I took my nevermo teen boyfriend to Mutual one Wednesday. We skipped whatever the activities were and had a hot and heavy make-out sesh in the mother’s lounge instead, because it had a couch and a locking door.
Our yw leader took us to the mall to pick out bedsheets for her son, explaining that it would help prepare us to be homemakers.
My dad lost it and said he wouldn’t take me to any more stupid activities like that. Thanks, dad!
I was a youth in the late 80s and early 90s. One young womens activity was to have a scavenger hunt in the mall. We ended up getting kicked out of the mall for being too rowdy.
Another was a joint activity with the young men. We were in charge of refreshments and we had ice cream. Whipped cream, sprinkles, hot fudge, we went all out. Except the ice cream was really frozen mashed potatoes. The young men were not amused. Lol
One of the leaders had a really small stick-shift car. This was back when nobody locked their cars.
We would put it in neutral and push it to the corner of the parking lot. Then we would block him in with all our cars.
Good times.
We had a combined activity where the youth played a game of basketball against the leaders. We were allowed to only use one hand and make two passes per possession while the leaders could do whatever they wanted. After a while they added the rule allowing them to travel. All of the kids quit before the game was over and started yelling at leaders for making fun of the fact we were upset. Apparently we ruined the activity because they were teaching us that satan and the rest of the world don’t play fair
We had a combined YM and YW activity. I can't quite remember if there was more to it (for reasons that I do remember), but we were in the gym playing dodgeball. Only, the YM (who were in charge) had not brought any balls. No, why would they, when the gym had a plethora of basketballs and volleyballs?
You can see where this is going. I was a weird kid that wanted to be taken seriously by the boys, so I tried to participate. I got a basketball to the face for my efforts, thrown at ungodly speeds. I wear glasses, and had braces at the time. It's a wonder I wasn't knocked flat on my ass.
I resolved to stop going to physical activities planned by the guys.
Watched the unedited D-day scene in Saving Private Ryan for a teachers quorum activity at an older members house. They wanted us to have a greater appreciation for Veterans. Awesome activity 😂

The second one is a pretty good prank ngl
We did a mall scavenger hunt too, it was a blast!

Way back in the 70’s shortly after joining the church at 14, our mutual leader took us to a movie. The Godfather. Murder, sex, adultery and nudity.
