Jack Payne

  • My name is Jack
  • I’m from Columbus, Ohio
  • I am a sophomore at Ohio Wesleyan University. I am studying Business and Environmental Studies.
  • This is my first year on staff at Falling Creek
  • I’m teaching mountain biking
  • Early bird or night owl? I would say I’m a little bit of both honestly.
  • If I could live anywhere in the world for a year, I would live in Puerto Guadal, Chile because it is a very small local town close to Patagonia National Park and there are some really cool outdoor activities to do around the area.
  • My favorite way to get in exercise is to go out on mountain, road, or gravel bike rides along with going to the gym to work out if I can’t get out on my bike.
  • I think I’m the most excited to learn about how & why mountain biking is important to the campers as it has been such an important thing in my life. I’m also excited to live in the nature in and around North Carolina as I’ve always been intrigued by it.
