Dear Friends of Waynflete:

The Board of Trustees established the Drake Award in 1976 to honor members of the Emerson H. Drake family for their many years of outstanding service and generous support of Waynflete. The Award is presented annually to a member (or members) of the school community whose service is likewise exemplary and deserving of recognition.

The Board’s Committee on Trustees selects Drake Award recipients. The Committee considers individuals who inspire others to support Waynflete and its mission and who themselves have given years of outstanding service to the school. The guidelines state that current faculty, current staff, and current trustees may not be considered for the Award.

If you would like to recommend an individual (or couple) for this special honor, please indicate their name(s) on the form below. As part of your submission, please provide examples of the characteristics and actions that illustrate why they merit recognition. Visit http://wf-link.org/drake to view a list of previous recipients.

Nominations are due by March 1, 2019. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at csmith@verrilldana.com. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration.

Christopher Smith
President, Waynflete School Board of Trustees
