Colleen “Giggles” Grady is very excited to be returning as Camp Director this summer! This will be her fifth year directing camp. She is dedicated to making camp a “brave space” for girls to try new things, set personal goals, and grow in courage, confidence, and character. She believes camp should be camper-centered, experiential, hands-on, and goal-orientated for all girls.
Entering her ninth summer at Camp Wind-in-the-Pines, Giggles has previously held the positions of unit counselor, leadership director, and assistant camp director. During the school year, Giggles is a middle school music teacher. She earned her BA in Music Education from UMass Amherst, and her MM from Ithaca College in Ithaca, NY.
Giggles commits 100% to everything she does, including, but not limited to: singing, dress up days, slime obstacle courses, cookout desserts, rock climbing, sand castles, tie dye, and any other silly and over-the-top activity she can come up with! She is passionate about Girl Scouts and providing girls with new opportunities to grow as individuals in a safe, caring environment. She hopes to meet you this summer!
