LETTER FROM THE RECTOR

Dear Friends,

My reasons for coming to Chatham Hall back in 2019 were many and varied, but at the very heart of my decision was the care that our Board of Trustees has shown for our community over the years, and the commitment to ensuring the well-being for each and every member of our community. I wanted to be a proud part of an institution that was more than ready and willing, it was ready and wanting to become architects of the ways schools integrate all aspects of holistic health and wellness. I wanted to lead the way to make sure this dream became a reality.

In our 2016 Strategic Plan, we identified that we needed to build a synergistic system of programs that help us ensure the holistic development of girls. We’ve modernized that into a framework we call Living Well through which we can articulate the many dimensions of health and life for today’s students. Intellectual. Emotional. Physical. Spiritual. Financial. Social. Occupational. Environmental. Inclusive. These nine dimensions of wellness converge to make up Living Well, and are at the heart of all that we do here.

We are poised at a historic moment for Chatham Hall as we kickoff Boundless Potential, a campaign which will transform the community experience and already has in so many ways. At the outset of this campaign we set a goal of $35 million and, with the help of our donors, we are on track to exceed that goal.

A few years ago we began the quiet phase of this campaign. We know that our faculty are the heart of this school, and provide the kind of transformative experiences that allow our students to move beyond the boundaries of their comfort zones to realize the true power of their potential. With this in mind, the first key piece of Boundless Potential has been renovating our faculty housing and strengthening and transforming our community living spaces. We now stand at the most ambitious and exciting phase of the campaign. Living Well is ready for a seriousness of purpose in our facilities that matches our programs. Because of this campaign, we will be breaking ground this spring on a new athletics, health, and wellness facility. This new building will be a true destination for exploration. It will allow students to explore their personal interests, and all facets of Living Well. I invite you to learn more about this wonderful gift to our community throughout this issue of the Chat

We are confident that Chatham Hall is worthy of significant philanthropy and our programs are worthy of bold ideas. Join us in making a gift to this campaign. Join us in choosing Chatham Hall!

Esto Perpetua, Rachel A. Connell Rector

From the Acting Head of School

Folks, I knew the minute I heard about Boundless Potential that this record-breaking campaign would be like nothing Chatham Hall had ever seen before, and the results would be too. All of the hallmarks of Boundless Potential appeal to me. It builds on the firm foundation of what Chatham Hall has always been, and allows us to continue an evolution of exceptional care for young women that began more than a century ago. Yet in doing so we’re not only positively impacting our own students, we’re going beyond national boundaries into a truly global conversation of women’s health.

I’ve been involved in schools of all sizes for 30 years, the last 25 as a head of school at institutions across the south. Believe me when I tell you that I know schools, and I like to dream big. One thing I know about schools is that a strong school is one with a strong financial foundation of a healthy endowment and annual fund. This financial health allows a school to truly offer unique opportunities for 21st century students. Chatham Hall has this kind of health and this campaign will cement it for the future. With such resources to draw upon, Chatham Hall will be able to offer the kind of modernized, cutting edge programs that will put it out in front of other schools and produce the kind of graduates who begin their journeys with so much more insight that they are miles ahead of their peers.

I echo Rector Connell’s words that Chatham Hall is worthy of significant philanthropy and our programs are worthy of bold ideas. Please, join us in choosing Chatham Hall.

Yearbook Wins Gold in National Program of Excellence

The 2022 Chatham Hall yearbook, the Chathamite, has been recognized in Jostens’ National Yearbook Program of Excellence at the gold level, one of only 11 award winners nationwide. This is the second consecutive year the publication has been honored, winning silver in 2021.

According to the Jostens website, “the National Yearbook Program of Excellence Award is given based on the extraordinary efforts that go into creating a yearbook and making it accessible to every student.” The criteria include: creating a meaningful yearbook for all students, ensuring a yearbook for every student, and effective project management. Schools earn gold-level recognition for achievements in all three categories.

“It’s really exciting to have all of our hard work recognized at a national level,” noted Rachel Balsley, yearbook advisor and director of communications. “The staff put a lot of time, effort, and creativity into creating a collection of memories for students, and I couldn’t be more proud.”

Hiltwine Writes for Net Assets Magazine

Chatham Hall’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jennifer Hiltwine has published “An Evolving Risk Registry” in Net Assets magazine. The magazine is the official publication of the National Business Officers Association (NBOA), an organization dedicated to developing, delivering, and promoting best business practices to advance independent schools.

Hiltwine’s article explores a quantitative approach to risk assessment that can help schools in devising more effective risk treatments and tracking risk responses across time.

Chatham Hall Introduces Turtle Logo

Chatham Hall introduced its new turtle logo in summer 2022 with a light hearted community vote on an official turtle name.

“It’s been really fun to have our community involved in welcoming our new turtle,” said Director of Athletics Jeremy Eubank. “This particular logo really embodies the competitive nature and good sportsmanship of our studentathletes. To know that alumnae, parents, students, and faculty were all involved in naming this turtle made it extra exciting for the final vote.”

Myrtle, the most popular name based on two rounds of voting, now graces everything from athletics signage to School Store spirit items, and will even begin making appearances at sporting events and family activities.

“Myrtle seems like a classic Chatham Hall choice,” noted Eubank. “Its popularity doesn’t surprise me in the least. I look forward to seeing Myrtle a lot this year!”

Chatham Hall Hosting Five 2022-2023 Athletic Tournaments

Chatham Hall will host five athletic tournaments in the 2022-2023 academic year.

A Cross Country invitational took place on Sept. 17 that featured schools from North Carolina and Virginia, and a course through Chatham Hall’s more than 350-acre campus, including the bamboo forest. Also in the fall season, a Varsity Tennis team tournament took place on Sept. 24, and an individual JV Tennis tournament on Oct. 15 that allowed players to engage in an entirely new format.

To finish out the year, Soccer will host a four-team tournament on March 25 that will feature two teams from Virginia and two from North Carolina. The 2nd Annual Turtle Open Golf Tournament will take place on May 3 at the Tuscarora Country Club where Chatham Hall hosts matches throughout the season.

Eubank, Smith to Serve on VISAA Committees

Two Chatham Hall coaches will be serving on Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association (VISAA) state-level sports committees in the 2022-2023 school year.

Jeremy Eubank, director of athletics and head Varsity Soccer coach, will serve on the Girls Soccer Committee and will be the chair of the Cross Country Committee — which includes overseeing championship races for three divisions.

Zach Smith, head golf coach, will serve on the Golf Committee. Smith led the Turtles to a perfect record on their home course in the 2022 season, with Sophie Leak ‘23 finishing second in the inaugural VISAA Girls State Golf Invitational.

Challenge (FTC). This level of competition included middle schools and high schools, and featured a relatively small robot to play a game on a relatively small field. Instead of designing and building a robot of 18 inches to play on a 12-foot by 12-foot field, competing in the FRC will require the team to design and build a robot of up to 60 inches and 120 pounds, as well as to play on a 25-foot by 50-foot field.

TuTu Turtles to Compete in FIRST® Robotics Competition

The TuTu Turtles, Chatham Hall’s robotics team, will compete for the first time ever in the FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC) in the 2023 season. They will now be known as Team 9003.

FRC combines the excitement of a sports competition with the rigors of science and technology. According to the league’s website, “under strict rules, limited time and resources, teams of students are challenged to raise funds, design a team ‘brand,’ hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get.”

Dating back to theTuTu Turtles’ creation in 2012, the team has competed solely in the FIRST® Tech

“I told the students that one of the things they’re going to have to get used to is carrying the robot onto the field,” joked team coach Dan Waters, who added that a 12-pound battery would also be part of the total weight.

Waters, who coached the FRC team at George Washington High School in Danville, Va. prior to beginning his tenure at Chatham Hall, is certain that the move up to FRC will be good for the TuTu Turtles.

