Karen Liot Hill, guest secretary, takes over this issue’s column.
The fun part of living in the Upper Valley is always feeling at least abit connected to the College, from football and hockey games to the Homecoming bonfire and alumni parade. You should come back for Homecoming this year—and bring partners and kids! It’s a good time.
The fun part of doing Class Notes is reconnecting with people from our college days. This edition includes updates from some of our classmates I had the pleasure of hearing from.
Sebastian Barreveld sent in this wonderful report about Ned Dybvig’s wedding, which saw many classmates in attendance and was surely a fabulous party. “Antje (Herlyn) Barreveld and I were fortunate to attend the very regal wedding ofNed Dybvig and Georgina Rawkins at the Royal Hospital Chelsea, London, on November 20, 2021. It was great to spend time with old Dartmouth friends including Errik Anderson, Lacary Sharpe, Katherine Kim, Lilly Wollman, Caroline Hribar, Ryan Jones, Brent Edwards, Jake Elberg, Carolyn (Cummins) Addison, Ram Murali ’99, and Mike Holick ’01. We wish them the best—and many more travels together.
“Keeping the hill winds in her breath, Antje has been running, biking, and skiing around the Northeast, recently completing the Boston Marathon and the Mount Washington Inferno Pentathlon. Herfamilyis proud ofher but wishes that she would find a less time-consuming hobby!
“We’re excited for Chuck Horrell and Susan (Gordon) Horrell ’06 and their impending move to Lyme, New Hampshire, with their kiddos to, in Chuck’s words, ‘Live free or die.’ ”
I know that many of us can also relate to this being a very busy season of our lives, as Anita Hamalainen reports: “Scott Snyder and I have an architectural and interior design practice in the Upper Valley. Additionally, Scott teaches engineering at Thayer and I work at the VA Medical Center as an interior designer. We have four kids: Jamie is 14, Kai and Leo are 11, and Isa is 5. Between work, Scouts, piano lessons, baseball, and musical rehearsals, we haven’t had a free moment in 14 years.”
From across the “girdled earth,” Andre Bishay sends in this update from Switzerland: “My wife, Valentina, and I moved from New York to Zug, Switzerland, two years ago. Our 3-year-old son Arik already prefers Swiss-German to English and our daughter, Maya, just turned 1. If classmates are in the area (we are 20 minutes from Zurich by train) feel free to get in touch.”
Tom Kanter has been attending the Harvard program for leadership development. Tom and Erin (Chisholm) Kanter live in New Canaan, Connecticut, with their two daughters, Lillian and Vivian. (Shout out to freshman-year fourth-floor French. Woot, woot!)
And right here in Hanover some of our classmates are getting together to relive their college years! From Lindsay Bowen Coe: “Our class field hockey players—Kristen Leadbeater Paasch, Kristen Scopaz, Lauren Scopaz, Rebecca Sangster and myself—will play together at the Dartmouth field hockey reunion this April. We are pumped to play together again after 21-plus years and celebrate 50 years of women’s athletics at Dartmouth. Up, up, Big Green!”
Thank you to all the classmates who sent in updates. It is so fun to share in some of the milestones and moments of life through the years. Please send in any updates to dartmouth2000 secretary@gmail.com. And I look forward to seeing many of you in person at our 25th reunion in 2025, if not before.
