HEADMASTER’S CORNER

Allow me to move over and invite the New England Association of Schools and Colleges to occupy my normal space in Scenes. Every ten years they evaluate the Academy, a task they have performed for New England’s schools and colleges since 1885. From our 1792 perspective, they look like newcomers, but throughout the world, the Association is recognized as a paragon of academic and institutional expertise. I am pleased and exceptionally proud to present the following excerpts, verbatim, from their report. In choosing the passages to include, I have sought a representative balance of commendation and recommendation. “While the Academy’s mission does not appear on banners that proclaim it throughout the school, the visiting committee felt its centrality all around campus. Diversity is represented in several ways: an international student population that has grown significantly since the last self-study ten years ago, but also by different kinds of student backgrounds and needs in the day and boarding student populations. Respect and affection for a talented faculty and staff were apparent as the visiting committee interviewed administrators, parents, students, and members of the board of trustees. That the academic program is appropriately challenging and fosters an effective setting in which learning and growth take place is supported by the impressive list of colleges and universities attended by recent graduates as well as by the many levels of support offered by the core academic, English to Speakers of Other Languages, technical arts, special education, and other programs. A commitment to community is manifested in the expanding opportunities enumerated in the self-study.” “The visiting committee notes a pattern of thoughtful governance work that has contributed in important ways to the stability and success of Fryeburg Academy.”

Dan Lee-Headmaster-Fryeburg Academy since 1993

“The board has been engaged in self-reflection and plans to continue the productive retreats that have resulted in goals that will assist the board in achieving and maintaining the mission of the Academy. Board efforts to adopt additional best practices for private school boards are evidenced by a comprehensive board self-study in October 2009 and in the implementation of recommendations from that work.” “The campus master plan was updated in 2009 with implementation of the plan to proceed for the next ten to twenty years. The trustees’ role in the planning and construction of the new gymnasium after a devastating fire in 2005 is evidence of their commitment to provide the necessary resources to support the operations of the school.” “The visiting committee commends the board’s strategic planning that has focused on financial management, fund-raising for campus and program improvements, and public relations and admissions.” “The visiting committee commends the board’s remarkable sense of pride in and respect for Fryeburg Academy and its mission.” “Fryeburg Academy offers a rich and well-designed program to a notably diverse student population. The academic program is appropriately extensive in scope, with course offerings ranging from remedial skill-building courses in the early years to upper-level courses that offer intellectual challenges commensurate with college courses. Additionally, the Academy offers alternative academic programs, notably the Pequawket Valley Alternative School, serving students who run the risk of dropping out of or failing at secondary school.” “Co-curricular programs at Fryeburg Academy are varied and well supported. With the construction of the performing arts center, the athletic facility, and the library, the campus invites participation of students in life outside the academic arena. The arts program – in particular the music program – is rich in participation and achievement. The athletic program offers an array of sports at the varsity level and below, allowing students to participate at an appropriate level, as well as fitness activities that take advantage of excellent facilities. Residential students make full use of these facilities as well as the library, where many spend their afternoon activity time doing academic work.” “The visiting committee observed that Fryeburg Academy is dedicated at all levels to insure that individual students have a positive experience. With dedicated administration, faculty and staff, student need is identified promptly and program modifications are made frequently to insure the success of all students. This has been made evident through improvements that have been made as a result of the school’s self-study. Examples include “KEY” meetings that have been implemented to provide for a forum for discussion of student concern and the introduction of the Naviance system to assist students, faculty and families with the college selection process. In addition, additional support

has been made available to students through the recently established behavioral program.” “The visiting committee commends Fryeburg Academy for a climate that is positive and inclusive. Students have a commitment to the school, feel supported and are happy in the program. Many demonstrate impressive leadership and support the diversity that exists in the school.” “The visiting committee commends Fryeburg Academy staff for the caring support they give to residential students and for their investment in the residential program. Many consistently contribute time, energy, and skills, viewing their time in the dormitories as an opportunity to make a contribution to the students’ growth. In addition to providing necessary supervision, they offer additional assistance to individual students and provide extra-curricular activities based on their own and the students’ interests.” “The visiting committee commends Fryeburg Academy for the weekend activity program, which provides opportunities for students to explore New England through a wide variety of experiences, as well as recreational and cultural activities created by the recent expansion of facilities.” “There is a tension that exists between the autonomy of faculty who teach in an independent school and the inherent regulations and restrictions that come from state and local levels. While the faculty feels the self-study has helped illuminate positive qualities and identify issues to address, many feel there are not enough occasions for the flow of ideas from the bottom up. As new ideas about policies and program decisions are made, more opportunities for clearer and more frequent dialogue between the administration and faculty are desired. Faculty seek more dialogue around ideas, policies and programs.” “The campus is truly an impressive sight. The addition of the new buildings has not compromised the historical character of the old. The Academy has a small college atmosphere, with new buildings inspiring a sense of pride on the part of faculty and students. From the devastation of the October 2005 gymnasium fire, the Academy has emerged renewed and stronger. State-of-the-art facilities enhance student learning and make Fryeburg Academy the cultural and educational center of the town.” “Building on the strong fundraising of the Phoenix Project, which raised $16 million to rebuild the campus, the Academy aspires to raise $30 million in its next capital campaign drive. Slated for new construction projects are the Alumni House, residential life, academics, the alternative program, athletics, and admission. Long and short term plans are slated to begin as early as 2011 and to be completed by 2020. These include plans in place to build new faculty housing, a renovation to the alumni building, and a new student center and dining hall. Classrooms will take the place of the old cafeteria and student center, while the dormitories will benefit from the new faculty housing as there will be an additional eight beds per building. The alternative program is slated to get new classroom space better suited for the program.” MAJOR RECOMMENDATIONS “The visiting committee recommends that Fryeburg Academy re-examine its approaches to evaluation of employees.” “The visiting committee recommends continued focus on communication within the Academy.” “The visiting committee recommends ongoing, systematic curriculum review in the form of a well-articulated, school-wide curriculum plan.” “The visiting committee recommends that the energy created by recent positive steps resolving some technology challenges be harnessed in service of the school’s two technology plans, now in an early state of implementation.” MAJOR COMMENDATIONS “Fryeburg Academy is an exemplary, mission-driven school, providing an impressive range of services in support of a strikingly diverse student population. The Academy is characterized by a positive, inclusive culture that is apparent throughout the campus.” “The Academy’s talented faculty demonstrates impressive commitment to students and to the institution.” “Over the decade between the last self-study and the current selfstudy, the Academy has responded to urgent needs by renewing and transforming its campus, the care of which reflects the ongoing efforts of a dedicated staff. The commitment on the part of the administration and the board of trustees to garnering the resources that made this transformation possible is remarkable and it has created momentum for further improvements in the near future.” Dan Lee, Headmaster

PUBLIC RELATIONS & ANNUAL GIVING Loyalty...a definition - Bion R. Cram ‘33 - an FA student whose life was so positively affected by Fryeburg Academy and the influence of another alum, Harvey Dow Gibson 1898, that in return for that friendship and help, Bion, after a life of achievement and happiness, paid it forward. He paid it forward, actually...right back to the place that made the biggest difference in his life - Fryeburg Academy. In so doing, he reaffirmed his lifelong commitment to education. For those of us who attended Fryeburg Academy, we know the story of Bion Cram is about way more than money. It’s about the kids in our class, the teams we forged, the games we played, the rivals, the wins and the losses. It’s about the clubs and the field trips, the dances, the comraderie and the incredible friendships. It’s about the Maine way of life, and the combination of kids from here and kids from there. It’s about fall and football and field hockey, the first snowfall, the blizzards, the snow days, the skiing and the sound of the FA boiler cranking while we took tests, and then the dawn of spring, the crack of the bat against a baseball, the smell of the local soil as it gets its annual tilling. It’s about the opening of young minds and the independence that we claimed from new knowledge and maturity. It’s about the four years we spent together at the most defining stage of our life. And that’s what makes this a critical time for every student that goes to Fryeburg Academy. And it is why we all need to take a lesson from Bion and support FA as it was supported for us. Rachel Andrews Damon ‘76 with Speaking of relationships forged at FA, be sure to take a look at the beginning of our “MarRon Hill ‘49-Former FA riage Project.” These are couples who met here and whose families are based on that meeting. I Headmaster encourage all of you to send in your photos if you are an alum married to an alum. I don’t think I ever thought back in the 70’s that I would be in a photo with my Headmaster Ron Hill ‘49! Mr. Hill and his wife, Alice Breen Hill ‘53, have been big supporters of the Academy and they attend many events. Mr. Hill always has a hug and a kind, encouraging word for me - just like he did back in the 70’s. For those relationships I am eternally grateful. I hope you will take a moment in your day and think about those whose influence you have grown from, the classmates, the teachers, the place, and have a moment of gratitude. Always a Raider - your friend -

