Supporting the Next Generation of Alleghany Leaders
Camp Alleghany has been an important part of the Ey family for more than 80 years. It was at Camp where Joyce began developing the leadership skills that would benefit her throughout her life.
Read Joyce's Alleghany Story
In the mid-1940s, Joyce and her mother, Bernice Sullivan, attended as camper and counselor and eventually both as counselors. Joyce was skilled on the rifle range and tennis courts. Bernice taught land sports and served as Junior Camp Director.
Joyce fondly remembered the day in August 1945 when, while on the tennis court at Camp, the announcement of the surrender of Japan in World War II was made. What a joyous time at Camp during those hard years.
Joyce was a consummate Alleghany recruiter, hosting Cooper Dawson's traveling slide show in the Ey home each year.
Joyce truly became the matriarch of generations of Eys attending Camp, working as counselors, serving on the Green Team, and serving as Camp Doctors.
Across four generations, the Ey family has enjoyed more than 30 summers on the Greenbrier and received a lifetime of friendships and memories.
Joyce passed away in 2026 at the age of 96. Her children established this fund as a lasting memorial to her life, leadership, and enduring connection to Camp Alleghany.
