All of us at Stone Mountain Adventures are thrilled to introduce the SMA Staff Team of Summer 2025! It feels especially meaningful to kick off camp on the summer solstice—the longest day of the year—giving us even more daylight to begin building connections, creating memories, and soaking in the magic of summer. Staff training has already been incredible, filled with energy, laughter, and lots of learning as we gear up for an unforgettable season. This year’s team is a vibrant mix of returning legends and fresh new faces, all united by a passion for working with teens in the outdoors. Our staff have journeyed from across the globe—including Spain, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Australia, Mexico, and five U.S. states—bringing with them diverse perspectives, unique talents, and a contagious enthusiasm. I’m proud of this amazing group, and I feel confident that we’re on the brink of something truly extraordinary.

Introducing Matthew Dyer (aka Flat Matt)

Age: 23

Home Town: Perth, NY

Recently graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, this particular counsellor can often be found shredding the gnarly bike trails as one of our mountain biking instructors. If he isn’t living up to the self-proclaimed title “the songbird of his generation” or being mistaken for Jimmy Hendrix, you may find him skiing or instigating search parties for his sister with reindeers in blizzards. Matt’s life aspirations include, but are not limited to, living within walking distance of a Chipotle and Chikfila, performing 6 continuous backflips on a bike, and riding the whole Encilada.
