Baird...yeah, its a weird name...

Hey guys!

I'm Baird Blackley. Baird is pronounced like the animal-Bear, but with a D on the end. (But obviously not spelled that way, because that would be beard...)

I am originally from Shelby, NC-a small town in western NC. I am currently in Greenville, NC and am entering my senior year of school at East Carolina University. I am a Family and Community Services major and DO NOT know what I want to be doing at this point next year. haha. I am a Young Life leader at South Central High School here in Greenville. I am also babysitting machine---my days are pretty much made up of class, babysitting, and Young Life. :)

I enjoy being outdoors and would love to just play outside all day long! I love hiking, kayaking, running, water sports, frisbee--really anything active.

I am excited to come to the good old WG in just 5 weeks! I know Summer Staff will challenge me to grow in my relationship with the Lord-and I look forward to that. I have been able to see God working in my life this summer through relationships and time with my Young Life girls. A challenge in my life allowing time for the Lord to use me. I tend to pack my schedule full, so I know that I limit myself in my ability to serve at times.

I am so so so excited to meet you all and escape to Windy Gap and serve for 3 weeks!


This is me on a hiking/kayaking/caving/rock climbing trip I went on last year.

oh, and I have my own blog that I sometimes remember to update. :) Feel free to check it out... http://marthabaird.blogspot.com/
