Sponsored by Whitehall of Deerfield Hello, Dickinson Hall Members, I hope that you all had a relaxing and happy summer. September and October are my favorite months of the year. I love waking up to crisp mornings when it’s not too hot and not too cold. You can feel the season turning along with the color of the leaves and the promise and anticipation of the upcoming holiday season. This is also the time of year that Dickinson Hall staff are planning ahead for 2020.
