Sophomores stage a snowball fight

It started with a post.

“You all may be wondering why I have assembled you here,” Harrison Knapp ’16 wrote in the 120-person Facebook group. He went on to propose a “giant snowball fight,” wherein the entire sophomore class of boys would join him at the Winslow Dog Park to compete in a ice-cold war of capture-the-flag: snowball edition. Especially now that tomorrow is a snow day.

“Who is in?”

“I decided to have a snowball fight to have something fun to do on the day of the snow day (given we have one). I thought it would be a great way to bring the grade together,” Knapp said.  “I think it will go very well if everyone cooperates, and we will all have fun.”

The question still stands, however, on whether or not people will participate in the largest snowball fight the sophomore class has ever seen. Or maybe any class?

“I am definitely participating in the fight, but I’m banking on having a snow day,” said Daniel Brill ‘16, one of the many sophomores in the Facebook group. “I hope there is a big turnout, however because it is hard to tell if people will go.”

Will Dumke, Staff Writer
To Will Dumke ’16, Inklings has not only brought him the opportunity to inform the school on the news, but it has let him jump in the back of a car and film screaming seniors as they drive from one end of town to the other. Raking in thousands of views last year, Dumke put together a short video that gave a glimpse of what the tradition of Motorcade was like on the inside. This video was by far Dumke’s favorite piece of his from last year and he aspires to keep working on his videography skills this upcoming year. But he’s not only in it for the multimedia aspect. Dumke likes being a part of journalism because it allows him to get information out to the public quickly. He loves to write both news and sports stories because he enjoys giving the “quick pop” of information that the readers are interested in. However, if you don’t find Dumke hunched over a computer writing a story or editing a video, he could easily be practicing the piano or skiing down the slopes of a challenging mountain. He is a member of both the Staples jazz band and the Staples ski team and loves being a part of both. Over the summers, he spends his time either helping little kids learn how to sail or hanging out with his friends. Going into his second year on the Inklings staff, Dumke hopes to work on his creative writing and put together a collection of pieces that he’s proud of.
