
unique to the 1977 sessions3 were assembly classes held on tuesday and friday
afternoon in which all the youth like the devotional assemblies were expected to attend
together another event unique to the 1977 sessions was the scripture chase competition the
complete agenda for the july 252925 29 1977 session appears in the 1977 historical data section at
the end of this chapter
1977 faculty
As mentioned above only the july 252925 29 program agenda was available for examination
the july 252925 29 program agenda lists thirty three faculty twenty three of which 70 were
teachers or administrators in the church educational system the names of individual faculty
their CES assignments or occupations at the time of their involvement with EFY and the classes
they presented during the session are listed in the 1977 historical data section at the end of this
chapter
1977 counselors
many details about the 1977 sessions are unknown it is not known how many youth
3 this assumes that the other 1977 session agenda was identical to the july 252925 29 session the programagenda for the other 1977 session could not be located
17
were enrolled in each of the two sessions and it is unknown who served as the head counselors
and youth counselors As mentioned above total enrollment at EFY in 1977 was 863 assuming
that each session enrolled about half that number or 431 youth and if the counselor to participant
ratio was equivalent to the 1976 ratio about fourteen youth for each counselor we suspect that
approximately thirty one counselors were hired for 1977

1986 significant events
the year 1986 is significant in the early history of especially for youth because it is the
first year that a session of especially for youth was held away from BYU campus the 1985-
1986 annual report stated
the first ever session of especially for youth held away from the campus took place atsan diego state university june 232623 26 1986 in spite of some special challenges of anunfamiliar and somewhat worldly environment EFY was able to come close toreplicating the same experience and spirit of the campus programs for the almost 400participants mostly from the southern california area the week provided them withsocial and spiritual experiences that will help them better cope with the challenges theyface youth leaders and the youth themselves are asking for an annual EFY in southerncalifornia as a result of this first try 3
during the san diego session the thursday night fireside speaker ron williams
unexpectedly cancelled kenneth cope one of the counselors who was already scheduled to
present a morning devotional that week volunteered to present the fireside as well his fireside
was so well received that the head counselors decided to have kenneth cope do the thursday
night firesides for the rest of the summer
in keeping with the theme lovin life the EFY information booth was dubbed the
lifeboat and the counselor classes were called the lifesaversLifesavers the annual report also

faculty
during the years of the study not fewer than 1853 classes were taught involving at least
166 teachers some classes were taught by two or more teachers
the impact ofofcesofiesCES teachers on especially for youth from 197619861976 1986 is significant the
145
majority ofofefyafefyEFY faculty or 105 of the 166 documented teachers 63 were CES teachers or
administrators however CES teachers taught 84 of all documented classes or 1557 of the
1853 documented classes during the first eleven years ofofefyafefyEFY by contrast only 16 of the
documented classes taught at EFY from 1976 1986 were taught by non CES faculty A
complete list of the documented faculty who taught from 1976 to 1986 and the number of
documented classes they taught appears in appendix B

all of the ten most frequently used faculty were men and all were employees or
administrators in the church educational system these ten teachers represent only 6 of all
teachers but they taught over a third or 38.6386386 7161853 of all documented classes from 1976-

counselors
counselor lists have been located for 1979 1980 1984 1985 1986 and appear in the
historical data sections of the preceding chapters partial lists exist for 1978 1981 1982 and
1983 it is unknown who served as counselors in the first two years 197619771976 1977
conclusion
this thesis has examined especially for youth from its beginnings until 1986 compiling
the history ofofefyafefyEFY is definitely a work in process there is much to be done but in light of the
impact ofofefyafefyEFY on thousands ofyoung latter day saints it ought to be done what began as a
very small summer camp has become a force within the church stanley A peterson CES
administrator religious education and elementary and secondary education spoke to the EFY
counselors and staff in march of 2000 and counseled
what a responsibility and yet what an opportunity you have to bless 25000 youngpeople this summer do it well will you you have built a wonderful reputationover the years that one of the finest things that can happen to young people is to goto EFY keep that reputation going 2
obviously the next step in research would be to document the years from 1987 to the
present there are enough journal keeping former EFY counselors to make it possible and CES
youth and family programs is much better at keeping records since especially for youth

counselors have a greater impact on the youth than anything else at EFY 3 it would also be
worthwhile to have counselor names documented and recorded
perhaps ofgreater value than this thesis will be the archive created in the BYU library
the source material in the archive will allow for more focused studies and will also provide a
place to archive new information as it becomes available also in an effort to locate more
information about EFY I1 have purchased the internet domain name wwwefyhistoryorg which I1
hope will become a place where former EFY participants and counselors can submit information
about EFY and fill in some of the gaps within this thesis
especially for youth is not without its critics oddly enough some of its harshest critics
are CES teachers and administrators many EFY teachers over the years have commented that
their CES associates those with whom they work at their seminary or institute view the EFY
program as all fun and the EFY teaching as all fluff whether these comments come from actual
experience or just perceptions and prejudices has always been a question in my mind one of the
most interesting findings for me personally was that 84 of all documented classes taught at EFY
during the period of this study were taught by CES teachers and that every one of the top ten
most frequently used faculty were also CES teachers oddly enough EFYs main critic is also its
main supplier of teachers EFY has responded well to constructive criticism over the years and it
might be interesting in the future to conduct a survey of CES teachers and administrators today to
see ifperceptions are changing certainly the statement above from stanley A peterson is
evidence that at least some top CES administrators have viewed EFY as a blessing to the youth of
3 of the youth participants responding to the survey 7711 said their counselor was the most influentialaspect of the program see kawai leslie A organizational study of CES youth and family programsdecember 1997 22 document in possession ofofgregofgrengreg tanner director CES youth and family programs 197harman continuing education building BYU provo utah 84602 8011378296980113782969.8011378801 37829693782969.378 2969

the church that was the intent of ronald C hills from the beginning and of every EFY teacher
and administrator I1 contacted while doing this research the real evidence of the impact ofEFY is
much more difficult to measure and that is the changes that occur in the lives of thousands of
young people counselors and participants alike
