Class of 1993.
It’s been 17 years since I graduated from Bridgetown Regional High School, and more than 10 since I set foot inside the doors.
Until yesterday.
It smells the same. It looks the same. Some of the teachers are the same. My dorky photo is still on the wall.
I instantly reverted to the age of 17, and was positive I would get in trouble for “roaming the halls”.
I made the trip down to give a presentation to the Grade 11 and 12 students on “Senior Portraits” and drug invited Liam Hennessey along for the ride. (Good thing too, cuz you never know when an expert stick man drawing is needed!)
We spoke to a small, but interested, group about everything from composition and exposure to our photography backgrounds.
And then…….then it was time to do what we do. The cameras came out, and the good times rolled.
Thanks to “the girls” for being so willing…you were the highlight of our day….thank you for not calling me Ms. Shields….and thank you for not rolling your eyes when I called you “kids” !
Big thanks to Lori Whitman-Price (Art teacher and friend extraordinare, so obviously loved by all her kids), staff and students, all of whom were so welcoming.
GO TROJANS!
