Thankful

I hope your Thanksgiving holiday exceeded all of your expectations. I'm thankful for the burgeoning interest in the class by the class as evidenced by an uptick in subscribers. Please take a moment to email two classmates that you keep in close touch with and ask them to subscribe if they have not. The more the merrier... Feel free to post a comment if there are topics or people you would like to know more about and the investigative team will swing into action!

Patton envelope pushing

Fred* film workshops co-founders Scott Kinnamon and Ben Patton '83 visited Deerfield on November 16th, to encourage the use of filmmaking for student storytelling and narrative across the curriculum.

Great to see them and to get a better sense of what they are up to. Their work with teens is also leading to interesting opportunities for storytelling films by recent war veterans and other constituencies.

RIP Flip

Philip E Charron Jr., Deerfield Language teacher 1951-1990 just passed away on November 17. Fell free to leave thoughts as comments.

#85 surfaces

This online class note just arrived from Hardie Jackson (who wore #85 for the Big Green football team that went 7-1 in our senior year). Great to hear from him - now trying to get an email address and subscribe him to the blog!

"Hello all. I feel bad that I have been out of touch with the DA community for so long. My re-entry has been helped by having two nephews now attending DA: Mac '11 and John '14. My family and I are still in Atlanta. Left the agent world two years ago as my quality of life travelling 200 days a year was not quite what I wanted it to be! Still love the business though and have my hands on a dozen or so MLB players. Presently splitting my time between players, a real estate development company I started (good timing) and a company called Evoshield where I am part owner. Hopefully I will be more involved with DA moving forward. Glad to be back!"
