MALLARDS EAGLES HAWKS CROGLES HERONS FALCONS LOONS RAVENS CARDINALS CROWSGreetings from Maine! 2021 was a special summer for so many reasons. Our ability to reopen camp demonstrated the power of our wonderfully supportive community. To start with, congratulations to our 2021 campers and staff! After a year without camp in 2020, this group created a most memorable summer together, seizing the opportunity to celebrate the joys of camp, even with some slight modifications to our usual routines. I’m especially proud of how our veteran campers and counselors embraced two-years worth of new campers, welcoming them to the Timanous family and showing them the way with a willing and helpful spirit. I am also grateful to the extended Timanous family for all the encouragement directed towards everyone involved with summer 2021. Those of us at camp felt your camp spirit from afar! The bonds formed at Timanous are strong and long lasting, made clear by the many contributions and updates to the Timanews. Thank you for taking the time to write. As a reminder, please save the dates of August 12-14, 2022 for our 105th Anniversary reunion (you’ll see plenty of alumni sharing their excitement about the “Hundy +5” over the following pages). This event looks to build on the success of the 100th Anniversary celebration in 2017 by cementing the tradition of coming back to Timanous and reconnecting alumni across all eras of camp. I hope you can join us; we plan to open registration later this winter. As we look back on 2021, we have much to be thankful for: our long history and strong traditions that keep our camp vibrant today; the friendships that help us stay connected to camp; and the opportunity for the coming generations of campers and counselors to wear the Gray and Green. Enjoy the Timanews! I hope to see you in 2022. Warmest regards, Garth Altenburg, DirectorDECEMBER 2021TIMANEWS

Walter Babbitt, who was the camp chef with his wife, Mary, from 1961 to 1971, visited camp this fall with his daughter, Kathy, and enjoyed reminiscing with Dave Suitor. Sadly, Mary passed away earlier this year, but Walt is in good spirits at age 92. Jon “JB” Bellow (‘79-’81): “I continue to operate my organic farm on the Olympic Peninsula. Every so often I look up at the sky and see Chidsey fly by on his way to or from Alaska so I wave. My skills in meteorology, budded out in the nature shack, continue to come in handy as the fruit and greenhouse crops, actu-ally the entire operation, depend on an abundance of Maine State Develop-ment Commission days. Running a farm full of trees and berries and ducks and rabbits keeps me outside and enjoying the changes of the seasons. Stop by and visit SpringRainFarm if you are in the Port Townsend area. Hi Frodo!” Geoff Blum: “It was wonderful to see a number of “Old Dads” this past year. I saw many during the multiple-birthday celebration hosted by Craig MacDonnell and Fred Hollister. I also enjoyed see-ing Jodi and Ken Yarbrough as we visited Saratoga and Cooperstown. I then met up with Peter Bopp and we toured the Lake George and Fort Ticonderoga regions of the Adirondacks. My final Old Dad citing came in October as I met up with Ansley Sawyer in Rockland as he decommissioned his summer cottage for the season.” Bill Breidenstine: “Happy Holidays from Hershey! Susan and I are doing well and soon to be empty nesters. Ella graduated with an architecture degree last spring and is working for a firm in the DC area. Laura is a college senior in Philadelphia, and Clara is a high school senior sorting through college choices. Looking forward to this time of year between Thanksgiving and Christ-mas when we get together with family and friends. Loved being at Camp for the Hundy and look forward to the Hundy +5. I will do everything in my power to make sure John is there, too, even if I have to escort him from Thailand. Not a bad side trip! Stay healthy everyone.” Ben Burke: “I’ve been busy. I left the oil in-dustry and cofounded a geothermal com-pany with the goal of converting oil wells to geothermal wells. Still living in Colorado and cycling and skiing quite a bit.” Jake Carpenter: “Greetings from Califor-nia! After about 5 years of living in a van and teaching outdoor education, I finally signed a lease in the town of Truckee, a stone’s throw from beautiful Lake Tahoe. Luckily, we have been out of the evacu-ation zones for all of the recent fires, but it was a very smoky summer! I never knew the plight of bad air quality until now; it has me missing windy days on Panther Pond, where all you were wor-ried about was if the sailing was good, and not if the wind is kicking up another fire. This past winter I got a position on the professional ski patrol at Alpine Meadows (now Palisades Tahoe) and plan on staying there for a good while. I’m still filling my other seasons work-ing outside in various aspects. Recently, I’ve started singing camp tunes to keep myself distracted whenever I’m in nasty weather. Nothing seems more calming while hiking in the middle of a blizzard than belting “Old Chief Timanous”. And now that I have a place, open invitation for anyone who wants to come out and visit, maybe we can hike/ski/bike and sing together! Cheers!” Henry Carroll: “I’ve been working in Washington, DC, but am moving to Madison, WI in the new year. If anyone makes it out that way, please let me know! I didn’t make it to camp this past summer, but I can’t wait to be there for the 105th!” TIMANOUS UPDATEMALLARDS EAGLES HAWKS CROGLES HERONSAINSELY SAWYERBEN BURKEDAVE SUITOR AND WALTER BABBITTKEN AND JODI YARBROUGH