“We made the switch at the request of the students,” said Waters. “They are ready for it and excited for it. Once students had the chance to see the FRC games they thought it would be a lot of fun. The games are faster, there’s more that they can do with the robot, it’s just more fun and excitement.”

The TuTu Turtles’ FRC season will commence in January 2023 when this year’s game is announced. Led by Estelle Mason ’23 and Marland Bustamante ’23, the team will participate in a condensed season compared to the FTC season, and will also have the opportunity to work on their robot during a January Term course.

Gould Honored on Lee-Yardley Day

Chatham Hall marked its 34th Lee-Yardley Day on Sept. 16, a day of recognition for those whose lives have impacted the School.

Named for Drs. Lee and Yardley, former rectors who served Chatham Hall for a total of 43 years, the celebrations included the annual Lee-Yardley Day Chapel service at which Mr. Steven Gould was honored with the Alice Overbey Award for demonstrated, outstanding commitment and service to Chatham Hall by an individual from the greater Chatham community.

A Danville native and the founder and principal of SoVa Legal, Gould focuses his practice on employment law, estate planning, general corporate matters, and assisting clients who interact with or are regulated by state and local governments in Virginia. Prior to attending law school, he served for five years as a policy adviser in the Office of the Governor in Richmond where he focused his work on economic and workforce development, agriculture, housing, and executive clemency. Gould has advised Chatham Hall on a full range of important issues for several years.

“My relationship with Chatham Hall is one that means a great deal to me, and is one that I value tremendously. Not just because it’s my only client with a Cookie Break, which all clients should have, and not just because so many members of the wonderful faculty and staff are people that I consider dear friends,” said Gould as he accepted his award.

“Chatham Hall is not just a place or a school. It is a community and an experience that prepares the next generation to lead lives of impact. We need you to lead lives of impact now more than ever. The world is changing so rapidly, and with that change comes plenty of good, plenty of bad, and a host of new challenges. If I am playing even a small part in the much bigger mission of this School, I am humbled and grateful to have that opportunity.”

Four Students Earn College Board Academic Honors

Four Chatham Hall students have earned academic honors from the College Board National Recognition Programs. These National Recognition Programs grant underrepresented students with academic honors that can be included on college and scholarship applications and connect students with universities across the country, helping them meaningfully connect to colleges and stand out during the admissions process. Colleges and scholarship programs identify students awarded National African American, Hispanic, Indigenous and/or Rural/Small Town Recognition through College Board’s Student Search Service.

Catherine Nichols ’24, Taylor Xu ’24, and Rose Yang ’24 have all been recognized with a National Rural and Small Town Award while Stephanie CanoBarranco ’24 was awarded a National Hispanic Recognition Award.

“We want to honor the hard work of these students through the College Board National Recognition Programs. This program creates a way for colleges and scholarship programs to connect directly with underrepresented students who they are hoping to reach,” said Tarlin Ray, College Board senior vice president of BigFuture. “We hope the award winners and their families celebrate this prestigious honor and it helps them plan for their big future.”

No-No Boy Brings Hidden Histories to Chatham Hall

This year’s Writer in Residence, musician, historian, teacher, and songwriter Dr. Julian Saporiti of NoNo Boy had a full schedule during his Sept. 20 & 21 residency. Conducting a songwriting workshop, visiting classes, enjoying meals with students, and giving an evening performance were all part of his itinerary while on campus.

As described on Saporiti’s website, the No-No Boy project is “an immersive multimedia work blending original folk songs, storytelling, and projected archival images all in service of illuminating hidden American histories.” The work grew from Saporiti’s research into untold Asian American histories, which led him to earn a master's degree in American studies from the University of Wyoming in Laramie and a doctoral degree from Brown University where his research focused on race, refugees, music, memory and immigration.

"Having Julian Saporiti be our Writer in Residence was really important because of how interdisciplinary his work is,” said Dr. Francis Yun, director of music. “He tells stories of everyday people, marginalized communities, and presents history that is lesser known in a medium that we all can understand: songs. He showed us how important our individual stories are and gave students the agency to explore their own creativity. Anyone can be creative."

In addition to offering a songwriting

workshop with Yun, Saporiti also spoke with multiple English classes and the Advanced U.S. History class. He had lunch with Theatre Department director Cameron Ayres and two students to discuss documentary film-making, and dinner with Deborah Glymph, director of diversity, equity, and inclusion, as well as Chatham Hall’s DEI Ambassadors. No-No Boy’s artistic director Emilia Halvorsen also worked with English III students to prepare for an embroidery project connected to their study of The Scarlet Letter

“My experience was extremely fun as well as eye-opening. The sheer amount of detail that goes into every single one of Julian Saporiti's songs is amazing. There is a history lesson hidden within every lyric,” said Meaghan Kress ’24, who attended the songwriting workshop.

“I learned not only to practice being present and aware of the ambience around me as I move through life, but to be actively engaged in my own history, to seek out my origin and develop my own understanding of my family's past. I truly enjoyed the privilege of meeting Julian Saporiti. The perspective I gained from listening to him talk about his curiosity of the past and of his heritage is invaluable.”

The evening performance included five No-No Boy songs, each accompanied by images and video projected behind Saporiti and

Halvorsen. The duo received a standing ovation after performing “The Imperial Twist,” “Two Candles in the Dark,” “Khmerica,” “Boat People,” and “Gimme Chills,” during which Yun performed with them on the piano. They sang “You Are Love” as an encore.

During the performance, Saporiti spoke directly to the students. He described his work as “a school project run amok.”

“This is something I started as a homework assignment,” he said. “You could do the same thing if you choose to travel the world . . . Make sure that you find research projects that really excite you. If you turn your research into art, into a documentary film, into a chapter in a novel, if you turn your research into that then you can share it with your friends.”

Chatham Hall's Writer in Residence program is partially funded by the School's endowment. When fully funded, the Writer in Residence Fund will be named in tribute to Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Poet Laureate Claudia Emerson ’75. Contributions are welcome. To make a donation, please contact the Advancement Office, Attn: Claudia Emerson Writer in Residence Fund, 800 Chatham Hall Circle, Chatham, VA 24531.

G’Day, Mate: School Launches Australia Exchange

In summer 2022, Sophia Hurst ’25 traveled to St. Margaret’s Anglican Girls School in Brisbane, Australia as the first student in Chatham Hall’s new exchange program.

“I really wanted to go on the exchange because I’m just someone who likes to get out and travel, I have a very strong sense of wanderlust. I wanted to make new memories, experience new things, and just have a better understanding of the world outside of the U.S.,” said Hurst.

St. Margaret’s is an independent day and boarding school for girls from Pre-Prep to Year 12. There are approximately 1,300 students in the school, with nearly 900 girls in the secondary school.

The exchange program with Chatham Hall originated in conversations through the Global Educational Benchmark Group (GEBG) around 2019, but implementation was delayed due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Hurst was the first student to travel, arriving back to Chatham Hall in late September, while five of St. Margaret’s students arrived on campus in October for a seven-week stay.

“This is something that can really enlarge the world for our students,” said Dean of Academics Martha Griswold. “They’ll meet new people and try new things. There’s really nothing like it.”

In the future, the program will facilitate not only student exchange between the two schools but faculty members as well. Due to academic year differences in the two countries, Chatham Hall community members will travel mainly in the summer while St. Margaret’s community members will travel mainly in the fall.

This year’s exchange students to Chatham Hall, Aggie Walker ’25, Lily Alford ’25, Rose Brown ’25, Michaela Chong ’25, and Sophie Manly ’25, stayed through Thanksgiving holiday to get a taste of this specifically American holiday.

During their exchange programs, students complete coursework from their home institutions while also attending classes of interest at their host institutions. They participate fully in athletics, clubs, and residential life programs during their time abroad, and have the opportunity to travel in their host regions.

“This exchange is incredible, especially if you are excited to explore new things,” noted Hurst. “I was nervous about going at first but it’s something that I’m really glad I did because I learned so much from it. I understand if others are scared about going, but they shouldn’t let their fear stop them from doing it because we are going to grow and learn most when we are outside of our comfort zones. That’s definitely something that Chatham Hall teaches us.”