ARCHIVES

Recently, an alum stopped by the Archives Office to do some research for an upcoming program. The subject of “Fryeburg Academy Assemblies” was discussed, and how assemblies were a reflection of the time period, the climate and the culture of the Academy and of the community. The following excerpts are direct quotes about assemblies which were held at the Academy during past years: 1884 Yearbook - Mr. W.W. McCann, of Poland, delivered a very interesting lecture on “Luck vs. Pluck” at Academy Hall, on October 28. He treated the subject in a very able manner, giving many practical illustrations of Pluck. Mr. McCann regarded success as obtained by Pluck, or honest endeavor, rather than Luck. 1897 Yearbook - Professor W.B. Mitchell of Bowdoin College, delivered a lecture on books and reading. 1914 Yearbook - Colonel Stewart Barrows gave a lecture at Academy Hall on the evening of November 6. The subject of this lecture was “Our Country’s Arms,” several varieties of which Colonel Barrows had on exhibition. 1927 Yearbook - Leonhard Seppala of Nome, Alaska, and Theodore Kingeak of Unalaklat, Barbara Hill-FA Archivist Alaska, visited Fryeburg Academy. They were going through Fryeburg with dog teams from the races at Poland Springs and Mr. Seppala very kindly consented to talk to the students. 1936 Yearbook - On the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Samuel L. Clemens, more commonly known by his pen name, Mark Twain, the Junior English classes presented before the school a program commemorating the most generally beloved of American authors. 1943 Yearbook - Mr. Robert Goffin, a native of Belgium, was fortunate in having narrowly escaped the terrible Nazi Blitzkrieg of his country, and his thrilling tale of the exciting trip he made through the Continent trying to get to this country will long remain in our minds as a constant reminder of the terrors of the war abroad. 1951 Yearbook - Lt. James C. Whittaker presented an astounding story from part of his book, “We Thought We Heard the Angels Sing.” Lt. Whittaker was one of the men on the raft in the Pacific with Eddie Rickenbacker for twenty-one days. The story he told was of the remarkable birth of a faith which grew in his heart after the unbelievable events of his siege…… The Fryeburg Academy Archives wishes to thank the following alumni for their ongoing donations, thereby ensuring the memorabilia of this institution will be preserved for future generations: Gloria Horne Burnell ‘49 & Clayton Burnell ‘47, Stanley Ward ‘36, Pauline Emerson Libbey ‘39, Ruth Andrews Porter ‘40, Betty Bell Baker ‘44, Elizabeth Flint Hilton ‘44, Phyllis Walker Chandler ‘47, Florence Graves Tripp ‘55, Mary Weston Di Nucci ‘85 and Paige Fitts Fox ‘82.

NOTES & COMMENT FROM ALUMNI HOUSE Legacy - Late one afternoon early in winter, while waiting for a meeting of the Academy Trustees to begin, I stood for a while facing the glass windows of the library conference room and watched. I watched the sea of students as they milled about at the circulation desk. I watched as others worked busily at the banks of computers that fill the center of the room. But most of all I noticed once again the breathtaking sense of space offered by this magnificent building; both inside and out beyond the glass. A building that was not even imagined just a few years ago is now the centerpiece of the series of buildings that together constitute the educational hub of the campus. Nestled in the heart of the Cram Library is a crescent-shaped reading room capped with a high vaulted ceiling of lovely wood trusses and framed by large windows facing south toward playing fields and the new athletic complex beyond. As many times as I have stood here in this spot, I continue to be amazed at what has been created here. It is still a breathtakingly beautiful room, and just standing there watching the winter day pass into night reminded me once again how remarkable such a space can be. A space that exists for all of us to enjoy thanks to the generosity of one man. What better legacy can a person leave behind than to know that long after anyone who knew him or her is gone, countless new generations of students and faculty will pass through these doors and use his name in everyday conversation? For a man who labored in a career which generated vast wealth but little public recognition, now and forever those efforts will be remembered for how he helped current and future generations of young people discover the gift of learning at a small school in Maine. Not all generous people want or need recognition, and at the outset this was never his goal. What he wanted was to know that the fruits of his labors would help people long after he was gone. The library, therefore, serves as a monument to a high ideal that transcends the practical laws of mortality. Without knowing, planning, or expecting it, Bion Cram has achieved immortality. As his heirs, we are both the recipients of his gifts and the keepers of his flame. For one simple man, this is a fine legacy, indeed. Tim Scott, FA’s Director of Development The LaCasce Bequest Society exists for the benefit of anyone who would like to do something for the Academy and its students that will last forever. It is available for anyone of any age or means, and serves as the Academy’s highest level of donor recognition.

Alums - I hope this ALUMNI DIRECTOR Dear letter finds you all well and enjoying a great new year. I continue to enjoy touching base with old friends and meeting new ones every day in the Alumni office. We are in hopes of making more contact with you as this year goes along. We have started to travel around the “Great State” of Maine, to reach out and visit with our closest alums. Trips to Auburn, Bangor and Portland, (in March) have started us on the Raider Road Show. It has been an attempt to come to you and keep you in touch with the Academy. We will be headed to the southern part of the state later in the year and, in all likelihood, a trip to the coast is in the works. However, we do not want to limit ourselves to just this state. We want to see YOU! Would you, any of you, spread around the country, like to host a gathering of Fryeburg Alums in your area? We are looking for anywhere and everywhere to come and visit and bring you up to speed on all the exciting new things going on at Fryeburg Academy! How difficult is it to host a gathering? It is not hard at all. We have had cookouts at homes, dinners at local restaurants, drinks and hors d’oeuvres, and group outings at sporting events. We simply need an excuse to come see you. My goal is to connect with as many people as possible in the New Year to say hi, have lunch, and spread the good will of the Academy. The Alumni are the life blood of this school, plain and simple. We need to keep you informed of the job we are doing for the youth who walk these hallowed halls. Many of you have been gone a long time and have lost touch with the school. It is my goal to rekindle your interest in what is happening here at Fryeburg. Todd Gallagher ‘82-FA’s Director of Alumni With the Phoenix Project in its final stages, we turn our attention to many new and exciting projects for the school. Dorm expansion is on the horizon, increasing rooms for additional students and better faculty housing. Field expansion of the Howe Street property is in the near future, as well. Our ultimate goal is the construction of a new Alumni House - the kind of building that will be designed to showcase our rich alumni history. These are all exciting things that will happen in the near future. We must remember that, just ten short years ago, the Bion R. Cram Library, the Ada Cram Wadsworth Arena, the Harvey Dow Gibson Recreation Center, the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center and the Pace Galleries were only dreams, as well. So with these new additions behind us, Fryeburg Academy continues to grow so that our students will have all the opportunities needed for a successful high school career. My final thought is a rousing, “Let Me Hear from You.” Tell the Alumni Office what you are doing and where you are doing it. We need to know and we want to know. You are all important to the ongoing success for which the Academy strives. We want you to be as proud of this school today as you were the day you graduated. Todd Gallagher ‘82-FA’s Director of Alumni

DIRECTOR OF GIFT PLANNING

I’m looking for 25 people who are interested in protecting their families from the pitfalls of the five following scenarios…and who might at the same time qualify for the LaCasce Society and help Fryeburg Academy. 1. Avoiding Probate - Avoiding probate is by far the most common reason why people seek out the advice of estate planning. While many have never even dealt with probate, they still know one thing - they want to avoid it at all costs. This stems from probate horror stories covered by the media or told by neighbors, friends or business associates. Suffice it to say that for the vast majority of people, avoiding probate is a very good reason for creating an estate plan and can be easily achieved. 2. Reducing Estate Taxes - The significant loss of one’s estate to the payment of state and/or federal estate taxes or state inheritance taxes is a great motivator for many people to put an estate plan together. Through the most basic planning, married couples can reduce or even possibly eliminate estate taxes altogether by setting up AB Trusts or ABC Trusts as part of their wills or revocable living trusts. In addition, a variety of advanced estate planning techniques can be used by both married couples and individuals to make the estate or inheritance tax bill less burdensome or completely go away. 3. Avoiding a Mess - Many clients seek the advice of an estate planning attorney after personally experiencing, or seeing a close friend or business associate experience a significant waste of time and money due to a loved one’s failure to make an estate plan. Choosing someone Peter Klomp-FA’s Director of Gift Planning to be in charge if you become mentally incapacitated, and after you die deciding who will get what, when they will get it, and how they will get it after you’re gone will go a long way towards avoiding family fights and costly court proceedings. 4. Protecting Beneficiaries - There are generally two main reasons why people put together an estate plan in order to protect their beneficiaries: (a) Protecting minor beneficiaries, and/or (b) Protecting adult beneficiaries from bad decisions, outside influences, creditor problems and divorcing spouses. If the beneficiary is a minor, all 50 states have laws that require a guardian or conservator to be appointed to oversee the minor’s needs and finances until the minor becomes a legal adult (at age 18 or 21, depending upon the laws of the state where the minor lives). 5. Protecting Assets From Unforeseen Creditors - Lately asset protection planning has become a very important reason why many people, including those who already have an estate plan, are meeting with their estate planning attorney. Once you know or even just suspect that a lawsuit is on the horizon, it’s too late to put a plan in place to protect your assets. Instead, you need to start with a sound financial plan and couple that with a comprehensive estate plan that will in turn protect your assets for the benefit for both you during your lifetime and for your beneficiaries after your death. You can also provide asset protection for your spouse through the use of AB Trusts or ABC Trusts and your other beneficiaries through the use of lifetime trusts. I’m a phone call away and I would like to help you in formulating a plan to protect your legacy. Peter Klomp, Director of Gift Planning