We are thrilled to share that we surpassed all of our goals for the Second Century Campaign! With the support of more than 500 donors, we raised over $7.4M in total. Timanous was purchased in 2018 to become a nonprot, and we established the Sandy Tattersall Fund campership endowment. We were inspired by how our community rallied this past year to address dramatically increased needs due to our unexpected 2020 closure, including rebuilding the Timanous Fund in order to nance pressing capital projects over the coming years. Everyone can be proud of the solid foundation that has been laid for Timanous to continue to grow as a nonprot in our camp’s second century. Stay tuned for more details in our upcoming 2021 Annual Report. Until then, thank you to everyone in the Timanous community for their role in reaching a successful conclusion to the campaign! We are grateful for your support, now and always, for Timanous.Sam Chaplin: “Amy and I bought our first house this year in Manchester, ME. Nice to be closer to family and have some tall pine trees of our own. Home ownership has me realizing my full futz-ing potential. Working a hybrid schedule so I make it down to Portland a couple days a week. Miss you all and hope you are well!” David Chidsey is teaching 8th grade math in Gorham and is glad his school is back to all students, 5 days a week. But Chids has been spotted at camp most weeks this Fall, pushing back the woods, under the rifle range or just strolling the bunkline, looking at the changing leaves. With Rachel, they continue to make trips to WA and AK, passing through SeaTac Airport, seven straight months. Ellie is now a college graduate, spent the summer counting fish in Sitka, Alaska and is teaching science to 6th graders at Emerald Cove Science Institute in Run-ning Springs, CA. Be well, keep in touch and keep thinking camp. Scott Chrysler: “All is well with the Chrysler family. Our oldest son is work-ing in Indianapolis for a vegetation management company and engaged. The twins are in their junior year at LSU with one majoring in Construction Man-agement and the other in Information Systems and Decision Sciences. After 25 years in many different roles at the Episcopal School of Acadiana, in Cade, Louisiana, it was announced in early November that I would be leaving at the end of the academic year. Janetta and I are moving to Columbia, SC where I will begin as the Director of Operations at the Hammond School on July 1. We are very excited for the new adventure and getting a bit closer to the north. Wishing everyone a peaceful and happy holiday season and end to the year.” Philip Cimbak: “I hope this note finds everyone and their loved ones healthy and safe. Since the last submission we have had the pleasure of connecting with several members of the TImanous family. We’ve been fortunate to see Ryan Whelpley, his wife Steph and son Grant on a few occasions, and made the trip to Raymond from Bethesda to house-sit for Casey and Grant Burgess before spending an amazing weekend with the crew who celebrated Brendan Blake’s wedding. With several Timanous gatherings already on the calendar, we are excited to see what the next year brings! -Phil, Megan, and Raymond the dog.” TIMANOUS UPDATEFALCONS LOONS RAVENS CARDINALS CROWSDAVE CHIDSEYSecond century campaign completed