Leslie a Slam Dunk as Guth Leader in Residence

in an afternoon session, and shared a memory of a difficult moment in her high school basketball career.

she was inducted into both the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame.

Excitement was palpable in the hours before Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) legend Lisa Leslie arrived on campus Oct. 18. Students waited in the Well, hoping to catch a glimpse of her.

“I’ve never been so excited to meet anyone in my life,” said Hadley Busbee ’24. “She’s been my idol for a long time.”

As the 2022-2023 Polly Wheeler Guth ’44 Leader in Residence, Leslie’s visit included opportunities for all community members to speak with and even enjoy meals with her. In addition to large and small gatherings, Leslie also took a student-led tour of campus, gave an interview to members of The Columns student newspaper, and had a chance to meet with the Black Student Union (BSU).

Leslie chatted with student-athletes

“You as young women are going to learn the most about yourselves through sports,” she told them. “It’s easy to cheer when everything is going well but you really need to check in with yourself when it’s not. Life is about how you recover, and challenging yourself in tough moments. These are going to be moments that will help you build the woman you want to become. Whether it’s grades or relationships, whatever it is, these are the building blocks.”

Known around the world for her basketball skills, Leslie was the first WNBA player to win the regular season MVP, the All-Star Game MVP, and the playoff MVP in the same season (2001). That year she also led the Los Angeles Sparks to their first WNBA Championship and the next became the WNBA all-time leading scorer, was named MVP of the regular season for the second year in a row in leading the Sparks to their first back-to-back championship, and shocked the world with the first slam-dunk in WNBA history. Leslie would go on to win her third MVP trophy of the WNBA in 2006. As part of Team USA in 1996, 2000, 2004, and 2008, she became the first team sport athlete to win four consecutive Olympic Gold Medals. In 2015,

Off the court, Leslie has achieved similarly high levels of success. Leslie authored Don’t Let the Lipstick Fool You in 2008, and in 2010 became the first WNBA player turned co-owner (Los Angeles Sparks). In 2012, she received her master’s degree in business administration from the University of Phoenix as well as launched the Lisa Leslie Basketball & Leadership Academy. She became a commentator for ESPN in 2004, and has since been an in-studio sports analyst for ABC, Turner, Fox Sports Net, Fox Florida, and NBC. She is currently a co-host of CBS Sports’ We Need To Talk, and the reigning Coach of the Year of the BIG3. Leslie also starred in the Lionsgate film Uncle Drew alongside NBA superstar Kyrie Irving and NBA legends Shaquille O’Neal and Reggie Miller, released in June 2018.

“She has achieved so much and to be able to learn more about her process was great” said Mary Blair Tankard ’25. “I wanted to learn more about what she knew she liked and what she wanted to do with it all.”

Leslie addressed her many achievements while speaking

to students, giving them an important reminder.

“As young women, it’s important to realize you don’t have to be just one thing, or fit in just one box. You don’t have to carry just that label. I just want to remind you that you don’t have to choose just one thing,” she said. “You can be many things. Don’t let labels define who you are and don’t let society tell you who you have to be.”

The message resonated with students.

“Meeting her and seeing her confidence, it really shows me that I am capable of doing just as much as she has done and that I shouldn’t be scared to step outside of my comfort zone and try new things,” said Ana Charway ’26.

The Polly Wheeler Guth ’44 Leader in Residence is an endowed program that brings an internationally-known female leader to Chatham Hall each academic year. These leaders spend two days on campus working with students, as well as deliver an evening keynote address to the School community.

“Someone as talented as Lisa Leslie, who has undertaken so much in so many areas, is exactly the kind of leader we want our students to be able to not just meet but interact with and learn from,” said Dean of Academics Martha Griswold. “Our Guth Leader in Residence program allows our students to really find out what drives worldrenowned female leaders and what their journeys have looked like. Providing them with such opportunities to envision their own lives and their own paths is an amazing gift from Chatham Hall.”

Fall Athletics Round Up

This fall we saw success on all fronts of athletics. The Cross Country team scored 15 points, a perfect score in the sport, in their last home meet of the year against North Cross School and Carlisle School. Field Hockey has seen tremendous improvement from the start of the season, including a close match with Summit School and a tie with North Cross School.

Varsity Volleyball earned their first win of the season against North Cross School in three sets in September. They continued to take teams to four and five sets throughout the season. JV Volleyball developed their skills with each match. Varsity and JV Tennis made good strides throughout the season and collected wins against Burlington Christian Academy and Burlington School, respectively.

Varsity Tennis and Volleyball both made it into post-season play in first rounds of the Blue Ridge Athletic Conference (BRAC) tournaments, while Cross Country also competed in BRAC Championship and the VISAA State Championship.

Stinson ‘23 Named National Merit Commended Student

Liliana Stinson ’23 has been named a Commended Student in the 2023 National Merit Scholarship Program.

About 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Commended Students such as Stinson placed among the top 50,000 students who entered the 2023 competition by taking the 2021 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.

According to the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, Commended Students have demonstrated outstanding potential for academic success and represent a valuable national resource. Recognizing the contributions of such students is vital to advancement of academic excellence in our nation.

During the Fall Long Weekend, Chatham Hall introduced new international students to Washington, D.C. during a multi-day trip. Students explored the nation’s capital including its monuments, museums, and lively culture. They also enjoyed seeing more of Virginia. Luckily, the rain from Hurricane Ian did not dampen spirits as the students created a host of new memories.

International students at Chatham Hall represent 14 countries, each of which brings its unique culture and broad perspectives to the School community. Through the generosity of the Chatham Hall community, many international students are also afforded the chance to be hosted by a local family during breaks.

Edmonds, Kingery Named UChicago Outstanding Educators

Chair of the English Department Dr. Mary Edmonds and Chair of the History Department John Kingery have been named among the University of Chicago’s Outstanding Educators for 2022.

According to the university, “UChicago gives newly admitted students the opportunity to recognize the educators who have made a difference in their lives. And every year the incoming class responds with stories that are truly inspiring.”

Edmonds was nominated by Carrie Midkiff ’22 for her teaching as well as her recommendation letters for a University of Chicago summer program and college admissions. Kingery was nominated by his four-year advisee Velda Asare ’22. Both Midkiff and Asare are now first-year students at the University of Chicago.

“To have had a student who thought highly enough of her experience in my class to nominate me is truly special,” said Edmonds. “It is not every day that a student takes the time to reflect on a teacher’s impact and presence in her life. I am profoundly grateful.”

Kingery expressed similar sentiments about his nomination and award.

“It means so much that the nomination of this award came from a former student and advisee,” he said. “While I am thankful to the University of Chicago for the recognition, I am touched to learn that the work I have done in the classroom has had an impact. This award serves as a reminder of the importance of working together, teachers and students, in appreciating the journey.”

Busy at the Barn

The fall season has been busy at the barn. Major improvements on the facility were completed, including new gutters and skylights on the Mars Arena, as well as fencing and sheds for our two brand-new paddocks. Upcoming projects will include refitting the stalls in the brick barn with new dividing walls and leveling them with new rubber

This year’s Interscholastic Equestrian Association (IEA) team is young, though each member of the 11-rider squad is competing in a division higher than they have in the past. Much growth has already been shown at the start of the season, including the October 22 show held at Chatham Hall and the SWVHJA House Mountain Show in Lexington at which two riders competed.

We have codified our unmounted instruction through Horsemanship at Chatham Hall. While good horsemanship has always been a cornerstone of the riding program, Horsemanship at Chatham Hall allows instructors to track the exact skills taught as our riders grow in

our program and to forecast the point in each of their riding careers at which we expect them to achieve proficiency. A major component of the program is the requirement that each rider give two hours each season to working at the barn and assisting staff in the daily care of the horses.