THE 2010 ALUMNI DIRECTORY As promised in the last issue of Scenes, the new 2010 edition of Fryeburg Academy’s directory is now available to all alumni! The newest edition is divided into three sections: - The Biographical section lists alums by their last name, and if married, by their maiden name, as well. This section also lists the alum’s class year, most current residence, and if available, home telephone number, cell phone number, and email address. If we have no current residence, it is noted as No Valid Address with an asterisk (*). - The Class Year section has everyone listed under his or her year of graduation. This section also notes whether the alum is Deceased (**) or Address Unknown (*). - The Geographical section has all alumni listed by his or her State, City, and Country. The reviews have been outstanding and the directory promises to be hours of enjoyable reading as alums look up classmates, old friends, past teachers and more! One alum from the class of 1957 called to say she thoroughly enjoyed reading her copy of the 2010 directory over the recent Christmas break. Due to the high costs associated with printing this newest edition, we are charging $25.00 per copy, plus cost of postage if it’s necessary to mail. So, be sure to call me at 207-935-2001, extension 3128, or email me at dlewey@fryeburgacademy.org if you wish to have a copy reserved for you or put in the mail. We gladly accept most credit cards for your purchases, as well as personal checks. Also, as a reminder to all our alums, please remember that your directory is for personal use only and not for commercial use. Diane Lewey-FA’s Database Administrator

Jane Lounsbury-FA’s Alumni & Development Office Manager & Diane Lewey-FA’s Database Administrator want you to come in for a new directory!

The challenge is to shoot a golf ball and land in the circle that is a predetermined distance away. All 100 ticket holders will shoot; if their ball stays in the circle, they will advance to the next round. The rounds will continue until one person is left to take home the cash. Tickets are available from all F.A.A.A. members and all participants must be 18 years of age. There will be door prizes and consolation prizes given out during the event. You may also sponsor a shooter for your business or organization but that person must still be 18 years of age. If you have questions, feel free to ask any F.A.A.A. member. Sign up early for reunion and also this fundraising event. Only 100 tickets will be sold, so don’t get shut out. What better way to enjoy the weekend than seeing old friends and going home with a little cash in the pocket.

PACE GALLERIES OF ART AT FA The past six months have brought new excitement to the Pace Galleries. We opened the season in August with Canvassing the White Mountains 1834-1954: A Personal Collection. From the early nineteenth century until the early twentieth century, some of America’s most important artists were members of the White Mountain School. This exhibition was hugely popular; in fact, we extended the show into December. The gallery actually expanded into the foyer with a textile exhibition titled “Trellis.” The installation by Katherine Harding will remain on view until March 2011. It consists of 184 scrolls suspended from the ceiling. The scrolls vary in size from 3-9 feet. Our 2011 season began with the installation of a new exhibit, Logging in Maine….Then and Now; it is a cooperative exhibition with The Rangeley Lakes Region Logging Museum and The Maine Museum of Photographic Arts. The exhibition features a series of John Day ‘67, Director of the Pace Galleries of Art at Fryeburg Academy with Headmaster paintings by Alden Grant that weave a narraDan Lee at the Moss Gallery Reception for FA alums in Falmouth, ME tive of logging operations in Maine woods at the turn of the century. Also included is the work of Madeleine de Sinéty, born in France. She has photographed the life and work of Matt Lord, a horse logger in Chesterville, Maine. Her photographs have been the subject of solo exhibitions at The Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris, France (1996), and The Center for Maine Contemporary Art, Rockport, Maine (2001). To complete the exhibition is the work of contemporary photographer, Tonee Harbert. His work comes to us via the Maine Center for Photographic Art. On Saturday, February 12th, we, along with the Jackson Historical Society, hosted the premiere of the documentary film, Brush and Pen: Artists and Writers of the White Mountains. This film brings together beautiful paintings and literature created by some of America’s finest artists and writers of the 1800s and bridges a gap in the art and literature worlds by combining significant, meaningful, and historic White Mountain Art and literature in one format. Upcoming exhibitions include The Maine Drawing Project in March and a retrospective of renowned New York artist Bohdan Osyczka in May. Our collection has expanded dramatically with donations with fine photography by Irvin Serrano, a John Muench oil, and a study collection of over 12 oils by artist and university professor Harry Nadler. Indeed, the art vault is looking full. A recent effort to raise funds for the gallery through establishing a Founders Group has brought many generous donations to support the Pace Galleries program. Finally, the Academy has begun to create an endowment for the gallery. Please visit your Academy art gallery! John Day ‘67, Director of the Pace Galleries of Art at Fryeburg Academy, jday@fryeburgacademy.org Sam & Sheila Robbins are collectors of White Mountain Art and lent their beautiful collection to FA. Thank you, Sam & Sheila!

LEURA HILL EASTMAN PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

The Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center continues to be a place that draws in members of our immediate community and those from far beyond it! Thanks to Rachel Damon ‘76, we’ve started using in our advertising the line, “It’s All Happening Here!” which we really feel is true! For those of you here for reunion weekend, we hope you enjoyed the Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace Galleries of Art Exhibit: Canvassing the White Mountains: A Private Collection. We were thrilled to have this exRoomful of Blues performed October 16, 2010 quisite collection of oil paintings from the School of White Mountain Art, including the works of Champney, Ordway and Baker to name just a few! The exhibit drew in a huge crowd and had to be extended through December 23! We now have a wonderful exhibit on logging in Maine….which is very different, but equally as interesting. Sarah MacGillivray-FA’s Box Office Manager at We closed out summer at the end of August with a community presentation by White the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center, Mountain Musical Arts - the 22nd Annual Bach Festival. We then made a complete turn (207) 935-9232 around as we kicked off the fall with the first in our Blues Series with the Chris Duarte Band boxoffice@fryeburgacademy.org in concert, followed up the next week with a blast from the past the Chad & Jeremy Show! You may remember their string of hits - “Yesterday’s Gone,” “Summer Song,” “Willow Weep For Me,” “If I Loved You,” “Before and After” and “Distant Shores.” Our FA Film Series continues, with box office hits like “Inception” and “The Social Network,” to Christmas favorites like “It’s a Wonderful Life” and “A Christmas Story.” We also continue with documentary films, such as “A Man Named Pearl” and the upcoming “Beijing Taxi.” Also on screen, our Metropolitan Opera Live in HD Series remains one of our most popular series. With twelve operas this season, there has never been a better time to come out and give opera a try! Fryeburg Academy’s own Joe DeVito-FA Faculty (English) prepares a wonderful opera appreciation workshop every Wednesday prior to an opera, so if you’d like to hear a little taste Audiobody performed at FA on November 20, 2010 and learn about the show first, come on out! We added a similar series, this time from The National Theatre of London, to our list of events this year. With shows like “Hamlet” and “King Lear,” and the musical “Fela!,” there is truly something for everyone! Of course our live shows cover a wide range as well. With groups like Roomful of Blues and Ronnie Earl and The Broadcasters for our blues crowd, to The Empire Brass with special guest Elisabeth von Trapp and The Portland String Quarter for those into more classical styles, to Rick Charette and AudioBody for the young and young at heart, it really is all happening here! My picks for favorites over the last few months have to be Hannake Cassel, Barefoot Truth, Ryan Montbleau and Vienna Teng. I have to say that we haven’t had a performer or group that we would not welcome back! We’ve met some wonderfully talented people and enjoyed some amazing performances. If you’ve missed any of them, we hope to bring some back, and we are always open to suggestions for others you Chad & Jeremy performed September 18, 2010 would like to see! It could be that some of the largest audiences though, turn out for our own FA productions! With the all school musical, “Once Upon a Mattress” and our traditional Candlelight Concerts, I am always touched by how supportive our community is of our young and very talented students. The students never seem to disappoint us either! We’re looking forward to the Jazz Cabaret on March 22, and the Spring Concert set for May 12. As always, if you are in the area, check the Fryeburg Academy website for the most upto-date information on all of our performances, and we’ll see you at the PAC, because it is all happening here!

GOT BOOKS???

