Penpal Bucket List Contest

To some March means basketball, to others it’s an excuse to pull out all your green, but at Greystone it’s one of our FAVORITE times of the year: Penpal Season!

Getting your Penpal is the first real sign that camp is just arond the corner, and we love seeing your excitement as you make a new friend before the summer even starts. There’s nothing like coming home from school to your new friend’s address - it means camp is coming!

As if that wasn’t enough, we’re upping the excitement this year with our Penpal Bucket List Contest!

The contest is simple: if you and your Penpal check off everything on our Bucket List Card (included in your Penpal letter), you’ll win a GREAT prize at camp!

Before Camp:

  • Send your first letter! Tell her how excited you are that she’s your Penpal.
  • Send each other a picture, or several. It can be of yourself, your family, or your pet.
  • Tell her your funniest joke!
  • Connect with each other in at least 1 other way, whether it’s adding each other on social media or exchanging phone numbers or emails.
  • Keep writing, and writing… and writing! Every letter is an invitation for you to respond. Didn’t get a letter back? Write again!

During Camp:

  • Find each other on Opening Day. Your counselor can help you!
  • Sign up to take a class together (at our longer sessions) or tell each other about your favorite class.
  • Get in front of the camp camera and take a picture together.
  • Go to Candy Shoppe together and have a DMC!

Are you and your Penpal up for the challenge?
