Hi, my name is Anna Brown and this will be my first summer at Rockbrook ever! I am incredibly excited to be a part of this wonderful community and get to know all the incredible people who will be there! I am a third year psychology major at the University of Georgia with a minor in American Sign Language, and after I finish my degree in the fall I plan to attend graduate school to become a licensed practicing counselor! I love to read, to journal, to do yoga, and to listen to all types of music. While this will be my first experience as a camp counselor, I have always loved getting to know people, learning about their lives, and being there through the hard times and the healing. I am beyond excited to get to Rockbrook and to see what this summer brings!!

Hey!,I’m Amy. This is my first year at Rockbrook and I’m so excited. I first meet Laura and Casey at the Camp America recruitment fair in Edinburgh last November (2023). A little bit about me is I was born in Hull, England but moved to Aberdeen, Scotland when i was 2 years old. Some of my favourite things to do is making memories with my family. Growing up me and my family did a lot of camping on our caravan. It was super fun. Another of my favourite things to do is let out my creative side. I love to do craft projects and I find it very therapeutic. I can’t wait to meet you all and to have a fantastic summer together!!

Hey there, hi there! My name is Sophie, and this will be my 9th summer at Rockbrook. I am a rising junior studying Anthropology and French at WashU, and I’m originally from Atlanta, GA. At school, I play on the quiz bowl team and arrange music and sing with my a cappella group, Mosaic Whispers. At home, I love to sew, take yoga classes, and spend time with my cats, Cosmo and Otis. At camp I’m best known for singing as loudly as possible during meals and having my hands covered in tie-dye from teaching Hodge Podge! I can’t wait to meet you all in the heart of a wooded mountain for another great summer.

Hello readers, I am part of this year’s international staff coming all the way from Scotland! This will be my first time at a summer camp and my first time in the USA, so this is all new to me. I grew up spending many summers camping with my family, this set me up for my love of the outdoors so I can’t wait to see Rockbrook camp in real life. I can’t wait for the new camp routine and live my best camp life! I am ready to bring lots of laughs and good vibes to Camp (I don’t take life too seriously) and hopefully learn a thing or two myself along the way.

Greta Fry

My name is Greta, I am 18 (turning 19 at camp!) and I have lived in Nottingham, England my whole life. I come from a family of 5, with two older sisters. We have always been a quite close-knit and outdoorsy, so sports and outdoor activities have been a big part of my childhood. I have a dog and cat that I adore, and really enjoy being around animals.

I am really excited about working at Rockbrook this summer, not only because I have never been America but I also really enjoy meeting new people and experiencing new environments. I am hoping to be a good, enthusiastic role model to the girls, and I am sure I will learn a thing or two from them!

Looking forward to meeting you all 🙂

I’m from the UK and currently in my first year at University. I actually saw Camp America advertised on instagram and I immediately knew that I would be spending my summer “across the pond”. I actually met our wonderful staff director Laura at a job fair in Edinburgh and just knew there and then that Rockbrook is where I needed to be!!! I’m super excited to come across and be a Rockbrook girl, I just know it’s going to be amazing. We’re all going to have an amazing time and I can tell it’s going to be the best summer ever – it’s especially exciting for me because I used to do Rainbows; Brownies and Girl guides, which were some of the best years of my life and I’ve always wanted to go back!! So this is sort of a dream come true.

I am a bubbly, outgoing, fun loving, slightly crazy girl (who will forever be 7 at heart) and I’m constantly moving, dancing and full of energy – although I do love my sleep as well. I know for a fact that you’ll all be able to hear my laugh from the other side of camp when we’re there, I’d say sorry but I’m not because that just means we’re all having a fun time!!!
I hope to bring some of my energy and giggles to every person at Rockbrook and I can’t wait to meet every single one of you!!! We’re going to have the best time, I’ll make sure of it!!!
I’m buzzing!!!!!!

As a child, my siblings and I spent most of each summer with my grandparents (retired school teachers) where we grew up in Southern California. They encouraged us to be creative, silly, brave, and to try new things! We dressed in costumes, put on magic shows, baked cookies, practiced our fishing casts in the pool, built race cars using my grandpa’s red dolly, went on camping trips…this was my summer camp!

As I prepare for my second summer at Rockbrook, I feel happy to be a part of this team of kind and caring humans who help to create this magical space for campers to let go and be their true selves. I am looking forward to seeing the new and familiar faces of this summer’s campers and staff, and getting to spend another summer as a part of this incredible community – the Rockbrook Community. <3