The Academy is embarking on a new program to expand its collection of fine and rare books. This effort will augment its growing collection of art and its present archive of regional and Academy history. This is a unique time in the history of books. Computerized word processing and the digitizing of text are completely changing how the written word is conveyed and stored. Today’s young students will soon be accessing virtually all their study materials through electronic reading devices. Production of traditional, hard-bound books is diminishing in the face of new, more cost-efficient technologies. According to antiquarian book collector and dealer John Moran, “Notable institutions of higher learning such as Fryeburg Academy are logical safe harbors for original fine and rare books from the great age of traditional publishing.” The Academy, now in its 219th year, is a vital bridge that spans the present and joins the past with the future. Helping to build a fine collection of noteworthy books from the 1800’s and 1900’s is a new and unique way for alumni to enhance and strengthen the Academy’s future. “I have no doubt that amongst FA’s alumni are a great number of fine and rare books, the donation of which would readily help to establish the foundation of a prominent and worthy collection,” says Moran. John Moran Where to begin? “That’s easy” he says, “First editions (signed and unsigned) of books that have retained their importance are priority #1…these cover a very wide range of fiction and non-fiction, e.g., “To Kill a Mockingbird,” “Nineteen Eighty-Four,” “The Origin of Species,” “Catch-22,” “Life on the Mississippi,” “Moby Dick,” “Civil Disobedience,” to name but a very few. Priority #2 would be titles from the golden age of illustrated books (1890-1945)…classics featuring the artwork of N.C. Wyeth, Howard Pyle, Arthur Rackham, Wily Pogany, Maxfield Parrish, Frank Godwin, Rockwell Kent, Harry Clarke, Edmund Dulac, Kay Nielsen, and many others. This is just the tip of the iceberg. I am confident that well over half of FA’s alums have books on their shelves that are worthy of being included in the collection. The Academy is an ideal repository for an archive of importance and this is an ideal time to develop it.” There is a two-fold benefit to this effort, both for the Academy and for the donor. Any book that is donated to the Academy would benefit the donors by affording a meaningful tax deduction for the value of the book, and the Academy will soon offer a comprehensive fine book library to serve the region, which, coupled with the related collections of art and historic memorabilia, help to meet the Academy’s growing role as the regional hub of educational and artistic resources. For more information about selecting books to donate or helping us build our antiquarian book collection, please contact FA’s Alumni & Development Office at 207-935-2001, ext. 3137, or John Moran at 207-697-2034.

FA GUIDANCE

There is much excitement as college acceptances arrive for students who applied early. Many seniors are putting finishing touches on their applications, while others are considering other future plans. The focus is now on financial aid and completing the required documents for eligibility purposes. The school counseling department offered a financial aid workshop in the beginning of December to help families navigate this process. The Civil Rights team attended a workshop this fall and its members are beginning their efforts to spread awareness of our harassment policy and broadcast the message that everyone should feel safe, welcome and respected at FA. This team is supported by Ms. Kathy Wilson Dunham ‘77, Mr. Greg Huang-Dale and me. Comprehensive work was undertaken to register new seniors and all underclassmen on Naviance, which provides a comprehensive approach to the career planning process. This program has been well received by students and allows families to be involved in the process. Naviance allows us to not only utilize college, course and Nicole Cote-Crosskill ‘77-FA’s Director of Guidance career planning features when building individual learning plans—it also lets us rewith Jenelle Lane ‘11 ceive detailed status information on school forms, recommendations, and transcripts, including when they’re actually processed by colleges. The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) and the Accuplacer were also administered to interested students this fall. These provided students with information regarding choices and decisions that they can make for their future career plans. The Accuplacer is used in many community colleges for admission purposes, providing institutions with data of student skill level in math, English and reading. An Accuplacer math prep course will be offered during the May term to allow students the opportunity to work on this academic area. This course is available to all students regardless of whether or not they took this assessment. This fall, FA, in collaboration with White Mountains Community College, opened its doors to our first Running Start college course. Through this partnership, students are earning college credits in a science course taught during the regular school day. Second semester, several juniors and seniors are taking advantage of “On Course for College,” a collaborative effort with Central Maine Community College to provide an English college course for credit here on Fryeburg Academy’s campus. The cost of tuition is covered for Maine students by the state. We hope to continue to offer this partnership to all community members (adult learners) and eligible high school students in the evenings, right here in our backyard. Thank you for your support!

FRYEBURG - MORE THAN “THE ACADEMY” AND “THE FAIR” INDIAN ACRES & FOREST ACRES - SUMMER CAMPS

The Totem Poles at the entrance to Indian Acres Summer Camp, Fryeburg, Maine

For many of us travelling the Fryeburg roads in winter, “Indian Acres Hill” can provide a particular challenge. Even in summer it’s best to slow down. It gives us all time to review the totem poles leading into Indian Acres Summer Camp at the base of the hill. Forest Acres and Indian Acres are about two miles apart in Fryeburg and are owned by Neal and Julie Waldman of Needham, MA. They provide an old world, traditional Maine summer camp experience for children between the ages of seven and 16. Each year they have approximately 290 campers (www.indianacres.com). Campers participate in water sports (Indian Acres sits on the Saco River), archery, horseback riding, tennis, baseball, martial arts, dance, drama and lots more. The camps are non-denominational. Friendships are forged for a lifetime. The result: Self-esteem, confidence and independence. Indian Acres and Forest Acres were established in 1924 by Abraham and Gertrude Krasker of Fryeburg. In 1962, their son, Dick, became the owner. In 1969 Dick married Sandy DeBoom, an Indian Acres staff member. Dick travelled all over the world recruiting interested campers, while Sandy maintained the camp operations. “Mostly we succeeded by word-of-mouth. At camp, and through recreation, kids learn lots of values and life lessons. Being away from mom and dad helps children learn to make decisions and form relationships. All sorts of wonderful things come out of the experience.” Dick, a lifelong advocate for the camps, even after he sold to the Newmans, and then they sold it to the Waldmans in 2005, adds, “The camps are good for the Maine economy. We’re in the export business. We’re exporting an experience.” Dick says of the Waldmans, “Neal and Julie met at camp and Neal’s brother and sister were former campers as well. They all have lots of love for the tradition of Indian Acres and Forest Acres. The Waldmans’ two daughters were campers and counselors.”

Neal Waldman says, “The relationship between our camps and Fryeburg Academy is extremely strong. In 1976, Pinky True (who would go on to become Headmaster at FA) was the head counselor. When he became the Headmaster at MCI in Pittsfield, Maine, my friend,

Steve Liscovitz, and I went there to teach.” Steve also taught at FA. Several FA teachers, including Pat Fox (Drama), Nicole Cote-Crosskill ‘77 (Director of Guidance), Sharon Gilman (English), Bobbi Muse (French), Angie Garrett (Math) and Tom Ackley (Math) provide academic summer tutoring to campers. Many alums have worked at the camps over the years and they include Alan Whitaker ‘77, Rick Kiesman ‘82, Herb Eastman ‘44, John Atwood ‘71, his children-Tim ‘06, Liz ‘07 & Emily ‘09, Scott Kelly ‘53, Sandy True, Sherry True Ingalls ‘76, Kathy True Ela ‘78, Mike Sanborn ‘78, Jean Thebault Bruenle ‘83, Hallie Morris Humphrey ‘78 and Mike Mowry ‘87, to name a few. Several local kids have been campers over the years, including alums Kit Trumbull ‘88, Mary Jean Trumbull ‘87, Chris Pike ‘84, Steve ‘80, Kent ‘84, and Scott Graustein ‘82, Chris ‘92 and David Seeley ‘89, Mark ‘82 and Paul True ‘88, Courtney Baker Lee ‘91 and Meridith Baker Perry ‘89, Travis Mosley ‘10 and Alex Denney ‘08. Steve Graustein ‘80, FA’s Director of Technology, attended camp for eight years and was also a counselor. He says, “It was fun meeting kids from all over the world. Kind of like here (FA). I learned a lot of different things. It’s where I learned to horseback ride!” (Writer’s Note-Apologies to those we missed on this list! Too numerous to mention.) Alan Whitaker ‘77, FA’s Director of Food Service, Alan Whitaker ‘77, FA’s Director of started working for Dick Krasker in the kitchens at Food Service & longtime IA & FA Indian Acres and Forest Acres when he was 13 and employee continues to this day. Alan says, “I was so impressed with Dick Krasker. He is such a hard worker. He has been very good to me. Dick made me go to college. If it wasn’t for him, I probably wouldn’t have gone.” Almost 40 years later, Alan and his crew from FA provide daily food service at the camps. Don Wentworth ‘67 and Kevin Whitaker ‘82 have been there over 30 years, Julie Barton Denney ‘73 for 20 years and Sandy Panno Whitaker ‘86 for 17 years. John Atwood ‘71, FA Faculty (History) worked as a counselor at Indian Acres. All three of his children have worked there as well – Tim ‘06, Liz ‘07 and Emily ‘09. John says, “I had a wonderful time teaching golf, tennis and soccer at Indian Acres. I told my kids it was the best experience you could have at a summer job and it was right down the road. You can’t become a counselor until you’ve completed one year of college so they all had to wait until they were 19. Two years ago Liz was the director of soccer at Forest Acres and Tim was the director of soccer at Indian Acres. Both had a wonderful experience. Emily worked last summer as a secretary at Forest Acres. The friendships you make continue forever.” Don Wentworth ‘67, FA Food Service & Henar Landa of Spain began as a counselor at Forest Acres. Based on her expanding role as the Spanish connection, Henar started her own company called “Round the World Spain.” She now longtime IA & FA employee

places about 400 students per year at over 30 camps and schools in New England, including dorm students at Fryeburg Academy. Gary McClurg, FA’s recently retired faculty member (Guidance), has worked as a summer counselor at Indian Acres for 40 years. “Sheila and I were married in 1971 and were living in South Dakota. In 1972 we decided to work at a New England camp. Sheila applied at Indian Acres through a nursing magazine. Dick Krasker called her and hired her over the phone. Sheila said to Dick, ‘I have a husband who loves sports and he needs work as well.’ Dick said, ‘Bring him along.’ That first summer, Fred Westerberg and I were the maintenance men at camp. I couldn’t even screw in a lightbulb. I love baseball and I’d be on the field and kids started coming out to play. Dick hired me in 1973 as the baseball director. After our first summer, Sheila had been offered a year-round nursing job in New Jersey. Dick said, ‘We have to keep you here.” It just so happens that there was an opening for a school nurse at FA. Dick talked to Pinky True, Sheila was hired, and we moved into the infirmary. I think Pinkie loved Sheila ‘cause she was short! She was five feet tall.” Gary describes their living quarters in the FA infirmary, “We lived on the right side of

the infirmary with no living room and no bedroom. We had a bed in this one room with a tiny kitchen. We loved it. In 1973 they moved us upstairs. Our neighbors in the house were faculty members, Larry-Former FA Faculty and Ellen Welch. We lived on campus ‘til 1979.” Sheila McClurg, dedicated FA school nurse, passed away in 1991. Gary and Sheila have two children, FA alums, Jim McClurg ‘92 and Meredith McClurg ‘95. Jim runs a non-profit organization in Palo Alto, California, called Eastern Horizons. He works with kids from the inner city and he refers candidates to Indian Acres and Forest Acres– about eight kids per year. Meredith got her undergraduate degree from Colorado State and now lives in Bend, Oregon. She is a nanny and is finishing her master’s in teaching.

