Ground Breaking
10/15/2001

Today was loaded with exciting developments and activities. First, Matapat--a trio of Quebecoise--dominated this morning's assembly with foot-stomping rhythms, dance, and incomprehensible lyrics.

That accomplished, we dashed to our mailboxes to find the new facebooks had arrived. For some reason, we take returning students' photos in May, so there is great levity on campus as vain teens screen obsolete images.

Then it was time to really get down to business: the ground-breaking ceremony for a new $280,000 day care facility across from the football field where Bravo the burro used to live. First, adorable tikes sang a song about child labor practices.

Then they got to work. After the photo op, they continued digging despite a steady drizzle....eager, it seemed, to see the project to completion.

Elliot can juggle apples sitting on Dave's shoulders riding that little bike.
Nancy and Laurie were mortified that they had dressed in black slacks with horizontal black-and-gold striped tops with black low heels. How embarrassing!
At first, the ground-breaking was a little awkward...
Soon, however, the dirt was really flying from plastic shovels and trowels.