Chris Clarke: “Greetings Camp T from the Clarke Family in Armonk, NY! After leaving NYC last year, Chris and wife Gaby welcomed their third baby boy, Chase, in July. Brothers Christian (5) and Julian (2) complete what has become an interesting and dynamic household. Flat rest and quiet hour have taken on a whole new meaning for this old camper and counselor! Wishing everyone happy holidays and hope to see you all at the Hundy+5.”Livy Coe: “Hello Timanous Family! I’m happily back in the US after spending 9 months in Bahrain with the Navy. High-lights of the trip included seeing Lewis Hamilton win the Bahrain Grand Prix, and practicing Quiet Hour at the beach. I’m currently wrapping up with the Navy in Virginia and had a great time explor-ing Yorktown, where the American Revolution culminated. I’ve also been lucky to see Ash Wall and Ryan Whelp-ley recently, and can’t wait for many more Timanous reunions this winter, and hopefully a walk down the bunkline in 2022! Big hugs.” Tucker Cutler: “Fortunate to see Mark Nicholson a few times a week, as our kids go to the same school. And since he lives a stone’s throw away, I am able to visit him whenever is possible. It makes me feel good to have a camp connec-tion nearby. Lastly, wonderful to see the old dads for their birthday celebrations this summer, and those who were able to be a part of the festivities! What a special group of people!! Cheers to you all.” Teddy Danielson: “2021 was a packed year for me! I finished my junior year of college, was accepted into the Navy’s nuclear program as a future submarine officer, and got to work in the Florida Keys over the summer. I especially enjoyed hearing Erik Danielson’s up-dates from Camp! If you’re ever passing through Bozeman, MT, reach out!” Owen Davies: “Nico Davies is looking forward to his first summer at camp. Lorenzo graduated college from SUNY Binghamton in May, and I am helping to keep NYC Parks green at the Hudson River Park Trust.” Vinny Dotoli: “Thanks to everyone who made this past summer so special for my son Luke and all the boys who attended camp from Harlem Academy. We’re all happy to be back in school and playing sports, especially soccer, down here in NYC but can’t wait to be back up on Panther Pond!” Archie Douglas: “I continue to love life in Santa Cruz, CA. Still working long hours as a college counselor at Bent-ley School, but camp songs get me through the commute! I miss you all, but the knowledge that Timanous - and everything it stands for - rolls on is so satisfying. So proud of the Board and all who supported the Campaign for their tremendous work!” Dave Giancola: “My wife Sam and I are still living in downtown Jersey City and working in the NYC area. We were able to take a quick trip up to Maine in late-August for a walk down the bunkline to Crows Point and, of course, a Tuesday visit to Gritty’s in Portland to see some Timanous legends. After a few years away from Maine, it always amazes me how the great memories flood back the second you pull into the camp driveway off of Plains Road. We routinely see Wil Laprade in New York, and Tanner Pow-ers often drops by when he is back in the area. If anyone is visiting or living in the NYC area and would like to catch-up, please reach out anytime! My email is d.giancola4@gmail.com -- as always, look to this day!” Mike Goodwin: “After a crazy 2020, it’s been great to get back to some sem-blance of normalcy in 2021. My wife and I are still in San Francisco, where she’s a therapist with Kaiser Permanente and I recently started an insurance technol-ogy company called Annex Risk. It’s exciting and daunting to be starting something from scratch after a couple of years in the comfortable confines of Big Tech. I think this has been the first full year without seeing any Timanous folks in at least a decade, so I’m looking forward to reuniting with old friends at the 105th this summer. Please do reach out if you find yourself in the Bay Area!” Fred Hollister: “Greetings to all in the Ti-manous community! It was great to see Camp able to operate in a fairly normal state this summer and by all accounts Garth and the entire staff did a great job with contingency plans that kept the pandemic at bay yet did not reduce the zeal of the campers nor the fun factor they experienced one bit!

and Croatia in the first half of October, then caught a few Dead and Company shows out in Colorado while visiting son, Sam, in Boulder. Still up in Raymond as I type this after spending a very sunny and unseasonably warm first ten days of November up here before closing things up tomorrow. Happy 50th (go figure) anniversary to our Crows cabin of ‘71 and here’s hoping to see any and all from the ‘69-’82 era at the “Hundy + Five” next August!” Dick Howlett: “The highlight of my year was honoring Jake Congleton (my Crows Head Counselor, 61 years ago, 1960) onboard the Songo River Queen. What made that evening so extra special was all the other Timanous people on that cruise. From my nephew, Chris Hasty (at camp in the late ‘70s), to every one of the old “120” crowd from back in the 60s and 70s, all the way up to my new-est young Timanous counselor friends. It was magical!” Stu & Kathleen Howlett: “The past year for us included a local move, Evie (6) joining Cole (9) at the local elementary school and Tenley (4) waiting in the wings. Kathleen and I are as busy as ever with work & life while rooting for Denny Hamlin (NASCAR), Radford Highlanders (D1bball) and the Greenville Triumph (USL1). Hope to catch you at the inaugu-ral Fenway Bowl.” Ed Johnson: “This past year I have been primarily focused on battling thyroid cancer that spread to my lungs. So far, the intensity is reduced so now I just try to deal with bad arthritis in my knees. So I’m now getting back into being a part-time journalist and trying to support local efforts to combat climate change and ocean levels rising. I presently live about 100 yards up from the Mystic River and am beginning to think that in about 25 years or so my daughter will have waterfront property. We have at least 4 kayaks so I guess we’ll survive. But a waterfront home on Panther Pond sounds more and more attractive....” Bob(by) Keller: “Not much new to report. I am still flying mph Cessna 182 regularly here in northern NY, enjoying retirement. Jamie is living and teaching near Woodstock, NY.”The Kelseys continue to be so fortunate during these times: Nate back on cam-pus and enjoying classes at UDub, Cole still blowing his horn and busy with col-lege applications, Chris and Vonda with a recent trip to Michigan that culminated in a football game at the Big House. Also a multi-generation family reunion in Vegas that included Camp T veterans Henry Sr. (1940s), Henry Jr. and Chris (1970s-80s). Our immense gratitude to the many Timanous alumni that continue to participate in the cultural and financial preservation of Timanous - well done and best of holidays all! David “D.K.” Koestler: “Hi Camp Timanous! This past summer, although I was unable to attend camp, I attained my New York State and National level Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) License. I was able to work as an EMT at my town’s ambulance corps during the thick of Covid-19 and help others in need. I continue volunteering when I am home for break from College.