Gary says, “There has always been a good and reciprocal relationship between Fryeburg Academy and Indian and Forest Acres. Both places are amazing – phenomenal, really. I’ve met so many great people. My best friends are from camp.” Gary retired this past June 2010 after 38 years of coaching and teaching at FA. He is 62 years old. In 2005, Indian Acres named and dedicated their baseball field to Gary McClurg. When the Gibson Gym at FA burned down in October 2005, Indian and Forest Acres made a very generous offer to open its doors for use to FA. All FA tennis practices and home matches are played on courts at Indian and Forest Acres. I got an opportunity to talk to two former campers (from away!) this past summer, Dr. Jane Rudolph, a gynecologist from Boca Raton and Andy Cornblatt, the Dean of Admissions at Georgetown Law School. Jane met her husband, Stephen Weinberg, at camp and her daughter, Hailey, age 13, is now a camper at Forest Acres. Andy was eight years old when he came to Indian Acres. “I stayed ‘til I was 44! And I recently came back to direct the co-ed plays. I was a camper from age eight to 16. Then I became a counselor, then head counselor and a few other jobs. Now my son, Nathan, 14, is a camper. My daughter went to Forest Acres. I met my wife here and my three brothers came here and two of them met their wives here as well. And, believe it or not, my mother was a camper here. The experience for us (my family) was terrific. Our memories are so great and strong.” Jane and Andy have maintained a lifelong friendship from their camp days and with Fryeburg. “We love everything about Fryeburg. We remember Solari’s; The Dairy Joy.” Andy adds, “I even remember The Clam Shell and the Volvo Tennis Tournament!” Jane says, “I just met Jimmy Oliver ‘64, the son of the original pharmacist…in Fryeburg.” Jane is referring to Bill Oliver ‘38, who ran Rexall Pharmacy on Main Street in Fryeburg for decades. When Jane returned to Forest Acres for a Reunion after a 30-year absence, she walked into the same cabin she had as a child. “The walls brought back such great memories. The same smell. The spiders. The pine needles. The great memories came flooding back. I love it all.” Written by Rachel Andrews Damon ‘76 Dr. Jane Rudolph & Andy Cornblatt Indian Acres & Forest Acres campers

EYE ON ALUMNI JOHN GILLIN ‘41

I took a drive to Duxbury, Massachusetts, to visit John Gillin ‘41. We talked about his old memories of FA and his life to date. John turned 87 on November 2nd.

John came from Bangor, Maine, to Fryeburg Academy for his junior year. His brother, James Gillin ‘37, attended FA for his senior year. James’ daughter, Patricia Gillin Nottoli Ranger ‘60, also attended FA. Unfortunately, she passed away in November 2010 at the age of 68. John’s father, James, was an attorney in Bangor. John Gillin ‘41 at his home in Duxbury, MA His mother, December 2010 Hazel, was a homemaker. Besides brother James, John had one sister, Hazel Delano Gillin. I can attest to John Gillin’s comedic timing and very dry sense of humor. He says his father encouraged argument and discussion at home, but his mother and he were the quiet ones. “My brother and sister were very humorous and funny right up ‘til the day they died. If I have humor, I owe it to Jack Benny and Bob Hope.” “I was tickled pink with the Academy,” John says. “I was away from home and I was the only one to have a car! There were about 30 male John Gillin ‘41 with his 1940-41 basketball team at FA. John keeps this photo as boarding well as many others from his FA days hung in his house. students and 20 female at that time. Most of them were from the Boston area. I was a basketball player and immediately got recognition that I didn’t get at Bangor. I worried that I wouldn’t get on the basketball team. The coach said, ‘Don’t worry you’re going John Gillin ‘41 & Caroline Neal ‘42 in John Gillin ‘41 with his Four Square Man Club at FA - January 1940 to be on the Bangor, ME, Christmas 1943, while John was team.’ It on leave from the US Navy. -14Fryeburg Academy, 745 Main Street, Fryeburg, Maine 04037, (207) 935-2001 x 3137, www.fryeburgacademy.org, e-mail-alumni@fryeburgacademy.org


wasn’t until later that I understood they needed a sixth person on the team. I was number 6.” “I went out for football first. I met Coach Ron Torrey. He saw what I could do. Then he said, ‘You’re going to be manager of the team.’ One of my jobs was making the lines for the football field. I thought I could do a better job using my car. Our team ended up with a penalty in the first game when the ref started pacing out the lines and instead of ten feet between lines, I had put 12 feet. I was not footballplayer material.” John says, “Everyone liked Coach Torrey. We treasured him. He would give pep talks and tell some story to inspire the team. The whole school would be at the pep rally. He

was good at that. Everyone admired him.” “We had much respect for “Mister” and Mrs. LaCasce. She was very much in the foreground. Teachers were not something I had been up against at Bangor before running into FA’s serious teaching efforts. My arithmetic teacher, Pop Grierson, had written a problem on the chalkboard on the first day of school. He said if anyone can solve the problem they could walk out right then and be done for the year. It had to do with trisecting an angle. No one got it. My brother had him as a teacher also and used to talk about that problem.”

1999-John with his wife, Mary, - the comedy team!

“Mister was really something. Cliff Gray was another wonderful, wonderful person. Teacher Chris Rawlis taught me to read newspapers. Any newspaper. He made it required reading and he would ask questions the next day.” “Caroline Neal ‘42 was my first love. She was a beautiful girl, quiet and more worldly than I. She had been brought up in New York City riding the subways to school. She was pretty and softspoken and anyone who liked me back then was okay in my book.”

John admits that academically he “just got by.” “My attendance was perfect, however! And my conduct was good. Athletics were good. I was a pitcher on the baseball team and Cliff Gray was my

coach. I didn’t last long because I was afraid when I got up to bat. I didn’t even become the manager of that team!” On June 6 of 1941, John graduated from FA and went on to Bard College. Within seven days of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, John and four buddies went to New York City to enlist in the Navy. “We had no idea we were going to be drafted anyway. We joined on our own. The guy who was interviewing us got us worked up in his speech saying, ‘Let’s go out and get those sons of bitches.’ We were sent back to Bard where I joined SAE (Sigma Alpha Epsilon) and waited for the call. While I was home in Bangor, I took a military test and did very well on testing in math and electricity. I got notified that I needed to take a physical. My mother had made a nice, cold chicken picnic and with my father we drove to John Gillin ‘41 with his Class of 1941 photo Portland to take my physical. We decided to have the picnic after the physical. Well, I had the physical and they marched me out another open dutch door to wave goodbye to my parents. I never did get the chicken dinner. From there we went to the Finger Lakes to Sampson Naval Training Station in NY. From there I went to radar training school in Chicago for a 28-week course.” “Right before being sent overseas, I went on a train to NYC to meet Caroline. That was the last time I saw her. From San Francisco we were shipped to the Philippines. I got assigned to a ship and that took me up to Shanghai. We went to Korea and once to Japan. I was discharged in April of 1946 and headed back to Bard as a junior. I finished my B.S. in Science and met my wife, Mary Perrot, from Manhasset, LI, NY, there. She got her B.S. degree in Political Science from Bard. We got married by a Justice of the Peace in June of 1948 and bought a cottage on the Erie Canal.” “Our first daughter of four was born in 1950 in Syracuse, NY. Life was good. I was working for General Electric. I left GE to get into a get-rich-quick company with one of my brothers-in-law. We moved to Chicago Heights to set up our precision plating company. I was the chief engineer. We didn’t get rich quick. Everything in my life had lasted about two years up ‘til that point. We were renting a house on a typical Midwestern street and sat on the porch at night and waved to people. We decided we’d better get back East while we could still afford to do so. I went to work for Raytheon as an environmental engineer testing their products. I got past my two-year habit and stayed with Raytheon for 30 years. I worked at Raytheon locations in Wayland, Waltham and Sudbury. We lived in Natick, MA, the entire time. All my daughters attended Natick High School. I tried to send them to Fryeburg and I also tried to get my daughters to send their daughters to the Naval Academy. Girls are allowed in now.” John and Mary Gillin have four daughters, Laura, Dorothy, Katherine and Emilie, three grandsons and five granddaughters. John’s passion is sailing. “It is certainly what I enjoyed the most and Mary did, too (Mary Gillin passed away in 2003). We were always attracted to the ocean, and we made wonderful friends in the sailing community. I grew up on Lake Lucerne in Maine and couldn’t conceive of being away from the water, and I never was. I sailed very regularly up until last year.” John’s thoughts for students today - “I’m most struck when reading Scenes by the cross section of the student body. They were mostly white, Protestants at FA, when I attended in 1940 & 1941. There were no ethnic groups at all. There were ‘townies’ and ‘dorm’ students. That there is so much diversity in the present student body is both the great strength of FA and the everlasting benefit for today’s students. This was no accident. It is the work of dedicated educators, philanthropy and ‘Mister’ & Mrs. Elroy O. LaCasce, their children; Daniel Webster, Harvey Dow Gibson 1898, Bion R. Cram ‘33 and others. I am also impressed with the over thirty organized activities - music, football, soccer, etc. There was only male baseball, football and basketball, with no girls activities when I was at the Academy.” “I’d say to students today - don’t get tied up in athletics, because I feel that is why I didn’t get more education than I could have gotten. I’m not sorry, because I had so much fun playing sports. I hate the way athletics are going now with bickering, screaming, over-parenting and politics. I think sports are overemphasized even though I lived it and ate it up during my day. My father always encouraged academics and I would say the same thing to students today, rather than emphasizing sports in your life. I’m glad I went to the Academy. I got away from home and began to think for myself.” Email John at: jmgillin@verizon.net.

