Keeping the Founders’ Promise through Scholarship and Endowment Gifts
By donating to the Founders’ Promise Fund (FPF) for Scholarship or one of its three endowment (FPF
Endowment, David and Marcia MacLane Endowment for Scholarship, and the Class of 2014 Endowment
for Scholarship), you give more and more students the opportunity to maintain that open atmosphere of
learning that our founders envisioned 60 years ago. These gifts help make The Country School
affordable for a wide range of children, bringing to our community the many benefits of social and
economic diversity. In 2014-2015, 27.5% of our students benefited from your generosity and received an
education that will last a lifetime. In the future, we hope and expect that today’s recipients of funds will
donate to the next generation the same academic advantage they received from your support.

The David and Marcia MacLane Endowment for Scholarship−In Honor of Our First Head of School
For the third year in a row, Duncan MacLane '64 and his wife JoAnn, issued a challenge grant for the
David and Marcia MacLane Endowment for Scholarship, established to honor the memory of his parents
who were integral in helping to establish the values of a Country School education. An overwhelming
response triggered a second challenge from Jeff Burt '61 P '00, '03 and his wife Allee P '00, '03 to bring
the goal to $65,000. We are excited to report that 58 donors contributed $65,158 towards the MacLane
Endowment! This year marked the first year that we awarded scholarships from the MacLane
Endowment−four MacLane Scholars received tuition assistance from a portion of this endowment. We
are most grateful for your support.

Class of 2014 Endowment for Scholarship
The Class of 2014 established this endowment as a way to give back to The Country School and share
their experiences of active learning, spirited teaching, and individual attention and growth with another
generation of children. The endowment resulted from conversations over the class gift during their
graduating year. Thank you, Class of 2014, for not only creating this endowment but continuing to
support it as alumni.

Golf and Tennis Classic 2015
This year’s classic added an exciting new component to help raise money for scholarship−tennis! Pine
Orchard Yacht and Country Club hosted this year’s golfing event and due to the weather, Guilford
Racquet and Swim Club, generously donated their courts to our tennis players. The event, held on June
1, generated $27,455 in revenue, and proceeds benefited the Founders’ Promise Fund for Scholarship.
We kindly thank our chairs, Stephanie and Phil Johnson P '08, '10, '18, for the enthusiasm, dedication,
and commitment to this event, and the players, sponsors , and volunteers who made the Classic
successful and provided funds to make it possible for students to attend The Country School who
otherwise could not.

Alumni Donors
More than 1000 individuals call themselves Country School alumni, and we are proud of each one of
them. Our alumni, in fact, spend more years close to their alma mater as a former student throughout
their lives than they ever spent as an enrolled student.
We thank all alumni who contributed to this year’s Annual Campaign and who connected with us
through notes, e-mails, Facebook, Twitter, web site, and Alumni Day in November 2014. We are grateful
for your continued involvement with your alma mater and always look forward to hearing from you.
Please visit our web site at thecountryschool.org where you can check out your class notes (click on
“Alumni” on the top of the home page) and give us updates on your and your classmates’ whereabouts
and pursuits.

For more than a decade, the Heritage Society has existed for individuals and families close to The
Country School to be able to leave a legacy to support our school forever. Creating planned deferred
gifts is a tax-sensible way for people to take care of themselves and then take care of our school. Thank
you to those individuals who have made this type of gift to The Country School.

Spring Gala 2015−The Journey
This year’s Spring Gala—The Journey—was an evening filled with friendship, laughter, and all around
fun. We welcomed some 140 current parents, faculty members, trustees, former trustees, and alumni to
our unique venue at Madison Chrysler Jeep Dodge on April 25.
Through the generosity of supporters like you and other donors, $65,000+ was donated to benefit the
annual fund and financial aid scholarships. Our co-chairs, Dana and Anthony Uzwiak P ’17, ’18 and Lynn
and Jeff Haversat P ’11, ’15 along with Parent Teacher Association President Suzanne Sliker P ’22, ’29
and their volunteers, worked tirelessly in front of and behind the scenes to fulfill their vision of achieving
an event like no other. And they certainly succeeded!
Thank you to all who contributed in making this evening such a memorable and successful one.

Harvest Gathering
The Harvest Gathering on October 24, 2014 at Saddle Ranch Farms in Madison was successful in building
community spirit among current families, parents of alumni, Board members, faculty and staff, and even
a few prospective parents. Due to the generosity and vision of Katherine and Steven Pacholyk, a handful
of substantial parent donors, the Harvest Committee, and the vendors who provided their goods and
services for the evening, we were able to keep costs to a minimum and so all proceeds generated from
the Harvest Gathering benefited this year’s Annual Fund. We thank you all for supporting this evening of
friendship and fun and are grateful to count you among the dedicated supporters of The Country School.

Class of 2015 Gift
The 8th grade students this year chose a renovation of the foyer of the DeFrancis Gymnasium along with
an upgrade to the girls’ locker room as their legacy gift to The Country School. The project included a
beautiful lit showcase for the many awards presented to our athletes and teams, new flooring and
ceiling, and dozens of cubbies in the gym. The refurbishment looks wonderful and has captured the
attention of all visitors to campus since the unveiling in March. We could not have initiated and
completed this project without the generosity of the Class of 2015, their parents, grandparents,
relatives, and friends. Thank you all!

Shaping the Future−The Campaign for the 60th Anniversary
The 60th Anniversary of The Country School is an exciting time for our community. To celebrate this
milestone, the Board of Trustees launched a campaign to shape our campus and our school’s future.
Because of the early generosity and commitment of a handful of donors, we were able to begin our
ambitious capital improvements this past summer with the expansion of the athletic fields to include
two side-by-side fields and a baseball and softball field with backstop. Continued success of the
campaign will allow us to rework the campus infrastructure to create a pedestrian “village for learning”
by moving vehicles and parking away from the center of campus; rethink collaborative spaces to
facilitate interactive activities; upgrade the entrances to campus and campus buildings to reflect the
excellence of our program; create a permanent endowment to benefit faculty and staff salaries and
retirement contributions; and substantially increase the funds earmarked for scholarship.
We are so appreciative and thankful to the following donors for their timely pledges and gifts, which
allowed work on the campus transformation to begin before we opened our doors for the 60th “first day
of school.” As the campaign continues for the next two years, we know we will be celebrating even
more donors for their generosity and commitment.
