RBC Raleigh Reunion
Sarah, Anna, Jessi, Alice
Counselors Sarah Thompson, Anna Myers and Alice Turner met with Jessi at Lilly’s Pizza. Sarah recently graduated from Emerson College for English. At camp she was the Senior Line Head and taught journalism, sports, and even came up with “mental sports” for the scientific/engineer-minded campers. Anna also graduated last year from NC State for Art. She taught weaving, pottery and other crafty things fitting of a crafty gal. Alice attends Elon and is about to debut a play that she wrote and directed. She got some experience play directing two summers ago at camp!
It was a good example of how camp is a unifying experience – even if you weren’t thereat the same time! Anna and Alice did not work the same years however, they still could laugh and relate to each other.
Having been around since 1921, today Rockbrook has some 4th generation campers. Some things have clearly changed with the times. For instance, there is an the Alpine Climbing Tower, electricity, and more cabins. More buildings have silly names and some traditions have grown even more richer. But the spirit of friendship, of good and spunky gal bonding, has stayed the same.
