Homecoming 2002 Rocks!

It had all the makings of a perfect day; great friends, great food and great music. Over 100 alumni/ae, faculty/staff and former faculty/staff gathered for Homecoming 2002 on April 6, 2002. The event began at the Schermerhorn Meeting House with a touching tribute to the Knies Family. Jack Ramey, Former Faculty, kicked-off the tribute with a personalized history of the family. Don Knies compelled us with his walk down memory lane with many kind works and recollections of former students. Jennifer Knies made us cry with her emotion-filled remembrances. Erica Knies ’99 was charming as designated family photographer. Ken Knies ’96 was unable to join us as he is attending the University of Sussex in England, but sent his heart-felt best wishes.

Then it was over to the Pearl Street lower-gym for food, fun and music. Many alums were thrilled to visit with their favorite former teacher Martin Norregaard. We even had a sentimental visit from former Head of School Stuart Smith, who was reunited with his former assistant Dorothea Andersen. Mechele Plotkin Flaum ’68 introduced Michael Nill as Head of School, with the opportunity for discussion regarding the future of BFS. Several alums took this opportunity to recount what BFS means to them.

Thanks to Jesse Soll ’95, the day’s event culminated in a lively but friendly alumni/ae basketball game. Players ranged from Norman Kurland ’62 to Jasmin Singleton ’02. Special thanks to Sidney Bridges, Dean of the Upper School, for refereeing. Check out the photos of all of the great players! The Class of ’62 snuck out early for their class party at Gage & Tollner. Photos of their event will be posted shortly.