EYE ON ALUMNI FEI WU ‘01

I first met Fei Wu ‘01 when she attended one of our Boston regional socials held at the Museum of Science. She and I got together for lunch recently and then again at her apartment in Brighton to do an interview for Scenes. When I arrived at Fei’s apartment, I met her mother, Xiang (pronounced: Shang), who was visiting from Beijing. Xiang is a very well-known artist in Beijing who worked at the Forbidden City (also known at the Palace Museum) as a curator for over 30 years. Xiang does not speak much English so Fei translated our conversation. Fei spoke about her experience applying to Fryeburg. “My parents and I worked with an education agency before I applied to Fryeburg. We looked at a few schools near Boston but I picked Fryeburg. I met with Tracy Tryder and Alan Whittemore (formerly of FA’s Admission Office) at our home in Beijing and really liked them.” Tracy and Alan were both very impressed with Fei’s achievements as a high school student and decided she was perfect for the Academy and the Academy was perfect for her! At 15, Fei took first place in a national spoken English competition in Beijing and was offered a position as a DJ at Fei Wu ‘01 - Senior Photo from the FA Yearbook China National Radio Station. She was the youngest DJ in the station’s 60-year history. Fei wrote, directed and hosted a weekly radio show every Monday over the course of one year. When ice hockey was first introduced to China, she had the opportunity to learn and play against people who worked at the US and Canadian Embassies. Her dream came true after she arrived at Fryeburg Academy where she played hockey as the only girl on the boy’s varsity hockey team and was elected team captain. During the same season, Coach Mango and Fei founded the first girls’ hockey team at Fryeburg. After she left Fryeburg for college, she received her first-degree black belt at the internationally recognized Jae Hun Kim Tae Kwon Do Institute after five years of rigorous training. Fei is Fei Wu ‘01 with her mother, Xiang Lee, at Fei’s an only child. apartment in Brighton, MA. With the influence of two well-known artist parents, Fei grew up in a nontraditional family compared to her friends’ families in Beijing, China. Her parents inspired and encouraged her to take on challenges considered unusual or even unwise by their own peers. Fei’s parents met while serving in the Army of the People’s Republic of China. Fei’s father, Mr. Wu, joined the Army in 1965. Fei’s mother, Xiang, joined the Army in 1969. They were married in 1977. Fei was born in 1983. Mr. Wu worked with the Army in different capacities and retired at the age of 60. He served as the art director of the medical division of the Army. He also authored

books on many subjects including how to teach calligraphy to children. Mr. Wu passed away in December 2009. He was recognized as one of the top calligraphers in China. Mr. Wu designed the calligraphy for the Bank of China logo. “When I grew up, all my friends were only children. The onechild policy has helped with the population problem in my country. However, it is not a problem that is easily solved and will potentially take years to solve.” This is one of the most common questions she’s been asked since her arrival in the US. Fei loves life in both China and the U.S. “There are a lot of benefits to living in the U.S. The air quality is wonderful; the people in general are very educated; there is more space and more opportunities.” She added, “In China, school and work life can be very hectic but Chinese people know how to treat Fei is accomplished in Tae Kwon Do themselves and de-stress. The food is absolutely amazing and usually very good for you.” Fei grew up in a household where greens are served with every meal and fruits are served in place of desserts. “In Beijing, you have a lot of options when it comes to food. Two people can spend just a few dollars or hundreds.” One downside of life in Beijing is the traffic. Though the public transportation system is well-developed with hundreds of bus lines and high speed trains, it is still difficult to manage in one of the busiest cities in the world. Fei loves talking about her Fryeburg experience. “I became friends with Tracy Tryder’s children, Chelsea ‘02 and Myles ‘03, in no time; I moved into Frye Hall and had a German roommate, Franz ‘02. She introduced me to my prom date, Konrad; I was only at Fryeburg for nine months, but in that time I played ice hockey, softball and learned to play alto saxophone. Mr. Brent LaCasce ‘78-FA Faculty (Fine Arts Chair) was amazing and he gave me the opportunity to learn from the very beginning.” Fei took her first theater class with Ms. Pat Fox-FA Faculty (Fine Arts). During the senior play, Fei sang a rock song written by Ben Hammond ‘01, now enjoying success himself as a professional musician. One of the moments Fei will never forget is the Christmas concert in 2000. Her saxophone broke just before the concert started. Lori Royer ‘03, the lead of the section, decided to give her own saxophone to Fei to perform during the entire concert. “It was my best performance in the best concert I had ever been in.” Fei had never been a troublemaker in school, but she decided to experience the American version of detention once before she graduated. She recalled an Fei is a snowboarder incident of returning to the dorm late one night after practicing the saxophone at the music hall. “I was on dorm restriction one weekend for it!” she laughed. There were many more moments fresh in her mind. “I loved Dan Turner. He was my Physics teacher and he makes everyone feel alive. Mrs. Barbara Douglass was my college advisor. She was wonderful and helped me through the overwhelming college application process. Jackie Smith was my dorm parent. After discovering I was a huge hockey fan, she bought me a book on hockey that is sitting on my shelf right now.” Fei remembers everyone at Fryeburg fondly. Fei received yet another title before she ended her senior year – Prom Queen. “I had no idea what prom queen even was, not to mention receiving it.” Fei still looks surprised. “There were so many smart, athletic and beautiful girls in my class. I had no idea that it was going to be me. My guess is that everyone knew me because I participated in so many activities at Fryeburg, and I was happy and friendly.” Fei was captain of the FA girls ice hockey team and received the Senior Esprit de Corps Award at graduation which is awarded to the student who best exemplifies the spirit of the Academy. After graduating from Fryeburg, Fei studied at Northeastern University, where they have a five-year program that alternates between semesters of classwork and semesters where the students work full-time at various companies. By the time she graduated from -18Fryeburg Academy, 745 Main Street, Fryeburg, Maine 04037, (207) 935-2001 x 3137, www.fryeburgacademy.org, e-mail-alumni@fryeburgacademy.org


college, Fei had already worked for three major software companies full-time and built a portfolio that helped her land a job as a business consultant at Sapient Corporation. Fei’s advice to students reflects something she learned from Mr. & Mrs. Vachon (English teacher and dorm parents). The Vachons now live in California. “Mr. Vachon said in my English class, ‘Don’t be lazy. Just remember whenever you walk by a sign in school, read it!’ I continued this habit from Fryeburg to Northeastern, where I joined the Entrepreneur Club (hosted by the College of Business Administration) as the only student from the College of Computer Science. The sign said ‘everyone is welcome’. I wasn’t sure so I reached out to the professor who ran the session and he accepted me. It was a lot of fun and I had exposure to different people, industries and gained new professional relationships. Fei also feels strongly that kids need to know there are other ways to have fun besides drugs and alcohol. “Don’t abuse yourself. People tend to go overboard. I’ve seen some sad stories. I say it’s okay to be different.” She smiled, “I was the dorky Chinese kid who wore the supersized jersey and loved to play hockey. In the end I got reassurance from everyone. People respected what I did and who I was. So be different!” Fei’s future plans might include the pursuit of an MBA. “I hope to go to MIT (Sloan) one day. It is very competitive in the real world but you need to give yourself a chance, even if you don’t make Fei Wu ‘01 - Boston, December 2010 it in the end.” There are three things Fei wants to accomplish from now on: “First, I plan to explore the healthcare field in China. When my father was hospitalized, I noticed dramatic improvements in the Chinese healthcare industry, but many people only have access to very basic coverage. In addition, clinical trials in China will take a long time. Moreover, patients and their families are not properly educated about treatment procedures and expected results. I would like to help families in China take advantage of these and other life-saving resources.”