I am currently in my freshman year at Wesleyan University in CT. I am tak-ing psychology and education studies classes, which I love! It feels like it has been years since I have been at camp. I miss the tall pines and the sparking lakes, and most of all, I miss the people. I look forward to hopefully coming back to camp this summer and seeing the green and gray! All the best.” Steinar Knutsen: “We are doing well here in Pottersville, NJ. Had a fun sum-mer traveling around the east coast including my first trip to Nantucket. We celebrated my 50th birthday this No-vember with an incredible round of golf at Kiawah Island Ocean Course. Richard is almost three years old … only a few more years until Mallards!” Ted Leavitt and his wife Vicky made it back into the house sitting world, spending the summer down in the rainforest of Costa Rica and the autumn out in San Diego, CA. We’re looking forward to getting together with our entire family over Christmas in London, as it’s probably been 5 years since we were together as a family. Ted continues to pay the bills with a small real estate operation and is now in year 5 of his RYKRISP litigation -- hoping to be able to report on success in some future is-sue of “Timanews”. Tripp Leavitt plans to join the ranks of the married in early 2022 as he is engaged to Jackie Estevez. The two follow the parents’ tradition of living in different places as Tripp is now a PGY-5 reconstructive plastic surgeon resident at the Cleveland Clinic, while Jackie decamped after three years as an internal medicine resident and is now on a 4-year GI fellowship at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, specializing in hepatology (diseases of the liver). Chris Leavitt has taken the FIRE move-ment to heart and is now living in Miami Beach, FL. That means “financial independence, retire early”. He left Sotheby’s and now focuses on invest-ments in the DeFi space. Times certainly have changed. While NYC was nice, the sun and relaxation of Miami seems to be treating him well. Bryce Leavitt continues as a two-job guy, doing his legal cost consulting for blue-chip clients and then running the sales and supply chain side for REESE COOPER. The consulting is in London, while the fashion base is in LA, so he sometimes gets stretched a bit thin. Bryce and Chris bought apartments in the same building over in London, which gives them an opportunity for a bit more family communication.Bill Leece: “Just got back from a great weekend in Raymond where I saw Timanous alums Fred Hollister, Steve Richardson, Chids, Pete Szuch, Pine-man, Suitcase, Grant Pennoyer, Craig MacDonnell and Jake Congleton. A great time had by all.” Eric Lindau: “Happy Holidays to All! Just want to say hello from Chicago, and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone next summer for the reunion! Things here are going well, and I think of Camp often. I started a new position this fall teaching PE at a private school called “Frances Xavier Warde” in the heart of the city, and that’s been exciting. My partner Gretchen and I just got a puppy, so that’s fun, and what else? Hmmm… I’m working on getting a sailboat pretty soon. (Because if we’re not on land, we’re, well.. you know, ..in the water!) If anyone’s ever coming through the Windy City, definitely feel free to reach out (eric_lindau@live.com) and come on by – guest room available!” Roger Llewelyn (1973): “I haven’t a great deal to report due to UK Covid-19 Lock-downs etc. Fortunately, my family has managed to survive. However, the onset of the pandemic significantly delayed the operation for my total right hip replacement, not eventually happening until 26 August just gone by.

Shall be looking forward to a Medi-terranean summer holiday for a change. While professional sport has generally been continuing here during the pan-demic, one particular event for me that was very pleasing was that Wales won the 2021 ‘6 Nations’ Rugby Champion-ship, albeit matches taking part with no crowds to support the teams. Great to see that Timanous resumed camp this last summer 2021. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to All. / Nadolig Llawen & Blwyddyn Newydd Dda i Bawb.” Bauer Lynch graduated from The Lawrenceville School this past June, and is currently in the middle of a gap year before heading to Elon University in the fall.

Craig MacDonnell (‘65-’76, ‘78-’80) sends greetings to each of his fellow 1971 Crows cabin mates. “I can’t believe it’s been 50 years and hope to see many of you next summer at the HUNDY + 5. Let’s try to be the best represent-ed Crows cabin there! Birds of a Feather, Always Together!” Brian Martin: “After four years in the city, the Martin family committed to Washington, D.C. as our home, buying a house in the North Cleveland Park neighborhood. Our backyard is the size of a postage stamp (big for DC!) and just enough space to administer fire-bucket dips on hot summer nights. I happily saw a few old friends this year, espe-cially Seth Coburn and Pine and Nick and Ana and the girls in Portland, and then had a great weekend trip with Ben Shestakofsky and Will Carroll and their awesome families in October. I hope to see many more old friends in the year ahead!” Sandy Martin: “David Martin, my son, and I did come to Maine the latter part of August, staying south of Portland at The Dunes. The Dunes is a lovely place where we rented a cottage for two weeks. We thought about Tima-nous which we tradition-ally visit when in Maine but knew visitors couldn’t visit this summer due to the virus. My primary job these days is volunteer coaching the club swim team at Xavier University here in Cincinnati. I go three evenings a week and then accompany the team at meets at colleges near enough to travel to and return the same day. Much enjoyment helping young people. My other activity the past year has been over seeing some changes on the pipe organ at our church, a long term project which I became involved with soon after college many years ago. Timanous is often in my thoughts and I cherish the time I spent there both as a camper and later as a counselor.” Will Mayer: “We are all doing well. Tom started his journey at Seton Hall Uni-versity this fall. Katie had a successful transition from camper to TG at Wohelo. She misses both her camp family and her big brother. I have been very busy teaching at Sacred Heart University and his psychology practice, and continue to serve on the Timanous Board. Mary is busy keeping us all organized!” Ted McElhinny: “All good down here in MD. Thoroughly enjoying my new retired life but still trying to come to grips with the fact that the Federal Aviation Administra-tion says that I’m too old at 65 to fly big airplanes. Definitely missing the flying but not being on the road, away from home and lonely nights in a hotel room. 35 years of that was enough. Trying to sail my boat as much as possible. Had a very nice journey (66 days) this summer up to Maine and back. So successful that I’m planning on doing it again next summer. So hopefully I can pull that off again and rent a car from somewhere up there and join the 105th reunion. Sounds like fun. Hope everyone is well.

