Class Note 2005

Issue

Nov - Dec 2013

Hello, class of 2005. Fall is finally upon us, bringing with it great memories of Homecoming bonfires, Dartmouth football games and the brilliant colors of Hanover leaves. I hope you and yours enjoy many similarly beautiful and enjoyable moments this season. 


We would first like to correct an error from the most recent Class Notes column. Class of ’05s Alexis Ettinger and Jonathan Urban got engaged in March. Classmate Jason Edgar got engaged to Julia Baxter ’06 in May. Congratulations to both Dartmouth couples and best wishes for your upcoming weddings!


Congratulations also to Haley (Peckett) Woodward, who married Greg Woodward (Columbia ’05) on June 23. Haley wrote, “We got married in a beautiful outdoor ceremony at a summer camp outside of Boston. We were honored to have a fabulous Dartmouth crowd in attendance, including Elana Bannerman, Lindsey Beck, Katie Bell Barnett, Claire Cage, Kim Pelak and my uncle Jon Ingersoll ’67. The Dartmouth Ultimate ’05s also traveled from near and (very) far, leading songs around the campfire, jumping in the lake before the ceremony and joining Greg and me in the ‘Salty Dog Rag!’ ”


In baby news Lexie (Otto) Morrison and her husband, Michael, welcomed daughter Maeve in July. Their 19-month-old son Luke is very excited to be a big brother. Congratulations, Lexie and family!


Erin Bingham is currently working on her bachelor of science in nursing at Penn State University. She wrote, “I have cultivated my interest in health through getting certified as a yoga instructor, working on various farms around the United States and becoming a certified health counselor. I hope to bring more holistic and homeopathic practices into the traditional healthcare setting.”


We received word that Dartmouth hockey star Lee Stempniak was featured in the August issue of New York Hockey Journal. The article praises Lee for his athletic ability as well as his intellect. Lee is in year two of a $5-million deal with the Calgary Flames, and he and wife Lindsay (Moyer) Stempniak have recently found a new home in Calgary.

Meg Thering wrote, “I’m continuing on my quest to visit all of the national parks with help from my Dartmouth friends. In February Ames O’Neill and I went to Mammoth Caves National Park. In April Kelly Morr and I went to Petrified Forest National Park and Sequoia National Park.” 


Andrew Goldstein was highlighted in the Windy City Times this July as a member of the inaugural class of inductees for the National Gay & Lesbian Sports Hall of Fame. He is an anti-bullying advocate who speaks to high school students regularly and, along with his husband Jamie T. Duneier, Andrew published his first book, Ten Ways to Rescue Your Soul, in May. Congratulations, Andrew! Find the article at www.windycitymediagroup.com/lgbt/Andrew-Goldstein-shines-on-off-lacross….
