There should be some oases in this country where the love of tradition is fostered. Avon shall be one of these oases where, when Avonians return, they will find at least a semblance of permanence.

Update

As predicted, it is extremely difficult to carve out time for this project during school, especially these last few weeks of exams, comment-writing, etc.  The approaching Long Weekend does not offer much solace, inasmuch as I have a conference in Boston and need to prep about five weeks of A.P. World.
Still, there is news.  At its winter meeting, the Board approved the project, which means it is now "official."  I believe The History Press will be offering a formal contract, which would make things really official, but I have no idea at present what the nature of that contract will be.  I will be moving ahead prior to Spring Break in March; I simply cannot wait that long to get back to the Weekly News-Letter, and it may be that I'll be able to conduct an interview or two in February.  I do hope so.
