Assembly Presentation: Special Programs "Bill Clough, one of the founders of the Outback program, thought that the student-faculty collaboration was a really great experience and started another program called Backward Bound. In this program, students worked with him to create a cabin using 19th century tools and techniques. You can see at the left the school's oxen team, Buck and Joe, and at the top right, Mr. Clough is cutting wood with a student. At the bottom is the finished cabin. Unfortunately it burned several years after it was built, but before it did, students and alumni used the cabin for solo camping experiences. Some of you know Mr. Henriques, who isn't here this year. He was the first person to camp in the cabin - he spent three weeks there in the middle of winter when the temperature didn't rise above 40 degrees at foot level, no matter how much wood was burnt in the stove." [School archivist Judith Solberg compiled and presented this material for the school assembly on 3/5/2003.]
