In a busy world, this evening will create a gentle pause—space for young people and older adults to meet, talk, laugh, and make something beautiful together. It’s a chance to honour the wisdom of our seniors, uplift their spirits, and show our youth the joy of giving their time and attention.

Each table had the question “What are you thankful for?” to spark conversations, and there was a wall where students could draw their friends. We ended the night by giving thank-you letters to each of our guests for their participation in the event.

Even when the score isn’t in our favor, love shows up: showing respect for the game, lifting each other’s spirits, and choosing unity over frustration. That’s love in action—Love is a Verb.

Together with the residents, our students painted side-by-side, crafted lovely bracelets, and brightened the space with fresh flowers and heartfelt smiles. The simple acts of sharing time and creating together led to unforgettable memories and meaningful conversations.

Love isn’t just something we feel — it’s something we do. At GRFS, we believe that Love is a Verb, and this visit was a beautiful example of how kindness can bloom across generations.

Ten of our Grade 9 students took part in this dynamic experience, where they were divided into three teams and spent 75 minutes competing in a variety of games—from a laser maze and basketball challenges to colour grid puzzles and more. The energy was high, the teamwork was strong, and the laughter was non-stop. At the end of the event, some students proudly exchanged their points for fun rewards like water bottles and keychains.

This event reminded us that Love is a Verb when we invest time in uplifting one another, strengthening friendships, and celebrating every step of growth—especially when it’s this fun!

This wasn’t just a getaway — it was a meaningful journey where young minds explored not only the outdoors, but also the values of responsibility, friendship, and character.

Highlights from the Camp:
• Campfire chats under the stars (with marshmallows, of course!)
• Friendly football and volleyball matches in the fresh spring air
• Strategic chess showdowns and reading circles with thought-provoking topics
• Group reflections on life, ethics, and identity
• Daily seminars and deep conversations in a cozy lakeside cabin
• Shared responsibilities like meal prep to build team spirit
• A magical sunset over Lake Huron — nature’s perfect finale

We wrapped up with full hearts, new bonds, and stronger values. With 21 amazing participants and a team of dedicated mentors, this camp reminded us: growth is a group journey.

Because at GRFS, Love is a verb.
