Noel is well known in the camping profession for developing the highest standards of staff selection as well as implementing some of the most unique and creative Evening Activities and Special Events. To say Noel has a passion for camp is an understatement. He truly lives for camping. His creativity and love for children are on display every day at camp, especially when he personally runs many of our All-Camp Evening Activities and Special Events. Georgeann, or “George” as every one knows her, is a warm, loving woman who has been the heart and soul of Camp Wayne for Girls for the past 30 years. While still spending her summers at Wayne and directing our Health Center, George now happily devotes most of her time to doting on her four grandchildren.

She is an energetic, dynamic and devoted camp director with camping in her blood. Our campers and counselors love having Adena available to talk with and really appreciate the creativity she brings to every aspect of camp.
