| Willis Gaines (Camp Years: 1960's) has been living in Buncombe
County, NC and serving as pastor of the West Asheville Presbyterian Church
for almost two years. After not returning to “Camp” in 1969 in order to
marry Julia Taylor, the Gaines finally arrived to Will’s long desired full
time life in the Blue Ridge mountains after 34 years on the outside of
paradise. Over the years, Willis has kept up with Bill Bell, Roger Jones,
Jody Welker, the Brearly brothers – Bill and John and Bob – Carl Anderson
and others. While serving as Associate Pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church in Clinton, SC, he renewed ties with Steve and Linda Bunch. Linda’s
parents are members of that church. Jim Coleman and Dick Swetenburg, two
outstanding Clemson athletes of their day and Great Boys to boot, served
on the session of that congregation. From 1996 – 2003 Willis served the
Bishopville Presbyterian Church where the legacy of the Brearley family
took root generations ago as well as the families of Johnny English and
our beloved “Sally” Weldon of Burgess Glen. Having many occasions to visit
Charleston over the past decade, Willis renewed camp ties with his
swimming teacher and one-time senior counselor, the Right Reverend William
J. Skilton. Bishop Skilton is ever as great a guy as he was years ago, an
easy friend to have and a great pastor. It’s great to be a Great Boy!