A final highlight of the fall season was the Bit ‘n’ Spur Club’s sponsorship of Chatham Hall’s “Barnival.” This year’s Barnival included a Horse & Hound Parade, pumpkin carving, a fire pit with S’mores making, the Global Entrepreneurship course’s Bite of the World food cart, face painting, and pony rides. It was wonderful to have the additional presence of alumnae, parents, and Trustees on campus as it coincided with the exciting Boundless Potential campaign kickoff!

5 QUESTIONS WITH FACULTY DR. MARY EDMONDS

WHY TEACH AT CHATHAM HALL?

My first visit to Chatham Hall in May 1998 felt so much like coming home that I wanted to teach here. I was first greeted by Phyllis Hunt and then interviewed by fantastic people — Dean Claudia Emerson and the English Department: Ann Beal, Alice Cromer, Bill Black, and Beth Mullen. When I witnessed their strong sense of community and saw how bright and committed to good teaching they were, I felt that I could fit in and contribute something possibly as lasting as they had. These people valued School traditions, dressed up for Halloween, decked themselves out in purple and gold for picnics, and loved the students. Later on in the fall of 1998, when I met department chairs Don Wood (math), Geoff Braun (history), Mary Lee Black (world languages), and Cathy LaDuke (AD), I saw further evidence of a solid community life dedicated to living with integrity, curiosity, kindness, humor, and grace.

have and is often the thing in shortest supply at a boarding school where teachers continue their work outside of the classroom, late into the nights, and on weekends. We do it because we love our subject matter and we love sharing that intellectual curiosity with students.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ITEM IN YOUR CLASSROOM, AND WHY?

My favorite thing in my classroom is plural — my posters. I am delighted that students feel comfortable in my classroom and that is due to the movie, music, history, and literature posters and photographs randomly decorating the walls.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHATHAM HALL TRADITION, AND WHY?

I love the Junior Ring Hunt. I tend to teach juniors every year so I know how important that ring hunt is as a rite of passage for them. That tradition brings home the fact that the seniors are leaving and will be entrusting leadership and the care of the School to them.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE BOOKS, AUTHORS,

GENRES?

WHAT

IS ONE THING YOU WISH EVERYONE KNEW ABOUT TEACHERS/BEING A TEACHER?

It takes time and energy. Period. It takes time to choose works that might resonate with students and craft assignments that allow them to think critically and creatively. To be a good teacher you need time to think and reflect. What students most want from you is your time and attention. Time is the most valuable thing we

Edith Wharton, my dissertation author! I love the theatricality and spectacle in The Age of Innocence, The House of Mirth, and The Custom of the Country. Herman Melville’s Moby Dick, and Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass for the American classics. Jane Austen and the Brontës for British literature. Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment for Russian lit. Mysteries for the genre — mysteries typically bring order and reason out of chaos, and in an uncertain world, that is most satisfying!

5 QUESTIONS WITH STAFF

AMY BLAIR

WHAT BROUGHT YOU HERE?

I was working in the benefits department of a tobacco company in Danville that ended up going through a merger and was going to be moving to North Carolina. One of my colleagues used to work for Chatham Hall and was still in close contact with several people here. She heard of an opening in the Office of Advancement and referred me. I started in August 2005.

WHAT

IS ONE THING YOU WISH EVERYONE KNEW ABOUT BEING A PART OF THE ADVANCEMENT TEAM?

It is a fast-paced, multi-faceted office. We are busy throughout the year. Not only do we work to raise funds for the School, our work also encompasses alumnae and parent relations by providing programming that connects our alumnae, parents, and friends to the life of the School.

WHAT IS THE MOST REWARDING PART OF THE JOB?

The relationships that I’ve been able to build with our constituents. I have met some wonderful people over the years. You get to know each other. It’s nice when I’m on the phone with someone and they ask about my family and I’m able to ask about theirs. Or, when an alumna or parent arrives at one of our events and I know who they are right away and they also know me by name.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT THE CHATHAM HALL COMMUNITY?

The community! You hear it a lot and it’s true there is a real sense of community here. Chatham Hall is also very family oriented. When I came to work here my two sons were very young and it was so nice to be at a place that appreciated what it means to be a working mom.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHATHAM HALL TRADITION?

The Lantern Ceremony is probably my favorite just because of the symbolism, beauty, and serenity.

Berlin ’78 to Receive ARS Distinguished

Service Award

Letitia “Tish” Berlin ’78 was recently selected to receive a 2022 American Recorder Society (ARS) Distinguished Achievement Award. This award honors individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to development of the recorder movement in North America.

Berlin, who received a bachelor’s degree in music (piano performance) from University of North Carolina-Greensboro and a master’s degree in early music performance from Case Western Reserve University, was selected as a recipient due to her work with the recorder at a high level, over a long period of time, extending over more than one specific area of achievement; a high public profile; and significant influence in North America. She plays with the Bertamo Trio, the Farallon Recorder Quartet, Calextone, and Tibia Recorder Duo. Berlin served as ARS board president from 2006-2008.

Also honored this year was Berlin’s wife, Frances Blaker, who plays with Ensemble Vermillian, the Farallon Recorder Quartet, Calextone, and Tibia Recorder Duo. Blaker has served on the ARS Board of Directors.

“I first met both Tish and Frances one year after I began recorder at the 2011 Fall Texas Toot and was in awe of their recorder teaching ability, musicality, and mastery,” said ARS President David Podeschi.

“They are involved in workshops and festivals on both coasts as instructors and performers, from Amherst to Berkeley and the Texas Toot in the middle . . . So, at the ARS Board of Directors meeting last fall when the Distinguished Achievement Award came up, I had to ponder for about five seconds before nominating Tish and Frances.”

Spotlight: M. Dee Guillory ‘83

For M. Dee Guillory ’83, life after Chatham Hall included stops at Stanford University to earn an A.B. in economics and organizational behavior (honors), the University of Michigan to earn an M.B.A. in marketing and entrepreneurship, and Georgia State University to earn a Ph.D. in marketing.

“I worked for the railroad, Conrail, as a marketing manager in Philadelphia until I struck out and started my own marketing consulting business, D.G. Consulting,” she remembered. “I loved consulting work and specialized in working with small and mid-size businesses writing business and marketing plans, conducting marketing research, helping them get small business loans, and implementing marketing tactics in the New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania area.

“During this time, I started being asked to be a speaker at various business events. This was followed by Temple University Small Business Development Center approaching me about teaching business classes to business owners. I taught these classes and discovered a new love, teaching. I eventually accepted a full-time position as an instructor at University of South CarolinaBeaufort. I had a provost at USCB who told me, after three years, that I needed to go back to school and get a Ph.D. so that is what I did. I have been a marketing professor ever since. I am very blessed that I get paid to do what I love.”

Of all the ways that Chatham Hall has influenced her life, Guillory credits the focus and concentration honed during study halls, as well as the network of women being an alumna has brought her.

“Study Hall helped me to develop some great focus and concentration skills that I still use today,” she said. “Chatham Hall also helped me to realize my potential. It helped me to see who I could be if I worked for it. Chatham Hall also provided me with a network, which I have always known is available to me. I enjoy reunions because of the opportunity to meet incredible, intelligent, energetic women who are willing to share their experiences, wisdom, friendship, and most importantly their time.”

One of Guillory’s favorite memories is of planning and executing a Black History Month program at Chapel.

“We asked Dr. Black and he did not hesitate with saying ‘yes’ and then promptly told us we were in charge of the program,” she said. “I delivered the talk. It meant a lot to me to be able to do that.”

To today’s students, Guillory offers some simple advice: “Enjoy your time and try everything that piques your interest!”

Wulsin

Inner Guidance to Ethiopia

When Virginia Lee Wulsin Roberts ’69 graduated from Chatham Hall, she embarked on a life of possibilities.