Ben Motley made an excellent toast, and gathering on Panther Pond just felt right. Here in the UK, I’m developing a per-sonality and psychology app that we hope will be used by many for under-standing yourself/others, and promot-ing better communication. Timanous people will undoubtedly enjoy it. Don’t be a stranger if you find yourself any-where in Europe: jwmillis@gmail.com. I’m often traveling and working remote-ly, and as the years roll on, I realize more and more just how special this group is. Sending a hug, and look to this day.” Ben Motley: “2021 was a busy year in the Motley/Chase household. We welcomed our daughter, Olive into the world in March and recently made a move Downeast to the Blue Hill Penin-sula where we are enjoying the slower pace and ample firewood supply. We had fun seeing a good assortment of Timanous folks this summer and look forward to welcoming visitors in 2022!” Sean O’Brien: “Hello from Charlestown, MA. Still living in the great city of Boston all of these years. One kid in college and another about to go next year. Drive by camp often on the way to visit my par-ents in Waterford.

Forty years ago I wrote an essay entitled “Reading at Forty.” Last week I finished “Reading at Eighty.” I have now begun “Reading at One Hundred and Twenty.” This, I am afraid, will lead to a dead end--literally.

More often I think about the boys and men who were my friends--such happy days sunny with smiles and laughter..” Tom Poor: “After 42 years, we sold our home in Norwell, Mass. in June ‘21 and moved to a new home in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Jack Suitor is nearby in Stuart, making it easy to meet almost monthly for lunch. Son Morgan remains in Boston and runs the squash program at Milton Academy.” John “Boog” Powell: “I am living in Manhattan with my wife Britta and 15 year old son Lincoln.” Paul Robertson: “Knowing me, know-ing you …ahaaaaa greetings from across the pond.

We miss you all so very much and the lockdown has stopped any visits - so proud to see all that is happening under new leadership but will the stalwart values still in tact. Love and miss you all, I carry Camp T every-day in my heart.” Matt “Schmiddy” Schmidlin: “Hello friends. I hope everyone has had a happy and somewhat healthy year. It most certainly has been a strange one. Despite not being at camp this past summer, I am so happy for every-one who once again were able to be together at Timanous. We cannot wait until our son William is old enough to become part of the Tima-nous family. He already loves reading our old yearbooks (espe-cially the funny faces me and Ebs usually make). We are proud to announce that by the time you all are reading this, we’ll have a baby girl joining our family. We are all still loving Asheville and always happy to host visitors. Be well everyone, and try your best to keep the values of Timanous in your everyday lives. Happy holidays. We hope to see everyone at the Hundy plus five. Colin Sharpe: “Still a proud member of the growing Bahía de Potrero communi-ty in Costa Rica, but had the joy of visit-ing camp in the fall this year! When you walk the grounds of Timanous alone, it is beautiful, but also haunting, and seems surprisingly smaller. Amazing how the countless friends and memories to find along the bunkline make camp seem larger than life. Maybe that’s the true essence of the Timanous spirit.” Ben Shestakofsky: “Isheh and I are still living in Philly with our son Milo. In October we enjoyed a weekend on the Chesapeake Bay with Will Carroll’s and Brian Martin’s families.” Liam, Nico and Charlie Stuart are doing well. Liam is a sophomore at Colgate, Nico a Freshman at Washington Uni-versity in St. Louis and Charlie a Junior in high school at Rivers School.They missed Camp T in 2021 for a wonderful family trip to Sardinia, Lake Como and Milan, Italy and Murren, Switzerland.

We bought a property on Crescent Lake (old timers will remember it as the former Camp Kingsley) and are enjoying summers, weekends, and holidays there with fam-ily and friends. In October we had to drag a beaver dam out of the culvert on the Tenny River to get to Panther Pond! Our girls are all back east. Elizabeth (now married to Michael) just started her PhD in electrical engineering at Harvard, Madi graduates from Emmanuel College in May, and Catherine graduates from Loomis Chaffee in May as well.

