Camp Greystone

Camp Greystone plans and conducts everything to positively affect four key areas of every girl's life: the spiritual, the physical, the mental and the social. The camp is a Christian summer camp for girls located in the mountains on Lake Edith near Tuxedo, N.C. Greystone has always been a camp with a purpose and a definite four-part plan to make that purpose work. The spiritual aspect involves the camp helping campers develop the desire to find a strong faith and personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Learning new activities and perfecting old skills are what the camp pushes every day through the physical aspect. The mental aspect showcases Greystone s dedication to helping girls develop a positive mental attitude. Rounding out the plan is the social aspect because the camp is organized by the idea that learning to get along with others is a must for every girl.