“I went to the University of California, Santa Cruz, a very avant-garde university campus in its day,” Lee said. “I took classes in creative writing and religious studies, which fueled a desire to simultaneously seek spiritual enlightenment and prove my ability to survive in the woods. After building a log cabin by hand in the wilderness of British Columbia, and learning to live off the land, I returned to Santa Cruz and finished my B.A. degree in creative communications in 1976. A few years later, I married, had two children, and settled into a more or less traditional lifestyle.”

Lee became an associate editor and feature writer at the Yoga Journal and, after much research, published Roots of Rastafari in 1985.

“Even though I had written a book that embraced 3,000 years of Ethiopian history, I had never been there. My relationship with Ethiopia had developed vicariously through the McHenry Library at UCSC,” she said.

As a result, Lee had an intense desire to see Ethiopia, and responded to an

intuition she felt during fall of 2019 that it was time to travel. In March 2020 she was able to spend 18 days there, just before the world shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Every day of our trip was magical, seeing the sites and places I had written about in my book,” she said. “I was delighted to discover through our various guides that everything I had written was true. Highlights were visiting Axum where the Ark of the Covenant allegedly resides, Lake Tana, and Lalibela, home to the awe-inspiring rock-hewn churches. It truly was the trip of a lifetime.”

In the COVID-19 quarantines that followed, Lee revised Roots of Rastafari and republished it through Amazon in December 2020.

For Lee, her years at Chatham Hall were a foundation on which both her writing and her curiosity developed.

“At Chatham, I learned how to learn. Free from the distractions of a coed high school, I embraced a love for history and languages, and developed the literary skills that have served me throughout my life as a writer and editor for numerous publications,” she said.

“My advice is to travel while you’re young, before the obligations of family and career make it more challenging. Let the world be your teacher, and have the courage to take the path less followed. I have to say that serving as a Peace Corps volunteer after college is an excellent way to discover the world and become a global citizen, and you’ll pick up a few languages along the way. Also, a life oriented to service is its own liberation and unlocks so many doors. I served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Ukraine from 2007-2008, which was another life-changing experience. I find it ironic that I cannot travel to either Ethiopia or Ukraine today. So my final piece of advice is: When opportunity knocks, answer the door!”

Waters ‘14 Earns Virginia Architecture License

For Kathryn Waters ’14, becoming an architect has been a lifelong dream.

“When I was probably five years old, my dad brought home a CD program called ‘3D Home Architect,’ she remembers.

“This was the program they were using at the time to teach drafting in the high schools. He downloaded it on my computer, and I became obsessed with it fairly quickly. At the time, I considered it a fun game, and drew buildings that wouldn’t be able to be built if I redrew them today. Once I learned that I could actually have a job where I got to do the thing I considered my favorite game, I was sold. From that point on, I knew architecture was what I wanted to spend my life doing.”

Following her graduation from Chatham Hall, Waters attended North Carolina State University’s College of Design. There, she served on the Design Council and as president of the First Year Mentor Program. After graduating with her Bachelor of Architecture degree on a Saturday, Waters immediately began working full-time at Solex Architecture the

following Monday. She has just passed her third anniversary with Solex, and continues to love her job. In summer 2022, she earned her Virginia licensure to be an architect.

Waters, daughter of legendary Chatham Hall staff member Tammy Waters and faculty member and robotics mentor Dan Waters, looks back on the School as more than just a high school.

“As the child of a staff member, I grew up with Chatham Hall as both a playground and a goal for where I wanted to go to school,” she says.

“Once there, Chatham Hall certainly helped prepare me for the rigorous program of architecture school. I was able to slowly learn how to manage large workloads with clubs, athletics, and other commitments, and I was able to gain leadership experience on the Robotics Team. Mrs. Morley, as my art teacher, was constantly encouraging of my career goals, and, along with my dad, helped me prepare my portfolio for my application. Chatham Hall gave me the opportunity to grow in a safe environment, where successes were celebrated and failures were met with a helping hand.”

Waters encourages Chatham Hall’s

Council

“I can think of multiple mentors at Chatham Hall, NC State, and even now, who have helped or are helping me succeed. I can trust and rely on them, and it allows me to focus on keeping that passion for what I do. Also, reach out to alumni. Ask your teachers or even the advancement or communications offices if they know of any former students that attended the college you are looking at, or went into the career you are interested in. Most of us would love to talk to you about our experiences, and how you can have an even better experience.”

Paula Stewart ’04 and Imani Brooks ’16 began their terms on the Chatham Hall Alumnae Council in July 2022.

Stewart serves as a mental health clinician and resides in Memphis, Tenn. with her husband, daughters, and dog. Following her time at Chatham Hall, she earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology and international relations from Suffolk University followed by a master’s in mental health counseling and behavioral medicine from Boston University School of Medicine.

Brooks earned a B.A. in international and global studies at Emory University and is currently enrolled at the American University Washington College of Law. While a student at Chatham Hall she founded the Girl Up club and spoke about the experience as a member of the keynote panel of the National Coalition of Girls’ Schools (NCGS) 2020 conference. In 2021 she served as the keynote speaker of Chatham Hall’s GIRLS’ Day, discussing her involvement with Girl Up and the stepping stones of her life. During her first semester at American,

Brooks was awarded the J. Franklyn Bourne Annual Scholarship from the J.

A Chatham Hall Life: A Reflection by Arvia Crosby Morris ‘46

My two years at Chatham Hall were both challenging and rewarding. Coming from a less than happy childhood, I enjoyed the routine of the School, its magnificent setting, and most of all making friends — some of whom were for life.

Following Chatham Hall, I went to Wellesley College. Following Wellesley, I moved to New York City staying in a flat with Eleanor Owens Earle ’46, my Chatham Hall roommate. With a job to pay the rent, I made an eye-opening post-war European trip with an unforgettable tour of London bomb sites that brought history and my love of art alive.

I moved to Washington, D.C., sharing a tiny townhouse in Georgetown with Eleanor and had a low ladder job at National Geographic. These were McCarthy and Nixon years, and the city was very accessible to young and curious strangers.

I married Bill Morris, whom I had met years before thanks to my Chatham Hall classmate Maggie Ohrstrom Bryant ’46, in 1954 and moved back to New York City. His job at the Bankers

Trust Company sent us and then two children, my son, Spencer, and daughter, Arvia, to London in the late 50s and early 60s. As Americans we were greeted with warm hospitality. It was fascinating to be a part of the post-war scene in Europe with the rise of the Beatles, Chubby Checker, and the Profumo Affair. We enjoyed vacations abroad and made lifelong friends. These connections are still part of my life with ties to the next generation with whom I enjoy regular emails and texting. In 1964, we returned to New York City with three children including our youngest daughter, Adrienne, as well as to the family apple farm, Cedar Heights Orchards. Bill retired early, as did I, after some years managing a small retail franchise in New York City for a Scottish company.

The family property in Rhinebeck, NY has roots deep in the past and was a huge part of our lives as a family. We moved to Rhinebeck and started a pick-yourown apple business, which has now been in operation for more than 30 years. The year 2020

was phenomenal as the crop was huge and so many families came with kids and dogs – everyone loving to be outdoors, picking apples, and feeling safe. We now have about 750 apple trees, some planted for cider for my son’s cidery, Sowams Cider Works, in Warren, RI.

I developed a passion for horticulture and opportunities as a garden designer inspired by our land, and have even been published in Private Gardens of the Hudson Valley!

My daughter, Adrienne, works at Brown University and, along with her husband and daughter, enjoys spending time

at the farm and helping with the pick-your-own. My daughter, Arvia, lives in Seattle and is now retired after a successful career as a biologist in biotech. She works hard for climate legislation in Washington state.

It is my hope that all the Chatham Hall familythose still at School or wherever you are - pay attention to the problems in the world and our nation. As educated women, this is such an opportunity to make a positive contribution for your own satisfaction and to inspire others to do the same by listening, observing, and acting.