Fei Wu ‘01 with friend Pu Chen ‘02. Pu graduated from Northeastern in Boston and is pursuing his graduate degree there as well. Email Pu at: shuperpu01@gmail.com

Fei’s second plan is to work on a book (or potentially a blog) that features worldclass athletes who have retired. “I am friends with Michael O’Malley. He was a four-time U.S. Tae Kwon Do Champion and captain of the U.S. Team. He represented his country nearly 30 years ago and is still extraordinary. I want to interview and write stories about these hidden heroes and share them with the world. People will be interested to know what they have accomplished and what they will continue to contribute.” Last but not least, Fei would like to open an art gallery to feature artworks produced by her mother, father and herself.

“My mother is a huge fan of Fryeburg Academy just as I am,” Fei says. “People will ask my mother, ‘Where did Fei go to college?’ She will say, ‘I don’t know but she went to Fryeburg Academy and it was great!’ Fryeburg always acknowledged my existence. They put me on a live radio show. I was a DJ in China for a year and Alan (Whittemore) made sure that I got to do that here. Me and my broken English. I did an interview with WMWV and talked about my life and who I was. I talked about China and the politics. They asked me to do a commercial for Fryeburg Academy. I just closed a $3 million project at Sapient, but I remember these things more.”

Fei hopes to continue contributing to Fryeburg by working as an event coordinator in Boston, advising students and sharing her Fryeburg stories for generations to come. Written by Rachel Andrews Damon ‘76

We have three children, Valerie Hammond Tripp ‘81, Greg ‘82 and Todd ‘83 and eight grandchildren. Ed and I both taught school in Connecticut but we decided to return to Fryeburg so that our children could also have the FA experience that had meant so much to us.

Terry Brown Ward ‘74 & Robin Ward ‘71 were married on September 22, 1977. Terry and Robin met during Terry’s freshman year and Robin’s senior year, when another dorm student could not go to a social event at the Harvey Gibson Gym, and Terry took her place. They dated on and off throughout that school year. Robin went off to college and subsequently enlisted in the Army. Terry and Robin kept in touch over the next several years, by mail, and occasionally meeting in person, all while dating other people. In 1976, while both were enrolled in separate colleges (Massachusetts and Maine, respectively), Terry drove to Maine to visit Robin, and they began dating again, and ultimately were married on September 22, 1977. At Terry’s urging, Robin re-entered the Army soon after their marriage. Robin worked in medical administration, while Terry picked up several temporary jobs in criminal justice and administrativetype jobs, as they moved where the Army sent them. They were stationed in Germany for several years. In 1995, after 20 years of service, Robin retired from the Army while stationed in Colorado, and they moved to Florida, where Robin continued his career in medical administration, and Terry pursued her career in Criminal Justice. Currently, Robin and Terry reside in Central Florida (Mount Dora area), about 25 miles northwest of Orlando. Robin works in a local city government administrative position, and Terry is a licensed Realtor® with Coldwell Banker. Email: terryward@mymtdoraagent.net

Sally Reynolds Whitaker ‘55 & Ed Whitaker ‘53 were married on April 20, 1957. Sally says, “We dated ‘quietly’ at FA. After Ed graduated, he went off to the Navy, I had two more years at FA.

Donna Potter Edwards ‘56 & Robert Edwards ‘55 write, “What a wonderful idea you have! ‘The FA Marriage Project’ will not only serve to keep alums in touch with Fryeburg Academy, it will also be fun for the couples. I know Bob and I can certainly recall many positive, personal, meaningful events from our time at the Academy. Thank you for the opportunity to share. Your warm response to Bob and me regarding the two pictures we sent included some questions. I hope the following information will be useful to you. We were married at the Fryeburg Congregational Church on September 21, 1957. Our three children, Michael, Cathy, and Jonathan, have blessed us with seven grandchildren. The younger two are ages 8 and 10; the older five are now adults in their 20’s. We are looking forward to greeting our first great-grandchild—due to arrive in March. You asked for a bit about what we have done with our lives. Bob and I were both educators. Bob taught physics, first at Westbrook High School (1964 – 1969), and then at Winthrop High, where he also did a few years as assistant principal and athletic director. He was at Winthrop from 1970 to 1996, when he retired. I taught English at Winthrop High School and Livermore Falls High; then I went to Cony High School in Augusta where I was a guidance counselor for 18 years, until I retired in 1998. We have enjoyed many years with lots of kids, in the classroom and with their activities. Since retirement we have been primarily involved with family events. This past year we celebrated granddaughter Jessica’s wedding, for which Bob took the pictures. He is the family photographer, and is always called upon to do this; I lend a hand with the organization and presentation. Our kids keep us young. This May we survived culture shock in New York City as we attended granddaughter Caitlyn’s graduation from NYU’s TV and Film Institute. That involved two ceremonies—one day at Madison Square Garden for the TISCH Celebration, the next at Yankee Stadium for graduation (and I am a dedicated Red Sox fan!). It was an education for us just jamming ourselves into the subway to get from Manhattan to the Bronx. We definitely challenged our comfort zone on that trip, but had a great time. We cherish our small-town roots. Bob and I have fond memories of our high school years at Fryeburg Academy. We were lucky to each benefit from much individual attention from our teachers as we received a quality academic education. It has made a tremendous contribution to our continued personal growth. We learned a lot while at the Academy: about the world, about ourselves—and thankfully—about one another. Now here is Fryeburg Academy sending us you, Rachel. Obviously, the quality is still there! We wish you good success for your latest outreach project. We like it!” Bob writes, “Now that Donna’s given you an overview of our lives, let me tell you what really happened. I first saw her, shortly after she moved to East Fryeburg, in the fall of 1952 - her freshman year. She was the prettiest girl I had ever seen, and I must confess, I was smitten with her. East Fryeburg didn’t provide a school bus, so the oldest boy there was expected to buy a car and transport the others. Because of this, I got to see Donna every day going back and forth to school and at the Academy; we soon became best friends, but we never dated. I always knew she was beautiful and fun to be with, but it wasn’t until I got older that I realized how intelligent she is. Finally, the fall of 1956, we dated. (Yeah I know, but you have to understand I was a little shy in those days.) Our first date was the Fall Sports Dance at Fryeburg Academy on November 3, 1956. The following year, on September 21, 1957, we were married; it was just before I deployed to Germany with the Army. Marrying Donna is a decision I never regretted, and by the way, I still think she’s the prettiest thing going.” Email: dbedwards@roadrunner.com

Asa (A.O./Bodie) Pike IV ‘57 & Karen Schildberg Pike ‘58 were married on December 1, 1962. They met on a blind date arranged by Karen’s sister, Nancy Schildberg Hogan ‘56, set up on Karen’s first day at Fryeburg Academy! As Karen says, “A spark ignited on that date!” A.O. went to Bowdoin after graduation and Karen went to Chicago to nursing school. After graduation from college, they met up in Boston. After marrying, A.O. worked at the Employers Insurance Company and Karen worked at Mass General Hospital. They moved back to Fryeburg to raise their children. Karen says, “Fryeburg and the Academy have endless fond memories for us.” Email: karenpike@roadrunner.com Gloria Horne Burnell ‘49 & Clayton Burnell ‘47 were married on September 3rd, 1949. Gloria writes, “Two weeks later Clayt entered the University of Maine at Orono as a freshman and he graduated with a degree in Chemical Engineering in June 1953. During that time, I held numerous jobs, the last two years being bookkeeper for the Student Union Building Fund. At Graduation President Hauck awarded the working wives of the graduating class P.H.T. (Pulling Hubby Thru) degrees and that is my only claim to fame. Upon graduating Clayt was employed by Eastman Kodak Company and we moved to Rochester, NY, where we lived for the next two years. At that time Clayt was transferred to Honolulu, Hawaii, where we lived for three years (tough assignment!). He was then reassigned to Rochester, NY, for three more years. Following that we were sent to San Francisco where Clayt continued with Eastman Kodak until his retirement in 1989. Our first child was adopted in 1962, a son named Eric James. Our second was adopted in 1965, a girl named Victoria Lou. Both have remained unmarried so we have no grandchildren to report. You asked how we met. We grew up in Hiram and were acquainted as children but since we were separated by four grades in grammar school did not spend much time together. We became re-acquainted during my second year at FA since we rode the same bus together. Clayt had returned to Fryeburg to complete his senior year after interrupting his education for a stint in the U.S. Navy. That is where the romance blossomed. You asked what we are doing now. We had always shared an interest in antiques and I had a shop for ten years after many years as a stay-at-home mother. In our retirement we continue that interest and still attend shows, auctions, etc., and continue to refine our collections. Clayt has been active in senior exercise classes for many years now and teaches a senior aerobics class several times a week. Other than that we spend summers in my childhood town of Hiram and live rather boring lives!” Email: cgburnell@yahoo.com

Jeffrey Brown ‘81 and Denise Sanborn Brown ‘82 were married on March 26, 1983. Denise writes, “We met in algebra class and started dating in 1979. We were married in Fryeburg, Maine, and moved to Elemendorf AFB, Anchorage, AK, until 1985; moved back to Maine until 2002 and moved back to the interior of Alaska (Delta Junction). It took us seven years to build our own home (out of pocket) on the most beautiful piece of property; the first two years living without electricity, phone and three years without running water. To say the least, we roughed it and did the “Alaskan Thing”.............and let me say, I DON’T WANT TO DO IT AGAIN!! Jeff’s chosen profession is Carpentry and I work as a School Secretary. Our son, Buck Hunter Brown ‘02 lives in Eagle River, AK, and is a pipefitter. Our youngest son, Lucas James Brown was born May 24, 1988, and passed April 9, 1991. Looking forward to our son’s wedding next June and ‘hopefully some grandchildren????’ We are now enjoying life and some serious playing. Through all our adversities, life is still good!!!

