Owner/Director – Casey Thurman
I never missed a summer as a camper and counselor from seven years old until graduating from college. Before coming to Glen Arden as director in 1980, I was an undergraduate of Wesleyan College with a degree in Religious Education. Upon graduation I worked with the American Red Cross in Korea. While returning to the United States we traveled around the world for a year, experiencing 30 countries. After singing with Robert Shaw and the original Chamber Chorus of the Atlanta Symphony for four years, I returned to Europe to attend the Mozarteum. Then I sang professionally in the Theatre an der Wien. I came back to the US for a master's degree in voice from the University of Illinois. In 1974 a position as an assistant professor of voice at Wesleyan College resulted in a tenured post which I continued until returning to Glen Arden.

Assistant Director – Elizabeth “Liz” McIntosh
My sister, Amy, and I came to Glen Arden for our first summer in 1969. We happily attended every summer after that until we were too old to be campers! I went through the Glen Arden JCT program and became a counselor. After two years as the JCT counselor, I joined Casey in administration in 1985 as the Head Counselor. Casey and I have worked together every summer since except the two summers I stayed home to have my children, Elizabeth and Jack. Husband Dan, Elizabeth, Jack, and I live in Winter Park, Florida. During the school year, I hold the position of Director of Alumni Relations at Trinity Preparatory School.

Special Programs Coordinator – Eugenie Heebe
Eugenie spent her summers at Glen Arden as a camper, JCT, and counselor from 1980-1992. Her eclectic work experience includes first mate, landscaper, outdoor education instructor, program coordinator and researcher for Save the Children Federation, Inc., and Peace Corps volunteer in Senegal. We are happy to have Eugenie at Glen Arden as the director of our mountaineering program, AHA and WOW.
