Great Day To Be Home

NA brought 'em back for Homecoming and Reunion 2014.
Record numbers of fans and families flocked to the NA campus for Homecoming and Reunion 2014.

The day began with the Be the One 5K Run to benefit the Annual Fund. Participants enjoyed the early-morning quiet as they walked, jogged and ran the course, beginning and ending on majestic Coursen Field. Michael Yogg ’64 earned First Place Male Alum and Jackson Powers ’20 took First Place Under 18.

The Women of NA Luncheon honored several highly accomplished members of the Newark Academy community, including Professor Adrien Wing ’74; Joan Parlin, retired faculty; and Pamela Huttenberg, former NA trustee.

Many families brought several generations to join in the afternoon of Homecoming fun. Kids of all ages sported their NA gear and delighted in cheering on the Minuteman teams, painting pumpkins, bouncing around bouncy castles and toasting s’mores.

The NA Pep Band and the Academy Voices brought their talent and spirit to Coursen Field. The football team emerged victorious over the Harvey School Cavaliers. Over on Kacur Field, girl’s soccer had a decisive win over Science Park and boy’s soccer beat Delaware Valley Regional High School.

As the sun went down, Reunion classes caught up with old friends and celebrated their years at NA together.