As the inductees and their families and friends gathered, the stories of yesteryear started to materialize. Smiles and laughter echoed throughout the lobby and soon it became a packed house. After 45 minutes of socialization, the crowd made their way into the auditorium to take in the inaugural induction ceremony. The first class elected totaled 13 members. The program began with a few words from Headmaster Dan Lee, followed by the invocation by Mike Mendonca, Coach Minister for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Then a short slideshow set to music followed the high school careers of each member. Each inductee was introduced with a biography about his or her accomplishments while at the Academy and their continued successes in everyday life. Once inducted, each person was escorted to the stage by a current Fryeburg Academy student athlete. Each recipient gave a brief acceptance speech generally thanking fellow classmates, teachers, coaches and family for their successes. In the case of the six posthumous inductees, a family member or close friend spoke on their behalf. The first inductee into the Hall of Excellence was Harvey Dow Gibson 1898. Simply stated,

Mark Butterfield accepted the award on behalf of the Gibson family. Next was Clifford Gray ‘23, former teacher and coach at the Academy; his plaque was accepted by one of his former players, Jim Osgood ‘56. Fryeburg Academy icon, Scott Kelly ‘53, was next to be enshrined and his pride and humility shone through as he thanked all those who made his time at the Academy so special. Robert Payne ‘57, accepted the plaque in honor of his brother Rayfield Payne ‘55, and spoke of how Rayfield’s spirit seems to live on in current runners here at the Academy. As the ceremony continued, the emotions of the day began to sink in as well. When Robert Graustein ‘57, was inducted, his son Stephen ‘80, and his grandson, Bobby, accepted on his behalf. As you read this, it is believed that grandson Bobby still has the plaque held tightly in his arms, honoring his grandfather. Next was Thomas “Ned” McSherry’59, whose accomplishments in the field of skiing amazed everyone in attendance. He was followed by Larry Gallagher ‘64, the only inductee to play on (1963 football) and coach on (1982 baseball) a state championship team. Colin Hurd ‘64, who was lost to us in Vietnam, was honored by his brother, Herbie Hurd ‘73. Colin’s memory was widely felt during the proceedings as many of his college classmates from UVM were in attendance, as well. Pat Wood ‘68, was the first female inducted into the Hall of Excellence, and deservedly so. Her list of accomplishments and service to the Academy was long and noteworthy. Fellow classmate, Gerry Durgin ‘68, was next to be added to the class. Although his credentials are long and impressive as well, he deflected praise and

2010 Fryeburg Academy Hall of Excellence-Bob Payne ‘57 speaks about his brother-Rayfield Payne ‘55; Todd Gallagher ‘82 congratulates his brother-Larry Gallagher ‘64; Emma McDonald ‘11 escorts Pat Wood ‘68; Claudine Clarke ‘11 escorts Bob Payne ‘57; Haley Kollander ‘13 escorts Rocky Manoriti directed it to his fellow classmate and other recipients as well. The emotions of the day got to everyone when Rocky Manoriti was escorted to the stage to receive his son Vincent Manoriti’s ‘85, plaque. Everyone remembers how Vinnie was taken from us all too soon, but his memory lives on in the heart of his dad. Former Olympian Marcus Nash ‘89, became the next-to-last athlete to be inducted. He was unable to attend but his mother, Dr. Mary Nash, proudly accepted on his behalf. The final member of the inaugural class was Jacki Eastman Buzzell ‘90. Jacki is, without a doubt, one of the greatest role models for our young female athletes, not just in high school, but in the community as well. Each newly elected member received a plaque commemorating their induction into the Hall of Excellence. Their names were then placed on a permanent plaque that will hang in the Gibson Recreational Center for all to see. A brunch for all the inductees, family members and friends was held at the LaCasce Dining Hall. Again more stories and laughter followed as this special day continued. The events of the day continued at the afternoon football game, as the 13 inductees were introduced to the public for the first time. The game started with a flyover in honor of the two inductees who were lost during service to their country. At halftime the Fryeburg Academy International Group spread out over the midfield area and formed an impressive backdrop to the inductees who were escorted one by one to the middle of the field by the Fryeburg Academy Cheerleaders. When it was all said and done, everyone involved remarked what a great day it was, what an honor it was to be a part of, and how this was a shining moment in the history of Fryeburg Academy. To remember the past, to link it with the present and to make it a goal for future Academy students, the formation of the Hall of Excellence was long overdue.

I worked 30 years for the U.S. Forest Service in California as a District Ranger on two districts; it was a wonderful job. Worked for 30 years with them and have been retired for 30 years, we do a lot of traveling and live in the mountains in California. During World War II I served in the U.S. Navy. I volunteered at seventeen and served in the South Pacific. I was in from April 16, 1943 until March 16, 1946. I flew in dive bombers, torpedo bombers, sea planes (Duck, Goose, PBY), PV Ventura. I am amazed at how big the academy is now and the local people have an excellent school. We do a lot of traveling and am healthy at 85. Enjoy your magazine and want to keep getting it. Best of luck in the future.” 1959 William Prentice ‘59 writes, “I am doing fine. Fishing, riding four-wheeler, hunting, and I am SGT of Arms of our Local American Legion.

Despite my hearing loss, I’ve become quite adept at being able to accomplish my job and be successful thanks to such great advances in technology over the years and the increasing numbers of people communicating via email and text message that makes it possible for me to do things that used to require picking up the phone. Unfortunately, I still have difficulty with some very basic things, such as hearing doorbells, being woken up in an emergency if I am asleep by myself, or hearing someone trying to get my attention - things a lot of people take for granted. Luckily I have reached a point in my life where I feel secure and settled - and capable of taking on the responsibility of a hearing service dog. I say it this way because as much as the dog will assist me in all these areas where I am lacking, it is still a living creature that will need to be cared for, will need constant training and, because it will be with me 24/7, will require significant adjustments in how I go about my daily routines. I applied to a great organization in Massachusetts, NEADS Dogs for Deaf and Disabled Americans, and was accepted to their waiting list earlier this year. Over the summer I was able to raise $3500 towards my responsibility to contribute $9500 towards the $20,000 cost to NEADS of raising and training the dog.

Katie Shorey ‘06 writes, “I attended St. Lawrence University in upstate NY where I majored in government. I was very involved in campus activities… I was in the Vagina Monologues my freshman year but didn’t have the opportunity for other plays or musical theater (SLU couldn’t even come close to FA’s theater programs and vocal jazz ensemble)… I had a few other adventures along the way. I participated in an offcampus semester at American University my sophomore spring. I was in a program called Transforming Communities and it was the best part of my college career- it truly changed my life and it is how I was first introduced to the wonderful, captivating, and fun city of Washington, DC… I worked for Running Start, a non-profit that inspires young women to run for political office. It is a fabulous organization so please check it out. The following summer I returned to DC to work for a political action committee that works to elect pro-choice, democratic women to office… That fall… I took a leave of absence from SLU because I was accepted as one of seven fellows in the Star Fellowship Program affiliated with Running Start… I returned to SLU for my last semester, graduated in May, and then hit the road for a 6 week cross country trip. After putting 10,000+ miles on my car… I moved to DC permanently. I was hired in October as a Program Associate for the Partnership for Public Service, a non-profit, non-partisan organization that works to improve the federal government and inspire a new generation to enter public service as a career. All in all, I am happy, healthy, and motivated. I miss Maine and Fryeburg Academy, but I am so thankful that I was a part of such a wonderful community.

Heartbreak provides Driver’s Ed. Scholarships to Academy students. After a single car accident took the life of 21-year-old Fred Richards Jr. ‘07 on January 8, 2010, his family was overcome with grief. His mother, Tina Hansen, sister, Barbara Hansen ‘13 and stepfather, Chris Hansen, decided to do something positive in Fred’s honor. They began raising funds to give driver’s education scholarships. Tina Hansen says, “Fred was not wearing a seatbelt when he died. He was an inexperienced driver and had just gotten his license. I want other kids to take driving very, very seriously and I want them all to take driver’s ed. I want them to learn the skills required to get behind the wheel of a car.” The Hansens had two very successful fundraisers in June 2010 marking Fred’s 22nd birthday. They raised over $4,300 to establish the scholarship fund. On Wednesday, the Hansens met at Fryeburg Academy’s Alumni Office to draw the names of the two winning students. Ariana Stinchfield ‘11 and Zach Sargent ‘12, both of Denmark, Maine, received enrollment in driver’s education courses thanks to the Fred Richards Jr. Scholarship and the generosity of the Hansen Family.
