12 years as a camper
3rd year on staff
Hey y’all! I’m a senior nursing major at Samford University in Birmingham Alabama! My favorite color is purple. I love drinking tea (especially in the morning on the dining hall porch)! Camp is my happy place and I am so excited to make even more memories there this summer!
“The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for You are with me. Your rod and your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.” Psalm 23
A few things I love: Baking, stargazing, singing, creating
When I have an hour of free time, I like to… Read, sew, draw, or bake!
Something you wouldn’t guess about me: I am one of the most recent people to pass the highest level in fencing at camp
The one thing that makes any day better: A smile from a friend or a song to sing together
Best camp tradition? I have so many favorites! Like opening day brownies, Sunday concerts, and the Linsey-Woolsey story!
Favorite Evening Program? Vespers! (Opening and closing)
The camp food I can’t wait to eat is… Cheesy chicken
Item that I MUST bring to Camp with me: Books! And stationary to write letters!
The song that describes me: She’s a butterfly by Martina McBride
The most famous person I’ve met is… Johnny Swim!
My favorite cheesy joke: When does a joke become a “Dad Joke”? … when it becomes apparent 😂
At camp, I’ll be the one… Singing the harmonies to the slow songs
I wanted to work at Greystone because… It’s is my favorite place in the world with my favorite people in the world! I want to help bring the joy and magic that camp brought to my life to the lives of this summer’s campers and counselors
The best thing about camp will be… The people!!
