A round of thanks is in order after yesterday's 9th Annual Hayride: to everyone who attended, to the General Committee for sponsoring
the event, and to Joe & Laura Stratton for hosting the hayride at beautiful Wynnorr Farm! The weather couldn't have been better for this fun annual event.

Message from the Head of School
Dear families,
What a beautiful Sunday it was for a hayride! It was not without its adventures! Mud precluded us from riding up into the fields, but that didn't stop Wynnorr Farm owner (and General Committee member) Joe Stratton. He took us into the old barn instead! It was a real treat, and so were the s'mores by the campfire!
Many thanks to all the students, parents, grandparents and teachers (past and present!) who turned out for this annual Goshen tradition. Special thanks to Joe and Laura Stratton for hosting, and to the other General Committee members who organize the event from top to bottom. They, along with all who turned out yesterday, helped us raise $700 for the school! Thank you!!
Just a quick reminder - there will be no school on Friday, when faculty gathers for our October in-service meeting, or Monday, when all of us enjoy a day off!
Have a great week, everyone!
In friendship,
Tr. Mimi
