Lex McDonald

  • My name is Alexander McDonald
  • I’m known as Lex
  • I’m from Hendersonville, NC
  • I’m currently attending Blue Ridge Community College, pursuing a degree in CNC Machining.
  • I was a camper for 9 years (’15-’23)
  • This is my first year on staff at Falling Creek
  • I’ll be a D.A.S.H. member and teach blacksmithing and woodworking
  • Early bird or night owl? I am a night owl.
  • If I had my own late night talk show, I would invite Formula 1 World Champion Sir Lewis Hamilton, I would do this because he could answer all the questions I have for Formula 1 and its difficulties.
  • My favorite Holiday is Halloween, Mostly because of the candy.
  • If I coul live anywhere in the world for a year, I would live in Monaco, because it is a beautiful town on the coast of the Mediterranean. I would love to live there.
  • My favorite way to get in some exercise is by walking to and from places. Saves me money on gas, but also allows me to relax and take in the mountains around where I live.
  • Fun Fact: This will be my tenth year on the mountain. First as a staff member, what a ride it has been!
  • I’m most looking forward to getting to help out in my favorite activities and being able to get a even closer behind the scenes look at camp.