REUNION 20 23

It means being more exposed to social and environmental factors that can lead to long-term health challenges. It means being deeply entrenched in a digital world that, for better or worse, thrives on exploiting emotions and insecurities. It means spending less time outside, and more time confronting and exploring self-image. It means a feeling of great pressure regarding competition for and expense of higher education. It means concern for what the world will be like in just a few days, months, years. A Chatham Hall girl is not immune to this complexity and these pressures. Yet despite all of them, a Chatham Hall girl has boundless potential.

It is impossible to ignore the growing complexity of what it means to be a teenage girl in today’s world.

Boundless Potential: The Campaign for Chatham Hall is a comprehensive $35 million campaign supporting the School’s strategic initiatives that keep our Chatham Hall girls moving in their own bold directions. As an institution, we have established a legacy of more than a century of excellence in developing girls who thrive, leaving a positive impact on their community. Together we can continue to rise to meet the evolving needs of teenage girls, and now rise to this opportunity to set the example for girls’ schools nationwide.

Together, we will be a community in which we continue to equip curious thinkers to lead lives of impact. We will be a community in which our girls learn to choose courage over comfort and ignite the light for others, all the while appreciating the journey. We will be a community that ensures our girls understand and explore their boundless potential.

Between now and 2024, the Boundless Potential campaign is going on the road to cities across the country. While we have already raised $31 million dollars, or 88% of our goal, we know that our ability to come together and exceed this goal truly has boundless potential!

WHY DID YOU AGREE TO CO - CHAIR THIS COMMITTEE?

I agreed to co-chair the Campaign Committee for two reasons. The first is that I believe in the valuable experience that Chatham Hall offers to girls today. The second is that I want to be part of efforts to provide for a strong financial position and state-of-theart facilities that will ensure that this School continues to offer as important an experience for today’s girls, as it did for me.

WHO AT CHATHAM HALL HAS HAD THE MOST IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE?

While I was a student at Chatham Hall, then Dean of Students Connie Gibson impacted me by her example of wisdom and grace to all, especially me! Since then, I have been impacted by Chatham alumnae of all ages and from all parts of the country with whom I have served on the Alumnae Council and the Board of Trustees. These women have reinforced my deep appreciation of Chatham by modeling characteristics of honor, strength, courage, and commitment to service, all of which are characteristics developed during my time at Chatham Hall and more important today than ever before for all in our world.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHATHAM HALL TRADITION?

I love the Chatham traditions around Christmas — decorating the Well, the nightly Well sing, and especially the Christmas pageant in St. Mary’s Chapel. They reminded me and continue to remind the Chatham Hall students, faculty, and staff about the true meaning of Christmas: the birth of Jesus.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST EXCITED ABOUT THIS CAMPAIGN BRINGING TO CHATHAM

HALL?

I am grateful that this campaign will provide ongoing financial strength through a larger endowment and the Chatham Hall Fund, updated faculty housing for the faculty that is so important to the School, and an athletic, health, and wellness facility that will build on our strong athletic and wellness programs, thereby providing an even stronger experience for the students.

DESCRIBE CHATHAM HALL IN ONE WORD: INVALUABLE!

WHY DID YOU AGREE TO CO - CHAIR THIS COMMITTEE?

Being a Trustee and being engaged during the time of the Strategic Plan, it became clear that these initiatives were imperative. I know how important Chatham Hall is in the world of girls’ education, and this campaign enables us to stay on course to be competitive in that world.

WHO AT CHATHAM HALL HAS HAD THE MOST IMPACT ON YOUR LIFE?

Initially, a combination of the faculty, administration, and classmates all had an impact on my experience at Chatham Hall. This foundation of confidence to go out into the world has continued to make an impact on my life. The chance to serve on the Alumnae Council and the Board of Trustees has broadened my network and my appreciation for the women who come through the School and the talents and gifts they share with others.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST EXCITED ABOUT THIS CAMPAIGN BRINGING TO CHATHAM HALL?

First, the launch of the entrepreneurship program which equips girls with 21st century skills, such as critical thinking and problem solving, and which will serve them well as they go forward into the world. It underscores the need for collaborative and project learning which they will do for the rest of their lives. Second, new athletic facilities! Our current facilities do not allow us to be as competitive as we can and should be.

Participation in team sports provides essential skills for communication and collaboration. Athletics and holistic wellness are essential to Living Well.

The Boundless Potential campaign enjoyed kickoff celebrations held on campus Oct. 15 including a lunch honoring faculty, a pep rally to announce the new center, and Chatham Hall’s traditional fall “Barnival." In the evening, a program in St. Mary’s Chapel was held for invited guests followed by a gala dinner.

Join Us in Choosing Chatham Hall!

With your philanthropic investment, together we will transform the community by investing in faculty housing to recruit the most talented teachers. We will launch a holistic program for health, wellness, and athletics. We will build a comprehensive facility that will allow this program to take flight. We will secure Chatham Hall’s long-term financial health with investments in endowment. And we will sustain the signature programs that set Chatham Hall apart. We are a school that empowers each girl to be her best self and to lead a life of impact. Through her passion and through her character, the world will recognize her as a Chatham Hall girl.

Since 1894, Chatham Hall has exemplified excellence in preparing young women for futures of their own creation. Let’s extend that same expectation and excitement for boundless potential in the days and years ahead. Esto perpetua!

This has been a year of adventure for me. In January I went on a Lindblad/National Geographic expedition to Antarctica, and it was amazing! Then in April and May I went with my two daughters to Barcelona, then Lisbon on our way to join a Viking cruise on the Douro River. What a beautiful area with breathtaking scenery! Then we all went to the island of Madeira for a relaxing finish to our trip. We fell in love with Madeira, and have rented an apartment there for a month next April. So blessed to be able to have done that with my

Life is good. A granddaughter married in June in a lovely ceremony in my stepdaughter’s garden. A new greatgrandson born in March. He required open-heart surgery at two weeks, but came through it fine and is utterly precious at five months. Another grandson graduated from 8th grade and is excited for high school football.

It was a thrill to travel to Italy again and found there is a Passion Play in Sordevolo, a town where all 3,500 citizens participate in August. Only every five years and the stadium holds 2,500 people. While you cannot sip the best wines of the region, it is a charming village where you might be sitting next to the mayor. Keep traveling everyone!

My husband and I spent our 20th summer in Linville, NC for about six weeks. I love playing bridge and taking long walks in these beautiful mountains. I run into more people from Chatham Hall in NC than I do in Texas!

I am lucky to live right next to the Carl Schurz Park with its Promenade along the East River which goes up to a pedestrian bridge going over to the 500-acre Randall’s Island Park. Thereby I am never biking in traffic. Still love to bike and manage to get over to Randall’s Island several times a week. Last spring went to Florence

and some hill towns in Umbria before everyone all at once decided to travel causing all those flight cancellations. Also in Florence there were a lot of visiting school children, but otherwise it wasn’t packed with tourists as pre-pandemic. Rented an apartment which had an “induction” stove; I had absolutely no idea how to use it. Did some Googling and at least figured out how to boil water. This October I’m going on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Have never been to Israel; the pilgrimage is organized by Virginia Theological Seminary and to be led by Bishop Frank Griswold so it should be both very informative and wonderfully spiritual. And just before the pilgrimage, Marion, Katrina, and I are getting together at Marion’s to acknowledge and celebrate our turning 80, which certainly feels momentous. Happy 80th birthday to everyone!

Anne Doyle Cross I seem to be getting more feisty. I would love to see everyone and share lots of stories on my porch, but nobody seems to come to Beaufort, SC. I don’t mean that, because many, many, many people do come here and I meet a lot of them because we greet everyone from our porches. I never go anywhere, but I am keeping up with lots of people thanks to texting and emailing and letters. Life is very good because I have a life which is full of people and events. I volunteer in a thrift shop twice a week. People flock in and go out with bags and bags of things. All our money goes to a

school connected to an Anglican Church or to various charities around the town. More and more, people are moving here in order to get away from wherever they were and they can do it because they can work remotely or because they are super retired and ready to rumble. At this age I never expected to have so many new friends nor did I expect to be having such a good time. All sorts of connections are made amongst us because of the lives we’ve led all over the place. We read books. We gather together and drink wine and eat really good food. Go to concerts. We go to the movies. We mutter and murmur about current events and have lots of fun correcting each other’s inaccuracies about everything imaginable.

