Class Note 1994
Do any of you remember Susie Lee’s singing debut during freshman trip at Moosilauke? I wasn’t there, but I heard she stood on a table and sang the “I like the Sprite in you” song at the top of her lungs and was forever known (well, for at least freshman year) as “the Sprite girl.” I hope memories will be shorter lived regarding the summer day camp debut of my 2-year-old son Peter, who also made quite an impression on the first day when he decided to strip down and streak the whole camp. Sigh. This event was foreshadowed by my husband Andrew Hyman’s joke at our recent 16th-year reunion; upon leaving the kids’ event at Leverone Field House he told our son, “Come on, this may be your only chance to rush the field.” We can only hope he’ll have outgrown his penchant for streaking by college.
We had a great time returning to campus at reunion, which took place during an idyllically beautiful New Hampshire summer weekend. Things had certainly changed for us, however, from when we were last there, as we’re now traveling with 2- and 4-year-old boys. Instead of returning to the dorms, we opted to bunk with Sari Cohen and Adam Pollak, who live(d) in nearby Warner, New Hampshire. As it turns out, it’s a good thing we finally made the trek up to see their beautiful New Hampshire home, as by the time you read this they will have relocated to Sari’s hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There Adam will be working as a supply chain manager for Pittsburgh-based grocery chain Giant Eagle. Our boys had a great time playing with their daughter Geri (4) and son Ezra (2) and we had a wonderful time catching up and enjoying some wonderful home-cooked meals and look forward to visiting them next time in Pennsylvania.
We didn’t actually get to spend too much time at the campus or the reunion, but I did run into Alissa Peck, Liz (Berger) Friedman, Rebecca Shaewitz Nathanson and Jen Azapian, who had flown in from France, where she is attending business school, in front of the Hanover Inn. Then we headed straight for the kid-friendly activities, where I had a nice chat with Ann Koppel and Erin (Green) Comite and also saw Mike Schlenker and Greg Irwin, who were both there with their wives and active little boys.
In other class business news, I have been told that we are in need of a class webmaster. The company that hosts our webpage has a very easy-to-use interface that is only slightly more complicated than sending e-mail. So even if you’re no computer expert, serving as our class webmaster would be a great and easy way to get involved in our class leadership. Please let me know if you’re interested.
Other exciting news from June includes this juicy tidbit. A.J. Goldman did his first solo sail across the Pacific Ocean in the 2010 SSS TransPacific Yacht Race in a 36-foot sailboat, Second Verse. For more information, or to see photos of A.J.’s journey, visit http:// mac247waikiki.com/sailing.
Hope everyone has had a great summer and is still enjoying the last bits of it. And if you have an update on Susie Lee, please write; I’d love to hear what she’s been up to.
