You might have heard that a Deerfield trustee is giving $35K worth of "prize money" to the top three classes in Deerfield's April Donor Challenge. The Challenge is a simple count of donations by unique donors received in the month. If you are planning on making a gift to DA by June 30 (the fiscal year end), consider making it in the next two weeks (or even now). If you've already given to DA since Sept 1, 2009 - you could still help '83 compete by giving a nominal gift ($8.30 perhaps?).
The Class of '79 currently leads the contest but there are two weeks left. Mailed gifts to PO Box 306, Deerfield, MA 01342 need to be postmarked by April 30.
Consider it the blog's attempt to monetize - or a voluntary subscription to encourage your editor to continue to deliver high quality (?) content on all things Deerfield '83. I could certainly use the encouragement...:)
