On opening day we started our opening assembly with a line of counselors cheering the campers into the Pavilion. The girls could hear the cheers of the enthusiastic counselors as they walked down the hill and as they saw the reception that awaited them they would break into big smiles and run through the line. It gives me chills to remember… and we duplicated that moment last night as the campers entered the Dining Hall for the big banquet.
It is a wonderful tradition, one that brings tears to the eye (particularly on opening day). Such delight, such affirmation, such anticipation… Heaven!
June Camp is now over, marking a major accomplishment for all. Campers and counselors alike know that they have been a part of something special. We formed an almost perfect community for a brief period of time. That is a big deal, one that is worth celebrating.
Thank You for making Greystone Great. Thank you for sharing our passion for camping.
We now await the Main campers, whose arrival on Monday will mark the high water mark of our summer. With a start like we have had, Main Camp promises to be amazing. We can’t wait!
