Camp Whispering Pines
Susan “Twinkie” Berry
Twinkie is the camp director for Camp Whispering Pines. She is a lifetime member of Girl Scouts who has led several Girl Scout troops over the years, currently Troop 10364 in Northfield, NH. She was recognized with the Thanks Badge in 2015 and the Adult Appreciation Award in 1996. She’s been a troop product sales coordinator, a community product sales coordinator, and a volunteer support coordinator for the council. She was also named Volunteer of the Month in June 2016.
Berry is a retired English teacher who worked at Tilton Middle School for 28 years. She has long run Camp Whispering Pines and loves being at camp.
“The best part is seeing the girls get excited,” she said. “I love their enthusiasm.”
As a longtime trainer and facilitator, Berry has led the Basic Outdoor Living Skills class dozens of times and spreads her own enthusiasm to everyone.
Her nickname, Twinkie, comes from a mouse character in a children’s book she created many years ago, rather than the popular snack cake.
