for a rigorous, engaging program and
the completion of our new campus at
Harlem Academy, and ending with a few
chapel-esque songs from Luke on the
guitar, our family has many blessings to
be thankful for and hopes the same for
everyone else.”

Da
ve Giancola: “Hi Everyone! My wife
Sam and I celebrated our 1-year anni-
versary in September, and are still living
in Jersey City, NJ. We certainly haven’t
seen as many camp friends as we’d like
given the current circumstances, but
the collection of Timanous yearbooks
have kept us busy. It’s amazing how the
pictures bring back great memories, and
always turn into a long story and a laugh.
We hope everyone is happy and healthy,
and look forward to getting back up to
Plains Road and the wooded path for a
visit as soon as we can!”
Mi
ke Goodwin: “2020 has passed
by in a strange blur. The highlight
for me however was getting mar-
ried in October to the love of my
life, officiated by my best friend
and Crows 2001 bunkmate Livy
Co
e in the desert outside of Las
Vegas. Congrats as well to Ash
Wall and Phil
Cimb
ak from the
Crows 2001 gang who just beat
me to the altar in 2020. Other
than that, my wife and I continue
to live in San Francisco, where I
work at a tech company and she’s
a mental health counselor at Kaiser. We
look forward to any and all visitors who
come West, and hope to see you all on
the Bunkline sometime soon.”
Ben “Ben
jie” Gray lives in Florida with
his beautiful wife Susan and their pup,
Sahara. “We spend as much time as pos-
sible on our boat cruising around sunny
Tampa Bay. We were fortunate to stop by
Camp T where we visited with Pineman
briefly over the summer. A walk down
the bunkline brought back all the fond
memories. Missing everyone and wishing
the happiest of holidays to all!!!”
Ch
ip Hatch: “
May
nard Wheeler, whose
sister Holly preceded us to the Gulick
world the year before, 1949, came to
Timanous and Herons with me in June
1950, continues to be a steady partner
by email and phone. He is my window
(photographs etc.) to
BVO a
nd Jake.
Also, I’ve contacted
Rol
and
Barth wh
o
lives in a town near Damariscotta.
Roland was my head counselor in Loons
in the 1957 season when I was his senior
counselor. He had this cool psychology
senior thesis project for his upcoming
Princeton senior year where he arrayed
the campers’ perception of height of
select campers and counselors. The idea
was that height was perceived tallest for
those regarded favorably in status: No
wonder Johnny Suitor was number 1;
Jake and
BVO “
tall” and
Bob
by Ferrell
and
Mook
Lanigan and so on were way
there too…”
Fred Hollister: “I spent the bulk of the
past six months happily ensconced in
Raymond enjoying the retirement pace
of life. Felt very fortunate indeed to
be able to be there through this pe-
riod of serious and ongoing challenge
presented by Covid to so very many
around the world. Not having camp in
session felt strange but seemed like the
absolute correct call. Let’s all hope sum-
mer ‘21 brings a different result. I also
enjoyed a Halloween visit to camp with
Todd
Danfo
rth,
Craig
MacDonnel
l and
our own Best Sport, Dan Shepard (high
school buddy of mine, college buddy of
Craig), for listening to Timanous tales for
over 45 years! Shout out to all in the \T/
family to stay healthy and safe!”
Dic
k Howlett: “Because of the pandem-
ic, for the first time in my life, I didn’t
spend a single day in Maine last sum-
mer. Instead Susan and I self isolated
here in Maryland, growing vegetables in
the backyard, to keep me busy and out
of trouble.”
Stu & Kathleen Howlett are slogging
through 2020 but still able to make
some connections with the local Ti-
manous crew. Everyone is healthy and
while working from home we daydream
of the next vacation, whenever that
comes. Cole, Evie and Tenley vote for
LEGOland 2021...See you out there!
Dan H
ubbard: “Despite the absence of
camp in 2020 I was fortunate to be able
to visit Maine and renew some
great Timanous connections with
Bil
l Leece and
Craig
MacDonnel
l
over a round of golf. They even let
me win a few holes!”
Ro
llin Ives: “Lynda and I are
grateful we remain healthy in
our ‘bubble’ here in Sacramento.
Unfortunately however, Covid has
meant no trips back to Maine for
the time being, but we’re hoping
it will be safer later in 2021. We’ve
recently purchased a condo-
minium in Maine which will give us
some relief from the increasingly
hot summers in California and will look
forward to spending several summer/
fall months each year getting to know
grandchildren better... and maybe visit-
ing Camp for a walk along the bunkline.”
