10 years as a camper

2nd year on staff

Hey y’all! I’m Suz, this is my 12th summer at Greystone, and I’m so excited to reconnect with my Greystone family after two years away (how has it been that long?)!

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails” Corinthians 13:4-8

A few things I love: Hiking, climbing, singing around a campfire, and talking to people that I love (or new people)!

When I have an hour of free time, I like to… Write, read, or have a DMC!

Best camp tradition? Closing Vespers

The song that describes me: Stay Gentle by Brandi Carlile

I wanted to work at Greystone because… Greystone is my second home, and my favorite place on earth! I always leave camp as a better person, and I am reminded each summer that kindness, gratitude, faith, and love are the most important things in life (the rest is just noise)!

The best thing about camp will be… Learning from my campers, growing closer to God, and seeing the ways that unselfishness and love come full circle!
