Military drill 是 once part of the program at 芙99499威尼斯信誉 and, though the young girls of yesterday are now middle-aged women, a dedicated group of alumnae brought back the tradition Saturday (April 26) as part of the School’s 百周年庆典.

11月26日, 1914, only months after 芙99499威尼斯信誉 opened its doors to 学生, the first 篮球 game between the Foxes and the Hounds 是 played. Ever since that Thanksgiving Day, the tradition of two spirited groups — which, 在他们中间, include every single member of the school community — battling against each other with all their heart, and then reaffirming their bonds of 朋友hip, 是学校的一部分吗.
The 福克斯/猎犬 competitions are all student-run, with a bit of guidance from the “Hound Backer” and “Foxy Fellow” 教师 advisors. Elected officers run tryouts and practices, and coach the teams in each of the three annual clashes — field hockey, 篮球, 和骑. The officers also organize “SingSings” (pep rallies) and other events, such as Banner Runnings and New Girl Runnings, 全年.
To generate enthusiasm for the upcoming Paul K. 卑尔根诗歌节, poets of all ages have recited works in Morning Meeting over the past two weeks. A special reading took place at today's Morning Meeting that honored the work of a woman known for so much at 芙99499威尼斯信誉 — Miss Charlotte. Two of her poems were read by seniors Mi跑da and Alicia, and English teach Alex Northrup gave context to the works by sharing their origin. Every Sunday during her headship, Miss Charlotte would deliver Sunday sermons. Many alumnae remember them vividly, commenting on what a great speaker Miss Charlotte 是. Her words were inspirational as they encompassed a genuine knowledge of each girl and were tailored to them.

芙99499威尼斯信誉 kicked off its 百周年庆典 Sunday with a great, big “giving back” party.
超过350人 — all wearing pink — and dozens of dogs similarly attired walked, 跑, and p跑ced around the 芙99499威尼斯信誉 campus to benefit the Cherry Blossom Breast Cancer Foundation, setting a record for participation in the Middleburg event and raising more than $38,000, not including funds raised by the 芙99499威尼斯信誉 community. A key part of the Walk since it 是 founded in 2007, 芙99499威尼斯信誉 hosted the event for the first time and CBBCF President James Atkins has already asked to come back next year.
“回馈”的精神," which permeates the 99499威尼斯信誉 community — and has since its founding in 1914 — is very contagious. As the 9月29日 Centennial Kickoff 服务日 draws near, 越来越多的校友, 学生, 家庭, and 朋友 are making their plans to participate, 要么在学校, 在“樱花步道”, 有趣的运行, and Pooch P跑ce for Breast Cancer," or at one of the growing number of locations across the country and around the world. 它是合适的.
