Mollie was a first session camper in 1979, and 1982 on Sperry. She started working at camp in 1987 on the waterfront where she worked for 5 years, and one year as a unit staff. When camp moved to Johns Island, Mollie came back in 2000 to help lead a Sailing Big Trip. In 2001 Mollie was the Assistant Program Director and Program Director from 2002 – 2011, and program supervisor in 2012 during the directors’ transition. Mollie has been an Advisory Board Member since 2001 and a Board Member since 2014. “One of my proudest moments is seeing campers become staff and carry on the program and traditions I helped rebuild on Johns Island.” Mollie lives in Seattle and grew up on the water and in a family of sailors. When not on the water she enjoys hiking, visiting museums, creating in her studio, and spending time with family and friends. She currently participates on the Connections, C5, Development, Finance, Site, and Financial Aid committees.
