Geoff Bennett and Doug Schmidt see JK in NYC

With apologies for breaking my cardinal rule and forgetting to take a picture, it was great to see Geoff and Doug at the 1797 Society dinner in NYC. Geoff's fund has merged with a larger one but he is still focused on Japan and East Asia - and he travels to NYC regularly now from his home (and wife and 4 kids) in San Francisco.

Schmidt claims he will recive his first paycheck in years today - we wish him a hearty congratulations and will expect a scaned image as proof! Also the networker, Schmidt does indeed seem energized by his new employment. Go get 'em JD!

Knight, once again, was forced to dine on delicious food and schmooze with scads of Deerfield alums and parents. Long day at "the office".

Kudos to Chris Waddell '87

A bit of a departure for the '83 blog, but this is indeed incredible. To summit Kilamanjaro as a parapalegic takes you know what...

News Flash: Crow family visits DA!

Yup, that's Peter Crow and his son Jack flanked by John Knight and Eric Suher (aka the welcoming committee) today, October 6th. Not pictured because she is taking the picture - Pete's wife Sarah. Always a happening when a classmate returns to campus!!!

Sox or Yankees? Averill has a thought...

Freshly stolen off of Facebook, looks like the Averill family rests firmly on the side of the Sox as they attended the last regular season home game at Fenway Pahk! Great to see Chris again - hope he sends some news to jknight@deerfield.edu someday!