Audrey Sawtelle Delafield

For my 80th all my kids and grandkids threw a party for me with extended family — it was great fun! Some of the kids had prepared a poem, and they presented me with a bracelet with a little charm from each one. Lots of wine, good food, and good cheer! Eighty is not so bad, although I find it harder to get out of a chair these days!

My family and I celebrated my 80th birthday in June with a bike ride along the C&O Canal in Great Falls. After the ride we picnicked by the canal. It was an absolutely beautiful day. A wonderful way to turn 80.

I had a wonderful 80th birthday on Cape Cod

with all my children, grandchildren, my sister, and cousins. In September, my sister (who turns 80 next year) and I are planning a trip to Machu Picchu, Peru’s Amazon, and the Galapagos Islands.

Eleanore Lee

The world is definitely strange these days. And it’s especially strange getting old in the time of COVID. I felt sad to lose one of my dearest friends, and a former roommate from Chatham, Sandy Maxson Shalleck ‘61. She died about a year ago. A real loss. As for me, I’m puttering along. Lucky to live near all three of my adult children. Still writing poetry and I’m hoping to get a book out of some of my previously published poems.

Frances Johnson LeeVandell

Talked to Molly Pope so we can meet outside soon. Molly’s husband, Bob, has battled an autoimmune disease for the last six years and it is attacking his eyesight. Please keep them in your prayers. She does a lot with her church (suburban Richmond, biggest Episcopal church

in the diocese). And she was looking forward to going with daughter Taylor to pick up the twins at camp in North Carolina. Also talked to Adelaide McKenzie Moss ‘60. Somehow more Australian visitors have found their way to visit Dyer and her in Abingdon in western Virginia. Then Nicky will likely come in November from his meteorological station in the Pacific, and Sasha then also. Alletta and Rob are visiting now.

Adelaide McKenzie Moss

My only comment is from a friend who calls “happy birthday” an oxymoron!

Love it. Pretty quiet these days. A big trip for us would be to go to Jonesborough, TN to hear storytellers. We love that. Still doing art with my group of artists.

Sharon Rafferty Patterson

Turning 80 has belatedly gotten my attention when I realized I’d outlived both my parents. With our ages in mind, we have decided to leave Fishers Island and move back to Dayton. A tough decision but the most sensible one. We realized that at our ages we needed to decide

Lucy Wise Iliff ‘60 and family on 80th birthday C&O Canal bike ride.

where we wanted to be and get there while we could still have a say in the matter. Our son and his family are in Dayton as are many friends so it feels in many ways like a homecoming. Current plans call for a move in October. My best to all my classmates as we reach this big milestone.

Anne Clement Haddad

In my old age, I now live with my second daughter, Jenny, and her family of five. Jenny and Josh have three, mostly grown-up boys, and Josh is the priest in charge of St. Peter and Paul’s Orthodox Church in Meriden, CT. We have a little piece of heaven in rural Durham, CT which we enjoy and love. Spent five years being the principal caregiver for my 95-year-old mother, Chatham Hall 1943 alumna, and then my 87-year-old husband Charles. Over the past year, I have been in a self-maintenance mode paying attention to my various old-age ailments that had been basically neglected while I was caregiving. At the moment, I am convalescing from a hip replacement surgery that hopefully, once I have recovered, will restore a pretty good quality of life for me in the coming 15 years. Looking forward to all that comes with that.

Mary Michael Leslie Greyson and I took another trip to the Amazon and the Galapagos. It was a very interesting trip to both areas. Stayed in a jungle lodge for three days

before the Galapagos. The wildlife was up to expectation.

Virginia Willson Welch Spending two months in Rinon, a great cure for New England winters.

Josephine Bayard

I am very grateful to live in Florida, especially during the pandemic. I enjoy many community involvements and travel which recently included a trip on the Sea Cloud along the coast of Spain and a few days in Paris. I would welcome a visit from classmates at such time as you visit Florida.

1966

Martha Walton Coonley Miffy Walton Coonley recently moved from Philadelphia to Houston near her daughter and grandchildren. She had spent years restoring historic buildings in the Society Hill district of Philadelphia and is now using those same skills to restore her new house in The Heights area of Houston.

Hilary Drorbaugh-Propst

Hilary Drorbaug-Propst has been using her skills as a master naturalist this summer to measure and study water quality in her area of VA, with the goal of beneficial management of natural resources and natural areas.

Muffin Dalton Grant Muffin is on her second line of treatment for metastatic breast cancer and is happily resigned to

being a lady of leisure for the time being. The meds take their toll but she is so grateful to be surrounded by wonderful friends and family. And she thoroughly enjoys Zooming with other ‘66ers!

from cataract surgery in the coming months. Oh, to be able to see clearly again!

Florence Farwell Schmidt

Rencie Farwell Schmidt checked in somewhere between San Francisco and Muir Woods on the Sausalito/Mill Valley side where she and Peter were enjoying a walk amongst the giant Sequoias.

Mary Shallenberger

Mary Shallenberger had a great time on a 10-day pack trip into the Sierras with a group of women friends and family. As she said, she was “still cleaning the dirt out of my fingernails!”

Suzanne Shaw Spradling

Sue Shaw Spradling is recovering from a fractured kneecap (beware uneven pavement!) and hopes/plans to be back on the croquet circuit by Labor Day.

Constance Flint West

Lynn Kitson Williams

Lynn Kitson Williams writes that she had a very busy summer workwise, but is now looking forward to a trip to Lubec, ME for the SummerKeys cello workshop. Vacation and the joy of music this summer - finally!

Sarah Yardley

Sarah and Jane Yardley drove through campus on their way to Maine. They loved reminiscing on campus and hope to be back for Reunion.

1968

Lucy Williams Maish

What a nice change from the restrictions of COVID-19. I have enjoyed seeing fellow alums: Muffy Dent Stuart ‘68, Trina Robinson Secor ‘68, and Julie Johnson ‘69 over the last months! I just returned from a fun family trip with my daughter, Cary Maish Brodie ‘97 to northern Indiana.

Laurie Nussdorfer

After a long COVID gap, it was wonderful to spend a weekend at the beautiful farm in Wisconsin where Corinne Rafferty ‘68 lives with her husband Dale Wiehoff. They are super hosts!

Muffy Dent Stuart

2022 is bringing us out of the house but masked

in several places. Happy to be traveling a bit and enjoying family time. Spent Easter in Greensboro, NC with all the grands and it was terrific! March took us to a family wedding in Charleston, SC and at the end of July I traveled to CA to celebrate grandson Teddy’s 13th birthday almost a year later. Took Teddy and my son Harrison to Newport Beach from which we traveled to visit presidential libraries, LA, many In N Out Burger locations, and beached it as well. Fun trip and happy to be out. Lucy Maish ‘68 came to Lexington for 4th of July weekend and we had fun despite the heat! Lots of laughs and adventures. Looking forward to Class of ‘68 having 55th reunion in Spring ‘23. Will be fun to catch up and enjoy time together!

