Open Fields School

Official invitations to the 35th reunion (June 3, 2007) are going out this week!

Whether or not you’re coming, we’d love it if you’d drop us a line, either by e-mail (open.fields.school@valley.net) or a by adding comment on this blog. Let us know where you are and what you’ve been up to. If you have pictures or memories you’d like to share, e-mail those to us, too, and we can post them here or on the web site.

And, if you are coming to the reunion (and we certainly hope you are!), let us know that, too. We’ll start putting together a list of who’s coming so you can see which of your favorite teachers and old pals will be attending. See the list of teachers who will be there on the sidebar —>

In a recent comment, Erica Layton pointed out that there’s now an Open Fields Alums facebook group: another venue for connecting with old OFS friends and digging up some old stories.

Thanks, Erica!

Former OFS teacher (and continuing OFS supporter) Neal Meglathery posted some questions as a comment to an earlier entry. We’re posting them here to make it easier for you to see them and respond.

Any former students of Neal out there?? Post your answers to his questions here as comments!

“So, this is a quiz for my former students:

How do you look for and find the weak spot in the ice on the Beaver Pond?

Where did you leave that organic science experiment?

The recipe for gack?

Fill in the blanks: F_ _ M A N !!!!!! dada-dada-_ _ _ _-dada…

Duck, duck, _ _ _ _ _.

Where’s the sledding hill?

Do you really need to know anything else?

Were you one of the students who made this film? If so, tell us about it! What part did you play? What do you remember about the experience?

Hello Open Fields friends!

We started this blog so we could communicate with you about the school. We’ll update it to tell you about upcoming events, and we’ll be using it to talk with former students and teachers about their experiences at Open Fields School.

With our 35th Reunion just around the corner (June 2 - 3, 2007), we want to hear from you! If you were a former student or teacher (or a parent of a former student), write a comment to let us know where you are and what you’re up to these days.

Stay tuned for more about the reunion…
