Staff arrive in 99 days!

sarah@campgreystone.com (Sarah Brown) — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 09:19:21 -0500

I can’t believe it! Our full summer staff will be sitting in orientation in less than 100 days! Camp is just around the corner.

For the year-round Greystone staff, hearing that camp begins so soon really puts butterflies in our stomachs. These butterflies are mainly out of excitement – camp is so lonely in the offseason; knowing the fun will begin in 99 days is beyond thrilling! The butterflies ...

Lost Senior Hunt Photos

sarah@campgreystone.com (Sarah Brown) — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 09:19:10 -0500

I have been looking for these photos for a while and finally found them on my computer. I love Senior Hunt! I think I say that every year, but I think it is so much fun. I always love these photos that we get at one of the Amazing Race stations. So many of the cabin groups are wearing matching outfits, which is just great!

Hope you enjoy these “lost” Senior Hunt photos as much as I did – glad th...

I love so many of these counselor photos that were sent in for the photo contest! Our counselors see each other all the time – at college football games, when Kelly rolls into town, on Christmas vacation, and more. Some of my favorite photos are from the 2 trips overseas.

Last week, I got an e-mail from Drew Holcomb asking me to test a new video project they were doing. It is so cool! I just had to share it with you guys as I know you’ll love making a video too.

You can make your own music video out of Drew & Ellie’s song Live Forever. I dropped some Greystone carnival photos in mine – it is awesome! Watching these photos with the Live Forever song gets me so sen...

Horses!

jimboy@campgreystone.com (Jimboy Miller) — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 09:49:29 -0500

Greystone goes overboard on a lot of things ; but NOTHING is more over the top than our riding program. The barns, the cross country course, the trails, the rings… all are impressive but nothing gets done without fantastic horses.

We own about 70 horses and have now completed a new section of the website that will introduce you to each one of them. This project has taken Katie almost a year to ...

Retro Thursday

sarah@campgreystone.com (Sarah Brown) — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 09:42:00 -0500

I absolutely love our archive photos. Every time I look at them, I still think how cool it is that camp is still the same, even after 90+ years. I found some great old photos that remind me so much of photos from this past summer. Hope you enjoy these as much as I did!

Travel Update

kelly@campgreystone.com (Kelly Carew) — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 15:27:11 -0500

Hi Greystone friends!

I was able to swing by 2 more schools before I had to head home. I stopped in Oxford, MS. I got to catch up with Mary Hunter, Marita & Sarah. A few other girls ended up having surprise study sessions and missed out! I was sad to miss them. Then I went to Rhodes College in Memphis, TN. I got to see Grace, Kacky & Kristen. I also got to see Charlotte who is working in Memphi...

I was searching through some summer pictures today and came across these great shots of Jimboy as Buddy the Elf. I love how Jimboy surprises us with new outfits during meals Seeing these photos made me ready for the Christmas season. I hope Jimboy comes to one of our meetings dressed in this Buddy outfit so we can celebrate the season in style!
