More Than 3 Ds at Dellwood<br />
P eeringoutmywindowonthiswintryday,watching<br />
yet another snowfall blanket my yard with white<br />
crystals, I know I can’t be the only one on the block<br />
who’s looking forward to warm weather. As much as I<br />
love winter – snowmobiling, skating, icefishing, shoveling<br />
[?], slipping [?], freezing [?] – this year I am<br />
anticipating April with great eagerness, especially<br />
Saturday, April 2! That is when the <strong>Foundation</strong> will<br />
host a delectably fun-filled significant occasion. Our<br />
Dine, Donate…and Dance! event at Dellwood Hills<br />
Golf Club will be . . .<br />
j Delectable, as Dellwood’s distinguishedchefcreatesaculinarymasterpiece.<br />
It will also be . . .<br />
j Fun-filled, with John Evans and<br />
Dan Perry entertaining us with music<br />
Jenny Nadeau<br />
By JENNY NADEAU<br />
WBLAEF Vice President, Community Relations<br />
from all generations, including just the<br />
right tunesforthose wanting to cutthe<br />
rug or bust a move! And, most of all, it will be . . .<br />
j Significant, as our first fundraiser designated<br />
exclusively for our Legacy Endowment.<br />
As you may already know, the Legacy Endowment<br />
was established to support initiatives that foster a<br />
commitment to excellence in our schools. The endowmentwillenhancecurricularenrichment,thefinearts,<br />
technology, and student support. To this end, the<br />
WBLAEF Board of Directors has pledged to raise<br />
$700,000 by 2014. Our dream is that Dine, Donate…<br />
and Dance! will bring us closer to our goal, while educating<br />
our guests about who we are, what we do, and<br />
how they can partner with us in our legacy.<br />
With any luck, in two months blades of grass will be<br />
emerging where mountains of snow now linger, and<br />
the WBLAEF will be celebrating a successful fundraising<br />
event with countless friends of the <strong>Foundation</strong>.<br />
Tickets may be obtained at the <strong>Foundation</strong> office or<br />
from members of the WBLAEF Board of Directors.<br />

When Norman Pippin<br />
died in 2005, he was extolled<br />
as a WBL schools’<br />
principal with “infectious<br />
good humor, fairness,<br />
[and for] his<br />
happy whistle in<br />
the hallways [so]<br />
typical of his out-<br />
look on life.”<br />

It’s Official: All-School Reunion,<br />
Homecoming Both on Sept. 30<br />
In sync with 2002’s first<br />
All-School Reunion, the<br />
<strong>2011</strong> version will coincide<br />
with <strong>White</strong> <strong>Bear</strong> <strong>Lake</strong><br />
<strong>Area</strong> High School’s<br />
Homecoming.<br />
The date is Friday, Sept.<br />
30, as the festivities return<br />
to the <strong>White</strong> <strong>Bear</strong><br />
<strong>Lake</strong> Armory on Fourth<br />
St. at Cook Ave. Some<br />
1,100 people packed the<br />
place 11 years ago, many<br />
of them moving out front<br />
to watch the Homecoming<br />
parade pass by.<br />
The goal this year is to<br />
match—or surpass?—the<br />
record set in 2002.<br />
Again,memorabiliawill<br />
abound, available senior<br />
portraits of all alumni<br />
(from the 1920s onward)<br />
will be displayed, souvenirs<br />
will be purchasable,<br />
and decorations will remind<br />
everybody of the<br />
Blue and Gold and the<br />
Orange and Black.<br />
All this will begin at 1<br />
p.m., and last beyond the<br />
<strong>Bear</strong>s’Homecomingfootball<br />
game against the<br />
WoodburyRoyals,scheduled<br />
for 7 p.m. at South<br />
Campus.<br />
At some point during<br />
the afternoon, a short<br />
program will include the<br />
recognition of a new class<br />
of Wall of Fame alumni<br />
(see separate story).<br />
Most exciting of all—for<br />
thosewhohaveorganized<br />
the three prior All-School<br />
Reunions (2002, 2005,<br />
Carol McFarlane<br />
CO-CHAIRS. Deb Acheson<br />
Hoff ’71 and Jim Berry ’72<br />
2008)—is that younger<br />
alumni are taking charge,<br />
led by co-chairs Deb<br />
AchesonHoff ’71andJim<br />
Berry ’72.<br />
At a Feb. 7 planning<br />
session, many alumni<br />
assumed many tasks,<br />
pleasing the co-chairs no<br />
end.<br />
The idea was broached<br />
to continue the party on<br />
Saturday morning—with<br />
an alumni breakfast or<br />
brunch, in addition to the<br />
Alumni CarShowalready<br />
scheduled (see story below).<br />
No breakfast decision<br />
was made, but the<br />
topic is sure to surface at<br />
the next meeting—6:30<br />
p.m. Monday, March 14,<br />
at the Armory. And there<br />
is always room for more<br />
volunteers.<br />
