Sunny Durocher

  • My name is Sunny
  • I’m from Chesterfield, Michigan
  • I am currently a nanny to very tiny humans! When I am not doing that, I’m out living life to the fullest—travelling the world, driving across the country, “building my lore” as one might say.
  • This is my 3rd year on staff at Falling Creek (’24-’26)
  • I’m teaching WEMA during the second half of the summer
  • My favorite magical animal is for sure ol’ Smokey the Bear. I just really appreciate his can-do attitude and his spirit for adventure. He’s really just out here empowering the leader in all of us. I know that, even on the days when we can’t light fires, there will always be a fire burning in Smokey’s heart.
  • A few years ago I checked off the only thing on my bucket list: I drove four hours to wade in a cranberry bog, lived my best Ocean Spray dreams, and then turned around and drove straight back home. 100% worth it.
  • My favorite sandwich? While a sandwich is a winning food no matter which way you slice it (triangles is the only correct answer), if I had to pick a favorite sandwich, mine would have to be: a grape Smucker’s Uncrustable, still slightly frozen, taken straight out of a cooler on a hot, sunny day. I don’t know what all those preservatives are actually preserving, but joy is certainly included.
  • This year I’m trying to make a daily habit out of being slightly cooler than I was the day before. Some days it’s easier than others, but I always try to stay on that grind. I’ve started saying things like, “I’m just really big into physical media,” and memorizing all the words to “DtMF”, so I think I’m making serious progress!
