| Olney snowfort. If you look hard, you can see the circa 1910 Hutton House in the background. |
When I saw a snow fort on the Olney campus, built by teacher and alum Jamie Zavitz and students, it captured my imagination, and I couldn't help but think of a book I read as a child:
That book really makes you want to build a snow fort. So I was delighted to see one at Olney. It made me wish I had gone to the school.
According to the web, The Wonderful Winter Secret was published in 1931, but I remember it having a pre-World War I feeling.
Whatever the date, there's a timeless quality to a snow fort, which seems to fit Olney.
