Gideon Koehring

  • My name is Gideon
  • I’m from Waynesville North Carolina, but I grew up in Cairo, Egypt and Amman, Jordan.
  • I’m a student at Haywood early College and I am getting associates in science, but wanting to focus on economics
  • I was a camper for 9 years (’16-’19, ’21-’25)
  • This is my first year on staff at Falling Creek
  • I’m a DASH team member and teaching Outdoor Skills and Blacksmithing
  • My favortie sandwich is a panini with mayo, cheddar, tomato, and ham on sourdough. This is the best sandwich, because of the cheese and the mayo and tomato keep it from being dry
  • Something I’m currently trying to make a habit is waking up earlier
  • The best present I’ve ever received is my Garmin watch, because I use it multiple times every day.
