Baley and Claire met at McKinney Roughs Nature Preserve in the summer of 2016 at camp RYLA. This camp is Rotary-sponsored and aims to develop young leaders through team-building and self-discovery. Here, Claire and Baley are their best selves: vulnerable, compassionate, and authentic. It was in this enriching environment where their friendship began. Two years later after many, many “friend dates,” Baley and Claire began their romantic journey together. They explored coffee shops, went on camping trips, jammed out at concerts, and continuously learned new things about one another. After 5 wonderful years of being together, Claire and Baley are ready to celebrate a life-long commitment to each other, surrounded by everyone they love!
