Grandma Runs Week-long Summer Camp for 11 Grandchildren-With Daily Menu, Activity Schedule, Homemade Trophies

Grandma Runs Week-long Summer Camp for 11 Grandchildren-With Daily Menu, Activity Schedule, Homemade Trophies
Dedicated grandma ran a week-long summer camp to bring her 11 grandchildren together, with activity schedules and homemade trophies.

A dedicated grandma has run a week-long summer camp to bring her 11 grandchildren together for daily meals, and activity schedules, with homemade trophies and gold medals.

Narnie Shyrel Mack has four daughters and takes looking after her grandchildren very seriously.

The kids, aged seven months to 18 years, live hours apart and only see each other during holidays, so she hosts a ‘camp' at her home to bring them all together.

‘Camp Narnie 2023' saw them enjoy a busy schedule of outdoor sports, games, crafts, and challenges.

The unmarried 68-year-old even went the extra mile with meal plans, homemade awards and medals for the game winners, at her four-bed home in Kingsland, Georgia.

Daughter Vycki Gaines says her mom has always been good at coming up with fun activities-and would run their local church summer camps when Vycki was young.

"I think she really enjoys it. Not just summer camps, but graduations, birthdays, church camps."

"She runs ideas by us and we have to ask ‘mom, are you sure you want to do all that?' but she always does it. This year's was the best one yet-it's definitely going to be something they'll never forget.

"It's an amazing feeling knowing whenever they go to stay at Narnie's I have nothing to worry about – in fact they never want to leave!"

The grandkids stayed for a week in July-with the exception of the baby who only came during the day-and Narnie catered to the cousins' every need. Its actually not a big house but the kids love to sleep on the floor.

The daughter didn't know she made personal schedules until she came to pick them up.

"She came up with the trophies on the spot and made homemade labels on the computer."

After sharing videos of ‘Camp Narnie' online, people were amazed at Shyrel's effort.

"We always knew she was special, but I didn't realize how many people go without that until I started reading the comments.

"It was heartwarming, because my mom has always been the family's backbone-she keeps us on our toes and keeps our heads held high."

@vyckigaines So Blessed that mine and my sisters' children are able to experience this kind of love from our Mom 💙 She kept all of her Grandbabies for the week and called it "Narnie Camp". She made a full schedule, menu, and awards for everyone. And kids had a blast! #summer #grandmotherslove #summercamp #kidsoftiktok #fyp ♬ Summertime (Instrumental) - DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince
