SUMMER CABIN & ACTIVITY STAFF

Hello my name is Grady and this is my second summer at camp! I’m currently in my first year at The University Of Tennessee at Chattanooga. I’m seeking a degree in Outdoor Recreation Management. I do A LOT of rock climbing, I was previously a youth climbing coach and route setter at my local gym for 3 years until I moved for school. I’m so excited to see all the returning campers and help the kids get back on the camp climbing walls!

Hi there! I’m Alex, and I’m so excited for my first summer at Camp Granite Lake! I’m from southwest Washington, where I’m currently studying to become an EMT and working as a barista. When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me volunteering as a stage manager at a local theater, trying out new recipes in the kitchen, getting lost in a good book, or planning my next travel adventure. I can’t wait to spend the summer in the mountains, making life long memories and friends with all of you!

Hi! My name is Greta, and this will be my first summer at Camp Granite Lake. I am currently studying Environmental Science & Management at Cal Poly Humboldt. I am aiming to become an environmental educator for elementary-aged children. Having grown up in Northern California, I am a big fan of all things outdoors, rain or shine. I am happiest cozied up next to a beach bonfire with a good book, and am an avid believer that socks belong with sandals. I grew up spending my winters on the slopes and summers on the water, so I can’t imagine a better way to spend Summer 2025 than at camp!

I am from San Francisco, California, and I am going overseas for college to study International Relations. I have always loved the water, so I am excited to do lots of paddle boarding and sailing on the lake but also spend some time in the ceramics studio. I can’t wait to meet all the campers and spend my summer at camp!