Hans Dieter is soon to become a Civil Engineer; Christian is starting his second year at UCAB University (Social Communications) but loves the idea of representing differ-ent artists (music) in Venezuela; Kako is starting his junior year at high school and looking forward to his Crows year at camp.

Hope to visit Tima-nous in 2022!” James Temple: “In June, I moved from Jackson Hole to Charlottesville, VA to do a one year post-bacc pre-med program at UVA. It’s been great to be closer to east coast friends and (Timanous) fami-ly, and I’ve loved exploring West Virginia with my dog and mountain bike.” Dick Towne: “Chad Stern and I met in Andover at his home and realized that we both shared experience as coun-selors of Falcons, me in the ‘50s thanks to Merce Blanchard’s recommendation. Both have kept up through attendance by my grandsons Ari and Aren Bloom and his son Austin Stern also this year. My son Jim Towne was also a camper in the ‘80s, now working as a video editor in Hol-lywood. Great camp experience for us all.” Alan Van Order: “All is well with the Van Orders in Washington, DC. Kate is at American University and I have started a new role helping municipalities introduce food scrap recycling programs with a lo-cal company called Compost Crew. Our girls are both at Wilson HS. Samantha heads to college next year. She wants to be a nurse so keep the role open at the top of slug hill for summer of 2026. Our best to the entire Timanous community.” BVO and Lill Van Order: “It was a fairly good year for the Van Orders. We were up at our cabin in Norway for the month of August and Kate, AVO, Louise, Bryce and four granddaughters with four big dogs were there for part of the time. All, dogs included, love the water and we had fantastic weather when they were there. Hurls visited and he and Lill had a long swim along the lake shore. We still love living at Carolina Bay retire-ment community with lots of wonderful neighbors and activities to keep us busy - a little like camp for old people! Hope all is well and Happy Holidays to all.” Adrian “Sandy” Van Sinderen: “I am hap-pily retired after over 50 years of teach-ing - classes from kindergarten to college - 24 years at Montgomery Community College in Troy, NC. I will never forget my experience at Timanous - those summers shaped the rest of my life.” Ash Wall: “Hello from Cambridge, Mas-sachusetts! My wife and I got to see a number of Timanous friends over the past year -- a welcome treat. We are doing well here and enjoying life in New England. Although we weren’t able to be at camp this summer, we embraced camp-like activities with hiking in the White Mountains and a canoe trip in the Minnesota Boundary Waters -- where I threw around the word “Umbagog” to let them know I was serious. Hope ev-eryone is doing well and we get to cross paths soon!” TIMANOUS UPDATEFALCONS LOONS RAVENS CARDINALS CROWSALAN VAN ORDER AND FAMILYGAIL AND JOHN SUITOR

Ryan Whelpley: “It has been a great year for the Whelpley family. Grant is walking, talking, and keeping us on our toes. We were grateful to be healthy this year and for the chance to see a number of camp friends this year including Livy Coe, the Burgesses, the Walls, and the Cimbaks. And lastly, like any good offseason, I got to walk the bunkline and see Dave, Linda, and Pineman.” Dave Whitcraft: “Greetings Timanous family! First, I’d like to give a shout out to Chids who, for years, has kept us all together with news and photographs. I am grateful for the years I spent at camp - learning, sharing with friends, making life-long friends, and the diverse adventures camp provided and which in great part, made me the man I am to-day. Camp gives us character, strength, and an open mind - which makes us all better. Today I am up at 6am - meeting a friend to go ‘droning’ down in Long Beach near the ports. We’re going to take pictures of all the cargo ships out in the bay waiting to be unloaded. Looking forward to visiting brother Steve and his family in Dallas for Thanksgiving.” Nick Williams: “Hello Timanous! It’s been a busy year for the Williams family. The kids spent the summer at a local na-ture day camp and loved it. Their days in the woods exploring and just a short walk to the beach Ben (7) and Izzy (5) came home exhausted every day. In the fall they started their first year physically at their elemen-tary school and are flourishing. Danielle my wife is still doing great at the VA helping veterans. In September I was finally able to have my first art gallery show. It was a blast and I’m busy painting again. We were lucky enough to cross paths a couple times with Timanous alums this past year. Hopefully a bunch more in the future.” Bruce Wimberly: “Greetings to all Tima-nous friends! Looking forward to seeing everyone at the 100 + 5 this coming summer. Was fortunate to have spent a wonderful dinner this past summer with fellow 1980 Crow - Halsey Hewson in lovely Jackson Hole Wyoming. I am still living in the Boston area on the South Shore. My wife Laurie and our three kids are doing well and like everyone staying very busy. My best to all and great to see camp back in action this past summer. Be well.” Jim Winninghoff: “Hi Folks. Been miss-ing my annual visit to T the last few years, already looking forward to 105. Did get to visit with a few old dads at outdoor Gritty’s in August. Good to see Jake, Dick, Chids, Dave and Linda and even Jack S. Go Kraken!” Nick Young: “In October, I watched my oldest and dearest camp friend, Charlie Truslow, marry his wife Rachel in Fort Worth, Texas. Fellow 2005 Crow Casey Calamaio was also in attendance. It was so great to reminisce about our years at camp and the profound impact Timanous continues to have on our respective lives. I was fortunate enough to spend the entire summer in Maine, where my parents are happily retired and split their time between Rockland TIMANOUS UPDATEMALLARDS EAGLES HAWKS CROGLES HERONSASSORTED CROWS AND COUNSELORS, ‘69-’71THE THIRSTY BROTHERS BAND AND GROUPIESCASEY CALAMAIO, CHARLIE TRUSLOW, AND NICK YOUNG

