Rockbrook 2025

Hiiii! I’m so excited to be back at Rockbrook this summer after being unavailable to come back last summer. This will be my 9th summer at camp, my 4th on staff, and I can’t wait to see everyone’s smiling faces again. A little bit about me, I’m from Richmond, VA, and I’m a rising senior at Christopher Newport University, where I study Applied Math. At camp, you can often find me teaching climbing at the alpine tower, swimming in the lake during free swim, or sitting on a lodge porch working on my friendship bracelets. One of my favorite parts about camp, as someone who has been going for many years, is that each year I always make new friends. Simply being in the Rockbrook environment provides you with the connections to make lifelong friends. I hope everyone finds their chocolate chip cookie friend this summer!

Hi my name is Georgia and I am born and raised in Washington D.C! I look forward to escaping the busy city every summer to spend time up in the mountains. My mom and older sister both went to Rockbrook, and I cannot wait for my nineth summer in the heart of the wooded mountains! one of my favorite things to do is running, and it is a great way to explore the city, at camp I look forward to the challenge of the Rockbrook runners loop. Going to camp for nine years has brought me some of my best friends in the whole world and I cannot imagine camp life without them. The community and traditions are truly one of a kind and I cannot wait to be back!!

Hi!!!! I am Emmy and I am SO excited for another AMAZING summer at camp! I’m from Marietta, GA and I just finished my freshman year at Auburn University (WAR EAGLE!). During the school year I miss camp so much and am so excited to go back! This will be my 5th summer at Rockbrook and I could not be more excited! I can’t wait to live in the mountains again and spread the love I’ve found for Rockbrook with everyone. Everything from the refreshing lake, to muffin breaks, singing camp songs at meals, to free swims and tennis all day, and getting to watch the sunset every evening has truly become my dream summer and I would not want to be anywhere else. I cannot wait to be back at Rockbrook this summer and I cannot wait to see everyone again and make so many new friends!

WHOA there! I am so excited to be coming back to Rockbrook for my 4th summer. I can’t wait to be reading books on the hill and chatting about all the fascinating plants we see in on the trail in Wilderness Hiking and Outdoor Adventure (WHOA).

I’m originally from London, England, but have lived in North Carolina since I was fourteen. Rockbrook is an incredible second home to me, and I can’t wait to see our community come back together in the mountains this summer!

Hi everyone! I’m Lavinia Maybank, but I’m commonly known at camp as Maybae– a nickname given to me my first year at camp. I was born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina, but now live in Boulder, Colorado, where attend the University of Colorado! I just finished my first year as a political science major, and hope to become a lawyer in the future.

I love spending as much time as possible outdoors– whether thats hiking, kayaking, rafting, or stargazing! This will be my first year on staff at RBC, but my 10th year returning after being a camper for nine. I am absolutely thrilled to be back in the heart of a wooded mountain, giving back to the camp community that gave me such a beautiful space to grow, connect with nature, and make lifelong friends.

At camp, you can find me by the lake, star gazing on the hill, or on the porch of the Junior Lodge making a friendship bracelet, reading, or talking to friends and campers. I can’t wait for the best year yet!!

Hi!!!! I am Ana and I am so excited for an AMAZING summer at camp! I’m from Columbia, SC and I just finished my second year at Clemson University (GO TIGERS!). This will be my first time ever at Rockbrook and I am SO excited! I can’t wait to meet the campers and staff!!. I am really excited to be in the mountains and working the waterfront!!

Hey There, Hi There. My name is Sammy, and I am soooooo excited to meet everyone this summer! This is my 7th year at camp, and Rockbrook is my favorite place on earth. I grew up in Decatur, Georgia, right outside of Atlanta, and moved to Massachusetts right before I started high school. I absolutely love everything about camp life, but specifically am looking forward to meeting so many new friends this summer, and having long conversations on the Jodge (Junior Lodge) Porch! As a camper, I went on almost every trip at Rockbrook, so if you have any questions, I’m your gal!

I spent four months living in Colorado and Utah this fall, and am so excited to bring my new skills to camp, and talk about everything nature! My favorite part about camp is how authentic everyone and everything are. Each person can be entirely themselves and find out what that means during their time in the wooded mountains. I am so excited for kayaking in the lake, muffin break, climbing the alpine tower, and being in my home once again!

A quick piece of wisdom after my many summers: It is scary to come to camp, but the minute you roll up the driveway to Rockbrook, you will feel right at home! Everyone is here to cheer you on, so be yourself and have fun. Ask for help if you need it, because we all need a hug sometimes. I can’t wait to see all my old friends and make some new ones as well!

Hi friends! This will be first summer ever at Rockbrook, and I am SO excited to join the family. This May, I graduated from Agnes Scott College (a historically women’s college in GA!) with a B.A. in Psychology and a minor in English. I was also a college athlete, running cross country and track in the NCAA. Before I began running, I was also a gymnast for six years! I LOVE the mountains and all things outdoors, and I am so excited to get to know this year’s campers. I have experienced first-hand the magical things that can happen when girls and women all come together, and am pumped to bring this joy to RBC with me! See you soon!

Hey there, hi there! I am beyond excited to be back for another magical summer at Rockbrook! Rockbrook is my haven and home away from home, and a summer spent at camp never fails to re-energize my spirit. Here I can be my silliest, most authentic self, which you will no doubt witness, as my role as Assistant Director means I get to be out playing in camp with you! You’ll find me this summer rockin’ a costume or performing a skit announcing all the fun special events we have planned for you.

Since last summer, I’ve started working as an assistant teacher at Mountain Sun Community School here in Brevard. Being in a school environment not only reinforced my love of being around kids, but also the importance of camp. Here at camp time slows down, we get to play outside and try new things, and all are encouraged to be their most authentic selves. I love this fairyland of beauty with all my heart! See you soon!
