End of an era...

The massive green and white tent used for commencement and reunions is down...and out.

Legend has it that then Prince Abdullah graduated under it when it was new in 1980, but the unofficially 32 year old canvas tent is now retired. This roughly 24" X 24" piece will be preserved in the Deerfield Academy archives.

A new, vinyl tent will begin its service next year and the color scheme is TBD!

Any suggestions?