Elizabeth Hasert

Well, after unsuccessful three-year stint in rural Pennsylvania, moved back to beautiful PNW last summer where 3/4 of my kids now live. The boys are near Portland, OR, and I moved to Edgewood, WA, between Tacoma and Seattle, six blocks from youngest daughter and her fiancè. Bought a house on a small lake and the waterfowl are very fun to watch! Not only do we have multiple species of ducks, the ubiquitous Canada geese (who are actually quite nice in their natural habitat), but I’ve discovered diving ducks and grebes, mergansers, coots, scaups, scoters, and our lone, aloof great blue heron. Youngest daughter preparing to marry in May of next year (wish me luck altering her wedding dress!), and eldest son finally proposed to his wonderful girlfriend of four years and they’re planning their wedding for August of next year. (Thought that was a respectful wait after wedding #1, lol). Both future kids-in-law are very good people from nice families. Canceled my 70th birthday due to COVID so I’m still 69

until restaurants are fully open, no one is sick, and someone (e.g. my kidswho have been informed!) gives me a BIG party (it’s a big birthday!). Grudgingly getting used to my disintegrating body, had successful reconstructive surgery on right arthritic hand last January. Saving up for hips. Told my knees to keep quiet! My best to all of you!

Walker Johnson Jones

Walker Jones was joined by eight members of the class of 1970 for a minireunion in Washington, D.C.

1971 Mary Kay Karzas

Julie Cleveland

Diana Simonds ‘72, Julie Cleveland ‘72, and Marion Dolly Harris ‘72 in South China, Maine. Long story on why we met up there but nice to continue our 50th reunion. Happy to be back in touch!

1973 Virginia Cates Bowie

Mae Mae Andrews

Cook and her husband Ed invited us to Wild Dunes, SC. We thought a perfect place to take a Chatham Hall pic was at the Obstinate Daughter restaurant. Perhaps a few of us have been so titled! In picture, Clyde Bowie, Jr. (I met him on blind date one dance weekend at Chatham Hall - he went to Asheville School), Ginny Cates Bowie, Mae Mae Andrews Cook ’73, and Ed Cook (his grandmother went to Chatham Hall in the early 1900s and found out this weekend Lee Carr, brother to Julia Carr Day, Class of 1973, was in Ed’s cabin at Camp Sea Gull). Class of 1973 - put on your calendars, our 50th Reunion is May 5-7, 2023 - Ginny Speed has already let me know she is coming!

Ann Mactaggart PleydellBouverie

James and I have been busy rebuilding after the ravages of Hurricane Dorian (Sept. 1, 2019). I am now running and

cooking for the museum and coffee shop here on the island which takes up most of my day and, sadly, keeps me out of the garden. If anyone is in the Abacos, please stop by Man-O-War Cay and say hello!

I have just returned from several weeks in South Africa and it was a trip of a lifetime!

Sarah

Collie

Last spring, I completed a marathon sporting a Chatham Hall “Turtle Strong” t-shirt. While my fourth marathon, it’s been 18 years since my last one and I now have 20 screws and three plates in my ankle from an accident in 2012. So, this was all about running to finish, not race. The shirt sums up my approach - turtle slow and Turtle Strong!

Melinda Fera Hain

My husband, Johnny, and I are moving from Atlanta to St. Simons Island where I will continue selling real estate for Keller Williams Golden Isles. Please come visit! I will be neighbors with my Chatham Hall roommate, Jennifer Taylor Farish. Chatham gals reunited!

Terri Coleman Martinez

I had the pleasure of sharing a meal with Elizabeth Mullen recently after not having seen each other for more than 37 years. We are Facebook friends and she posted that

In April, Susan Gillings Gross ‘98, Alison Taylor Coward ‘98, and Lori Palmore Heath reunited in Chapel Hill for a celebration of life in honor of Susan’s late mother, Joan Gillings.

2002 Danielle Dillon Munkelt

In May, Danni Dillon Munkelt ‘02 met up with Nina Cloeren Weinz ‘03 in Köln, Germany. The two had a great time catching up. As they reminisced, it felt like just yesterday rather than 20 years ago that they were having a great time at Chatham Hall. Today, Nina is a wife, mom, and an emergency surgeon. She continues to foster her love of horses as she did at Chatham Hall.

Kimberly Daniels Taws

Kenzie Logan Graffeo, Michelle Thomas Supko, and Adair Hendrickson Ravencraft came to Raleigh to join me in saying goodbye to my grandfather who died on June 30. We did not get a picture but it was so wonderful to have my Chatham girls with me on a sad day!

This summer has been a big summer for me. I completed law school at DePaul University, was awarded with the Benjamin Hooks Award for Public Service, and nominated for the Katherine Wiseman Leadership Award.

of working for Vail Resorts in my hometown, I made the decision to go back to school! In December 2021, I graduated from the Gemological Institute of America with my graduate gemologists degree, to pair with the graduate jeweler degree I received in 2015. In January I moved back to Boston, where I attended college, with the hope of jumpstarting a career in the jewelry industry. While that hasn’t gone exactly to plan I am excited to be

I got married to my partner Will Gamrat in Pittsburgh on June 4, 2022.

alive over so many years! Anne Meuche ‘15 and I have been able to visit each other in Milan, Italy and Munich, Germany multiple times over the past year(s). We are both excited for our next adventures in internships in Mexico and Tanzania during the fall and winter of 2022-2023.

Chatham Hall Friends,

One of the favorite aspects of my job is the ability to see our friends in their home communities. The 2021-2022 school year was a bit of a tease as far as travel goes. Fall travel started quickly with a gathering in New York and was paused shortly thereafter when a new variant of COVID-19 appeared, though we were able to host events in California in early spring. We are always delighted to see friend groups gather together and to read Class Notes to hear about your lives. Your life journeys, your friendships forged at Chatham Hall, and how your relationships with the School evolve over time is heartwarming to see.

Whether they realize it or not, our students are just beginning their Chatham Hall journeys. The seniors will begin to understand how their relationships with Chatham Hall are dynamic. How they frame the benefits derived from their student experience will deepen as they navigate the opportunities and challenges that life presents. Throughout, they are supported by their Chatham Hall community.

I thank you for including Chatham Hall among your philanthropic interests because you are impacting these students and their experiences

here both in and out of the classroom. The pages that follow are presented as a report on giving, yet they are so much more than that. Read these pages with interest to see the deep loyalty to Chatham Hall demonstrated by, for example, members of the Oak Circle who are recognized for their consistent giving. Donors to Chatham Hall support the experience for today’s students and those into the future.

By now, you have no doubt learned about Boundless Potential: The Campaign for Chatham Hall. This is an effort to fund the most ambitious and visionary projects outlined in the School’s Strategic Plan. These initiatives will transform the campus footprint, and thus student and faculty experiences. I invite you to join us as we seek to exceed all expectations with the boundless potential that becomes possible with your partnership and generosity.

Thank you for choosing Chatham Hall!

Esto Perpetua, Christine Cutright Knight P’19 Chief Advancement Officer

Dearest

We extend heartfelt thanks to our alumnae, families, and friends who comprise our philanthropic donor base. Our Chatham Hall community is a generous community eager to support the work of our faculty and the overall student experience through your support for the Chatham Hall Fund and special projects. In addition, your gifts for capital projects enable the School to address important facility needs. In 2021-2022, the stables received a new roof and barn doors for the horse stalls. Further, significant improvements to faculty houses are now underway because of the generosity of our friends who have pledged their support for this multi-year initiative. Thank you.

Capital, Endowment, & Special Gifts

We recognize and thank the donors who have made significant commitments to endowment and special programs, facilities and grounds, and support for students and faculty. Inspired by our Strategic Plan, these gifts enrich the community experience for everyone.

donations given on an annual basis are at the very core of our School’s success because they support every aspect of the School. They give access through financial support, underpin the academic and student life experiences, aid our athletics and arts programs, and impact the care and keeping of our campus and buildings. It’s very exciting that this fund now has an elevated visual identity to match its importance within our community and underscores that it supports every area of Chatham Hall.”

THEN & NOW: Starting with humble beginnings as a dairy farm, Chatham Hall’s campus has continued to grow and change in its 129-year history. The top photo by Frank Turgeon Jr. features the back of campus in 1931, while the bottom showcases campus in 2022. Changes include expanded Riding facilities and the addition of several buildings such as the Virginia Holt Building, St. Mary’s Chapel, Shaw Tech, and faculty houses.
