t last year’s Virtual Reunion, Park was honored to present the Alumni Service Award to David Glynn ’91. This award is given by the School to a member of the alumni community in recognition of their dedicated service to Park. Since joining Park’s Alumni Committee in 2011, the School and its alumni have been the appreciative beneficiaries of Dave’s involvement for the past decade. Dave’s thoughtful and engaging leadership style was quickly recognized by his peers, and he served as Alumni Annual Fund Co-Chair from 2016–18, and immediately stepped into the role of Alumni Committee Co-Chair from 2018–20. The School is grateful for the important and energizing perspective that Dave brought to these roles. His collaborative nature, with a constant openness to collecting ideas and soliciting feedback, has helped to elevate the Alumni Committee to a new level. In addition to his work with the Alumni Committee, Park has been fortunate for Dave’s service as a Park parent (Tatum, Grade 7, and Maura, Grade 6). Alongside wife, Betsy, Dave served as a Class Representative in 2015–16. As a long-standing leader on Park’s Alumni Committee, Dave exemplifies thoughtful and innovative collaboration. We are grateful for Dave’s service to The Park School. Thank you, Dave!

Class Representatives Mary Sarah Fairweather Geoffrey Glick This winter, the Alumni Office asked for updates before Reunion in May and we heard from several classmates. Amy Saltonstall says, “Although I’m no longer a Park parent, I continue to work at Park teaching Grade 8 math and coaching field hockey and lacrosse. My girls are both at Milton and enjoying the freedom that comes with being their own transportation!” Christina McGinnes McCormick writes, “My family is doing well and looking forward to getting back to a new normal as things start to open up. Both kids are great and still loving their respective schools: Finlay is in 9th grade at Newton Country Day and Leyton is in 6th at Charles River School. Recently I’ve become reunited with Christina Udelson Knopp through our daughters’ school auction. She and I are both volunteering with behind-the-scenes work and have enjoyed sharing a few Park memories and laughs.” Mary Sarah Baker Fairweather told us, “Sam, Julep (our adopted dog and the center of our lives), and I continue to enjoy living in Columbus, Ohio where I work for the ASPCA at the Cruelty Recovery Center. We frequently connect with Rob Colby ’89 and reminisce about our time at Park.” In February, Jenna Glasser sent a note from a sunny, windy palapa porch in Loreto, Mexico, where she “ran away for two weeks to celebrate [her] 50th (gulp) birthday with some friends.” Jenna shared, “It’s been a great break from the cold snowy mountains where I live in Mammoth Lakes, CA. That said, I’m excited to get back to skiing by the end of next week! I quit my corporate job a year ago and did a

contract job for a year. Just got my SHRM certification the week before coming down here so I’m about to start a shift in career/job search when I get home. Hope everyone is well!” Annie Burton Lankford graduates this May with her Master of Divinity from Iliff School of Theology in Denver. After passing her board exams, Annie wrote, “I will be commissioned as a provisional elder in the Arkansas Conference of the United Methodist Church on June 1. I received a new appointment…and will be the senior pastor of Farmington United Methodist Church [in Northwest Arkansas] beginning July 1.” Congratulations, Annie!
