Hi, my name is Mayrant Gonwa and I am from Jackson, MS. I am a freshman at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. I can’t wait to be a counselor at Greystone! I am looking forward to teaching cooking/archery and growing in my faith this summer!
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6
Personal Interests: anything outdoors! swimming, riding horses, hanging out with friends, cooking, archery, etc
When I have an hour of free time, I like to… go to the barn and see my horse or play with my dogs!
Something you wouldn’t guess about me: I have a horse.
The emoji that describes me: the smiley emoji with these eyes ><
The one thing that makes any day better: a good meal
Best camp tradition? banquet
Favorite Evening Program? Sunday concerts
The camp food I can’t wait to eat is… the bread pudding!
Item that I MUST bring to Camp with me: a watch and a good book
My go-to pump up song: beauty and a beat by Justin Berber
The best book I’ve read this year: A Time to Kill
My guilty pleasure: watching the bachelor/bachelorette
The most famous person I’ve met is… Deion Sanders
My favorite cheesy joke: What did the yoga instructor say when her landlord tried to evict her? “Namaste”
I wanted to work at Greystone because… When I was younger I always looked up to the counselors at Greystone and wanted to be one too.
The best thing about camp will be… Getting to know the campers and other counselors!