and Vinalhaven. While in Maine, I also had the pleasure of attending Priscilla Motley’s wedding in Boothbay Harbor. Brooks and Ben Motley served as co-officiants and, unsurprisingly, absolutely brought the house down. Other than that, I am still living in San Francisco with my partner Alex and working at Meta (previ-ously known as Facebook) on the Global Business Re-silience team, where I man-age commu-nications for the company’s Crisis Manage-ment, Business Continuity, and Commu-nity Resilience programs.” Blaze Zeilman: “Aloha Timanous, Living on Kauai with my wife Adriann. I work as a mortgage broker and Adriann is a family physician. We took in a couple of feral cats this year, Tiger and Davy. I think of the good times at camp often and miss the \T/ family. Drop me a line if anybody is ever in Hawaii.” 2021 CAMPERS AND STAFF Danny Alonso: “Senior year of high school has been busy, especially with cross country and college apps, but I’m hanging in there and still have some time to spend with my friends and family. I already can’t wait to get back to camp and see everybody again!” Trey Baum: “I just started my freshman year of high school and I was lucky enough to visit Timanous over my fall break. I’m doing wres-tling and base-ball and cannot wait to get back to camp next summer!” Michael Beam: “The high point of my offsea-son so far was attending Bren-dan Blake and Masha Zilberman’s wedding at Kingsley Pines (ft. Jon Millis). It was a treat to reunite with camp friends and to see Jim Poulin cut a rug on the dance floor. When I’m not teaching in Boston, I flee to the wild woods of New Hampshire, passing through Exeter to glimpse a Moriarty or two. With some more camp weddings on the calendar, I’m grateful for the moves I workshopped at all the Tim/Wo dances of my past.” Aren Bloom: “Wow. Another summer at Camp Timanous is approaching fast. To all returning campers, this will be a year after two past where we hope-fully won’t have to wear masks. To 2022 crows, ENJOY YOUR SUMMER!!! To new campers, it is great that you have chosen to come to Timanous. You will make tons of friends, and will have a great time do-ing every activity that your heart desires (non-technology related).

The wood stove has already been going for a couple of months, and our dog Albie loves alternating between roaming the backyard for squirrels and curling up by the fire. My Land Jester skills have never been put to better use!” Mike Congleton: “Halsey Congleton (Crows ‘15) is taking a break from college during the covid times working in Utah at Red Cliff Ascent. Zada Congleton is graduating from Asheville High / Silsa this year and spending the fall looking at colleges. Roxy continues to look for squirrels, cats and groundhogs, and Ban-dit is still looking for his next meal (he misses the camp dumpster a lot Bob, and is losing weight). LG and I are spend-ing as much time as we can at Fontana Lake! When we are not out there LG is singing in a band, and I’m in my studio at Grovewood (Grove Park Inn). We do work some too and still love Asheville despite its increased popularity.” Mateo Diaz and his dad have gotten really into disc golf. They recently played their first 18-hole course on Sugarloaf Mountain. Mateo’s favorite disc is the Zeus, which is a distance driver. Izzy Hidalgo: “I’m back mountain biking on the weekends and have been work-ing on landing my drops and jumps. So far no face plants! I joined a cross country track team and enjoy practicing and racing with the team. I also saw the Foo Fighters in concert. It was the 4th time I’ve seen them - they are a lot of fun. I can’t wait to see everyone again at camp next summer.” Sam Hollister: “Greetings Timanous community! Hope everyone is doing as well as one can in the throes of the offseason. I am living the Western life once again out in Boulder, with plans to study in Buenos Aires in the spring - returning just in time for the start of the 2022 summer! Just flew home to watch the Sawx clinch the ALDS against Tampa, and got to see 2/3rds of the Brothers Neafsey (Ryan and Patrick) in the process. And if Liam Prior can avoid hitting an elk this time, hopefully I’ll be able to spend some time up in the Wind River range with him before the snow comes! May the four winds blow you all safely home!” Cort Johnson has been playing a lot of travel hockey and lacrosse (that is, when he’s not talking about Timanous and his camp friends). This is his first year on a serious travel hockey team, so he is having a lot of fun traveling with his teammates to games up and down (but mostly up) the East Coast. He is playing goalie full-time and loving it. Cort enjoyed some golf and tennis with fellow campers Campbell Bass and Mateo Delasobera when they returned home to DC after camp this summer. Cort also helped cheered on Campbell to victory in a tennis tournament and plans to cheer on Mateo, who is playing for a very competitive hockey team. Being with his friends and talking about Timanous makes next summer not feel so far away.” Jennifer Leachko and her dog Gunner have enjoyed hiking and camping this fall, with plans to connect with Tima-nous friends this winter. Fred Lehmann: “A fun fall for the Lehm-anns with the typical sports stuff, Gus in 8th Grade and Teddy in 6th Grade. Family trip to KC to visit my sister, Heidi ( Wohelo 1979-1984), and taking in a Chiefs game a highlight.

