Peter W.'s Story
I grew up in North Salem, New York and attend North Salem Schools from 1957 to 1967. In the fall of 1967 I left North Salem Schools to attend an all boys private resident school in Webster. MA. I was 15 yrs old then. I attended Webster Academy from Sept of 67 and graduated in June of 1971. I was on several student committees, including the yearbook staff. In 1969-1970 I was the yearbook lead photographer, and photo editor. In 1970-1971 I was the yearbook's Editor-IN-Chief, Photo Editor, Layout Editor, and Photographer. I developed & printed my photos down in the basement of the school.
After graduating from Webster Academy I attended Westchester Community College in Valhalla, NY for 2 years. and joined the family business. When I left college, I moved into a small apartment in Danbury, CT. When I was 22 years old and single, I bought my 1st house in Holmes, NY. In October 1976, I got married to Joanne (still married). In 1988 we out grew that house and bought a new constructed house where we still reside in. As of Jan, 2020, we have 3 sons, 42yrs, 38ys, & 33ys old, and 3 daughter-in-laws. We have 4 grand children. 3 grandsons 10, 7, & 5 yrs old from our oldest son, and a grand daughter 1 yr. old from our youngest son.
I am in touch with some of my schoolmates from North Salem Schools. Some mates I know since 4th & 5th grade. I am on the North Salem H.S. Reunion Committee. I helped on the planning of the 2017 H.S. Reunion, and now helping planning this up coming N.S.H.S. reunion for Aug. 10...Expand for more
, 2019.
In August of 2018, on my return trip from NH, my wife Joanne of 42 years, and I stopped by to revisit Webster Academy. The school burned down in the summer of 1973. Some of the buildings of the campus are still there and have been converted into private residents. Where the main building was, there are 3 private homes. When we got home, I started to search for Webster Academy schoolmates, and joined Classmates.com. I have found a few, and sadly some have past away. Craig Serota (class of 70) and I (class of 71) are gathering names to put together a Webster Academy Reunion. I did manage to put together a mini reunion of 8 schoolmates that I found on Oct. 6, 2018, which was held on the grounds of the Annex also known as the Dugout, which is now owned by one of our schoolmates. Although the main building burned down in 1973 and the Annex in 1975, the 2 stone pillars upon entering the main building are still there. They are now the driveway entrance to a private resident. The Senior Dorm, East Hall is still there along with the classroom building to the right of East Hall and South Hall the 8th grade dorm which are also private residents.
A Webster Academy Reunion date is set for July 16 - 18, 2021. It will be held in Webster MA. on the beach (where the Annex was) of Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg , or you may call it Webster Lake if you can't pronounce it.
