Lorenzo Wilborn

Youth Director

Lorenzo Wilborn, GPRC Youth Director, has several years experience working with children in a diverse range of settings. A graduate of Texas A&M University with a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology, specializing in Outdoor Education, he has had the pleasure of working with summer camps as an instructor for multiple activities such as rock climbing, canoeing, and rappelling. He served in the United States Army as a medic for three years before returning to finish his degree.

He began his teaching career in the Houston Independent School District for Camp Olympia Outdoor Education Center. He reports: “This unique environment allowed us to teach different subjects for the fifth graders who would stay with us for a week in cabins and use the outdoors instead of a classroom.

I believe that student involvement in their own learning process is crucial. Therefore, I am a strong advocate for hands on learning. I hope to positively impact children with a desire to accumulate knowledge and to make learning an enjoyable experience.