Jack Leyden, aka Pineman, reports that Julie and he have moved to a new home in Bonita Springs, Florida! Still loving the warm weather of Florida. It was awe-some to see so many Timanous folks at Brendan and Masha Blake’s wedding in early September. Pine is still shaking his head that Jimmy Poulin and Kat were able to get him out of Florida in Decem-ber to join the Timanous and Wohelo crowds for their wedding in Vermont! Happy Holidays to all! Nick and Ana Leyden still live and work at Eaglebrook School, which contin-ues to be Timanous South. Olivia and Amalia are in first grade and pre-school, respectively, and can’t wait for the offseason to end so they can get back to Camp. Finn Murray and family welcomed a new family member to their pack this fall…Introducing Ollie! Chase Orlando: “All is well here on the Jersey Shore in Little Silver! Just after camp ended, I went up to my grandpar-ent’s summer home in Bristol, Maine. We were able to take an overnight on Monhegan Island, ME, which my family does every few years. We got to do some hiking out there as well. My family and I got to spend a few weeks up there before coming back to New Jersey to start school again. I have begun all my usual fall/winter sports seasons (soccer, ice hockey, box lacrosse, etc). School has been going well and all my new teachers are great! I was also able to spend a day with one of my camp friends, Kellam Endres, at his grandmother’s lake house in Harrison, ME. We had a blast motor-ing and fishing around the lake in his canary yellow skiff. We caught 13 fish (bass, perch, sunfish)! Can’t wait for summer 2022!” Elliot Scott: “I’ve been keeping very busy with school and artwork these past few months. Additionally I started running for cross country and made the varsity team (don’t know how that hap-pened) I’ve also been trying to remake something that somewhat resembles a social life now that the pandemic is winding down. Other than that I’ve been in a good routine and I’m happy with how life’s going.” Bob Simmons: “Wow! I look back at the success we had for the 2021 summer at Camp Timanous. It was great watching all the campers and staff interact with all the different activities camp provided. I am looking forward to returning to camp in 2022 and creating a menu with differ-ent foods and fun events. Wishing the Timanous family a wonderful holiday season and a successful 2022.” Dave and Linda Suitor: “We are enjoy-ing living year-round at our home on Panther Pond and were so excited to have the campers and counselors return to Timanous! We recently purchased a small condo in Portland’s East Bayside section where we are looking forward to spending time also. The summer of 2022 will be excit-ing with another great camp season, the 105th reunion and the wedding of daughter Abby to Chris Livers after that. When these events are over, we plan on an extended trip in our new 24-foot motor home. Please be in touch if you are in the area.” Kaden Tolbert: “Hello Timanous staff and campers! 2021 was my first year at Timanous. Most of you probably know I was in Eagles, and I know that Garrett, Grant, and Justin know I was in Eagles. My experience at Timanous was great! At first, I didn’t know my way around, but now, I know every part of the place like I was born there. I am planning to come back next year, and hopefully by then Covid is over and doesn’t get worse. I am looking forward to seeing everyone again. I hope everyone made it back safe. Have a great rest of the year.” Alex von Uckermann: “Hello from Kansas City! Since we all said our farewells at the end of camp, I am now a freshman at PHS, played Varsity and JV football for the “Raiders”, am part of the school choir, and currently prep for basketball season. High School is a lot of work, and there are so many times I wish I would be at Panther Pond instead. Football is awe-some, but nothing really compares to Timanous! Miss you all! And hopefully we get to see each other soon!” Ben Warren has been playing games and having lots of good times with his friends, and enjoys playing video games with his brother, Griffin, who also would like to report that he loves yo-yos!TIMANOUS UPDATEFALCONS LOONS RAVENS CARDINALS CROWSFINN MURRAY AND OLLIEKELLAM ENDRES AND CHASE ORLANDOGARTH ALTENBURG AND JEANETTE MICHAEL

But time marches inexorably forward and we’re simply grateful to be reaching out to you as a group at this moment in time and com-memorating this event. No doubt we have many stories to tell about the in-tervening years, especially for those of us who haven’t seen much of each other since that auspicious sum-mer of 1971. Our primary hope is that many of you will return to the scene of the crime and join us for next summer‘s Timanous reunion, the “Hundy + 5,” scheduled for next August 12–14, 2022.Please seriously consider being there!
