This Is The Greatest Show!
The Greatest Showman… who has seen it?
If you haven’t, watch it today! I absolutely LOVE IT, mostly because of the opening sequence, which I think is the best movie opening I have ever seen . Hugh Jackman (the ringmaster) is under the grandstand just before the show begins. The audience is stomping their feet in time to the music and he is still as a rock. His adrenaline is pumping and he is about to run into the center of the circus tent and open the Greatest Show on Earth… so cool! I feel just like that… the counselors feel like that… we hope you feel that way too.
Camp is the best, most fun, most inspirational, most sublime and joy filled experience that a girl can have. It is an experience marked by friends that are celebrated from the first introductions on the softball field to the last tear streaked goodbye on closing day. It is an experience marked by nonstop fun in activities that allow one to fly through the air, create art, hone skills, and simply play. An experience marked by unexpected moments of delight to be celebrated for a lifetime. An experience of whole camp dance parties and peaceful naps. An experience of inspiration where the love of God if felt in a tangible way. An experience that is almost perfect.
The Greatest Show Indeed!
We Can’t Wait for Main Camp… for Main Camp is the pinnacle of the Greystone mountain. This is going to be a special summer, 99 has never been a better number to claim as your own!
A few suggestions:
- Arrive between 7:30 and 8:30, we release you to claim a bunk at 8:30 sharp!
- Wear shoes that can get wet (the grass is always damp and there is a chance of rain for that morning).
- Smile a lot (of course).
- Get excited! (Ditto!)
Thank you for choosing Greystone. We are honored to be a part of your summer plans. For 99 years my family has been blessed to do this work and we work hard to get better at it every single year. We think this is the Greatest Show on earth and hope you will agree!
This is going to be your best summer ever!
