8 years as a camper

1st year on staff

Hey everyone!! I’m Cates Saleeby, and I’m a freshman at Vanderbilt University from Florence, South Carolina. I cannot wait to be back at Greystone this summer!!! After being a camper for 8 years, I am beyond excited to return as a counselor. I’m looking forward to a summer filled with Lake Edith, DMCs, cabin dance parties, and all of the amazing things camp has to offer!

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you, I have called you by name, you are mine.” Isaiah 43:1

Personal Interests? running, baking, reading, exploring Nashville with friends

When I have an hour of free time, I like to… catch up with friends over ice cream

Best camp tradition? The counselors singing “Good Night” at the end of Banquet

Favorite Evening Program? Closing Vespers or the Synchro Show

Sing? Dance? Or both? Both, very badly, usually while driving in my car

Item that I MUST bring to Camp with me…. My headlamp and a pair of old running shoes

Something you wouldn’t guess about me… I’m terrified of fish!

Last book I read… The Complete Stories by Flannery O’Connor

Three words to describe yourself: dedicated, curious, and caring

Hidden talent? Always taking the stairs

If my life could have a theme song, it would be…. “Sweet Disposition” by The Temper Trap

The best thing about camp will be… Spending tons of time with new and old friends and with God
