From Chris Mosca: "I am currently serving in my second year as principal of John Stark Regional High School in Weare, NH. Stark has an enrollment of approximately 775 students, grades 9- 12. Perhaps the most fun I'm having on the job is playing the role of Principal Harry Clark in the upcoming spring production of Footloose! I am also serving in my 4th year as a commissioner for the New England Association of Public Secondary Schools. My wife, Gina, (Montini) is an independent clinical social worker and serves numerous clients throughout Maine. O ldest children Carlene (16) and Raymond (15) attend St. Dominic's Academy in Auburn, ME. Carlene is an accomplished guitarist and sings each week for the school's music ministry Raymond is a passionate baseball player and completed a successful season in the state-wide Babe Ruth All Star Tournament. My 'Little Pair' Christiana (u) and 'Sweet' Caroline (9) enjoy dance, basketball, and theater! Has it really been 33 years since graduation? I wish my best to all and would be glad to hear from fellow '79 Bants!" From Lynn Butterfield Wong: "Ed and l are still in Cal ifornia celebrating 31 years married this June. Our youngest, twins Greg and Amanda, are thriving in their sophomore years at UCLA and William Jessup University, respectively. They just turned 20 so no more teens in our family! Our oldest, Billy, turned 25 and lives and works about an hour from us near San Francisco. I just celebrated a year back in the job force working at our church as administrative assistant to the head pastor on a parr-time basis while still marketing whole food nutrition products (that have kept me going for the last decade) . Love to read what is going on with other classmates. If you are on the West Coast, give a shout. Blessings, Lynn (408) 710-4229." From Kent Reilly: "On the evening of January 28, I co-hosted the annual Soccer Team Senior Night, along witl1 Coach Mike Pilger. My son Connor ' 12 has been captain for two years. and led the team to the second round of the NCAA tournament this year. It was a bittersweet night for all the seniors and the ir parents, as most of us were saying goodbye to a sport that has filled so many hours (and weekends) over the previous 17 years! With many of the boys' own families not being able to attend games regularly, it has been my pleasure to play the role of ' team Dad.' "It was an especially festive event, with the coach honoring each of his seve n seniors, as well as announcing the major awards. It has been a pleasure to be associated with Coach Pilger and this program for the last four years and I look forward to continuing my support." From Charlotte Miller McCarthy: "I have worked for years in PR and marketing but a few years ago I came up with the idea of starting my own company- The Marathon Gift Collection. I starred rw1ning marathons in 1996

and to date have run 19 marathons and over 30 half marathons. In 2007, after completing the New York City Marathon for the 2nd time, I decided to design and selJ marathon - related gift products. My company is an official licensee of the Boston Athletic Association (that runs the Boston Marathon, the oldest and most prestigious marathon in the United States) and of the Marine Corps Marathon.

I am living in Riverside, CT. and working as director of corporate relations at Memorial Sloan- Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. This is a relatively new job (two years) and a total career switch after 26 years in publishing at TIME Inc. I've found the skills are definitely transferable and it is a wonderful place to work. I am married and have one son, Reilly, who is in 9th grade at Greens Farms Academy and hopefully will head to Trinity to have the same great experience I did." Tick l-louk reports, "We're still enjoying living in Los Gatos, CA. and working in Silicon Valley (me in analog semiconductor engineering at Linear Technology and my wife in charter schools operations) . One more semester and we'll be empty-nesters: We have a son who is a sophomore at SF State and a daughter who is a senior in HS. Staying busy cycling. I keep in touch with Professor Ahlgren in the Engineering Department from time to time ." Wendy Melville Mains says: "I married a great guy; Wayne, 23 years ago and to have two daugh ters, Katherine (2o) and Olivia (17) , and spend my time fundraising for several non -profits and working with Wayne in our financial services business.

I live outside of Sacramento and have a guest room if anyone wants to tour Northern California." Scott Growney says, "Wish I could have made it to our 30th, but Reunion Weekend conflicted with a !10 tean1 boys' lacrosse tournament l have been running for about 10 years outside of Philly. I also run a 185 team tournament in July in Bucks County, PA, with a few friends , including the

head coach at Princeton, so my summers have gotten busy as these events have grown. I run a golf outing for the Philadelphia Lacrosse Association every year and have raised over $325K over the last 20 years to promote the game in Philly. I am also getting involved nationally, working on a few U.S. lacrosse board committees; I used to be on the International Lacrosse Committee and was involved with the U.S. Team for a number of years. The game has the ability to change (and save) lives, so it's somewhere I can make a difference. I got inducted in the US Lacrosse Hall of Fame (Eastern Pennsylvania Chapter) in 2005. My wife McCall and I have a son at Trinity (Chase '14) who plays on the lacrosse team and another son, a junior at Williams, who plays there, so they will square off against each other on March 17. My 13-year-old daughter is the real athlete in the family!" Tucker Ellinghaus l-lackett says, "After volunteering for various environmental causes subsequent to the demise of Lehman Brothers (my employer till it filed Chapter II at the height of the 2008 financial crises) , I returned to work during the spring of 20II for the Royal Bank of Scotland at its U.S. headquarters in Stamford, CT. I an1 a credit officer in the energy group there, a variant on a position I have held at various institutions since the late 8os-yikes! We also moved to Stamford, CT. this fall (from nearby Greenwich). And finally, also this fall we enrolled the children (Alexander, age II, and Elizabeth, age 6) at a private school- New Canaan Country Schoolwhich they love. As far as news from other Trinity alums, my twin brother Brison (also '81) and his wife, Fiona, have a son, Gregory; who turns oneyear-old this month. They live in La Jolla, CA. where Brison works for a solar power developer." It was nice to hear from Laura Roulet directly; having heard about her circuitously from Barry Berquist: "I have been working as an independent curator/ writer/ art historian in the Washington, DC, area for about 15 years. This spring I was chosen as one of five international curators for a citywide public art project called 5 X 5." Jim Shapiro writes: "I'm in the middle of an intense judicial campaign against another sitting judge in order to keep my judgeship. Election Day is Tuesday, March 20. I just got a rare Highly ~alified rating from the C hicago Bar Association, which will hopefully lead to an endorsement by the Chicago Tn'bune. My son, Kevin, is a senior at the University of Pennsylvania, and is looking to graduate summa cum laude in May. Daughter Allison is a freshman at University of Missouri ('Mizzou') ." Dave Giblin, general manager of the Boston Marriott, sent an update: "I have been elected chairman of the Board of Directors for the Greater Boston Convention and Visitors Bureau. The Boston area welcomes over 21 million visitors annually and I look forward to working with the team to bring even more visitors in the future. I leave shortly for a Trade Mission in Japan. I still live in Westborough, MA, have a daughter at ' Lesley University in Cambridge and anomer off to BuckneLl in the fall. Maybe my 12-year-old son will
