Greenport News: Clippers’ alumni field hockey game Oct. 3
Where the heck did September go? It seems like just yesterday that I was saying goodbye to August.
If you’re reading this on Thursday and you’ve got errands to do for the weekend, put the paper down and go do them now. Maritime weekend is upon us and you all know what kind of craziness that brings.
In Cupid’s circle, Sept. 19 must be a very special day. In recent memory I can’t recall four couples I know getting married on the same day. In New York, Brooke Qualey became Mrs. Bill Kart. In Maryland, Meg Zlockie said “I do” to Bob Copas. Farther down the road, in Virginia, Mary Allia Turner was the bride of Jesse Rose, and, last but not least, Dylan Drobet, daughter of Carolyn Burke, married Barrett Gamez. I wish all four couples a lifetime of happiness together.
Attention former GHS field hockey players: The Clippers’ alumni field hockey game is slated for Saturday, Oct. 3, at 10 a.m. Players are always needed and if you can’t participate, at least come out and support them. Anyone interested in playing should contact Heidi Bailey on Facebook.
With new principals come new ideas. This morning, Sept. 24, Greenport secondary principal Gary Kalish will hold a roundtable in the high school library. The monthly gatherings are designed to give parents an opportunity to speak informally with administrators. Topics may include, but are not limited to, AP courses, field trips, assessments, co-curricular activities and more. Please join in and bring your thoughts and ideas!
St. Agnes Faith Formation Classes resume the week of Sept. 28 and children must be re-registered by that date. Levels 1-5 meet Tuesday afternoons, 3-4:15 p.m., and levels 6-8 meet Wednesday evenings, 6:45-8 p.m. Registration forms are available on the parish website and in the front foyer at the church. Children who are not registered will not be allowed to walk from Greenport School Tuesday afternoons.
Belated birthday wishes go out to Susan DeDuck, who celebrated her special day Sept. 10.
