Challenge Day - Wednesday, May 28, 2025

By this point in Junior Camp, we are seeing these campers really start to thrive. Camp is an amazing experience. It builds resilience, confidence, social skills, and spiritual growth… and it’s also just plain fun! Both campers and counselors feel the impact when they are in this kind of encouraging, joy-filled community.

We see it in different ways. We hear the eager chatter in the Dining Hall during meals. We watch them ask other campers instead of counselors where classes are located in camp. We listen to the silence in camp when the counselors are leading their girls in a devotion at Lights Out.

Jimboy’s Breakfast Club: Jimboy explained the easiest way to focus on Spiritual Growth is through Prayer and just talking to God whenever you have a moment. Side note: This was the second day in a row that his “short” story joke fell flat to the campers. The counselors had to explain the punch line! Ask your campers about the “Instinct” joke on your car ride home Friday!

Time for the details: Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs, Sausage Patties, Homemade Biscuits, Fruit Bar

Lunch: BLT Sandwiches, Cheese Slices, Homebaked Bread, Salad Bar

Dinner: House-made pizzas, Salad Bar, Shoppe

Weather: Partly cloudy with a high of 75–perfect weather for camp!

Many of you may wonder about Shoppe at Greystone. We offer Shoppe 3 times at Junior camp on nights that we don’t have dessert. The girls can go to Shoppe and choose a small candy bar, Ice Cream or savory snack like Goldfish. They love this special treat, and we love seeing them enjoy it playing, talking, and laughing with their friends.

One quick note on photos: we have an incredible professional photographer here for the last few days of the session. You may see some of his photos pop up on our social media or Blog! We’ll post his photos all together at the end of the session, so look for those later in the week.

We will see you back here tomorrow - we are having a GREAT time at camp!
