Fellow WDHS grad from way back -- the area has changed A LOT since I grew up there.
I should have mentioned ,, i through in my Pom poms after 1 year ,, guess I knew even back then something was seriously wrong with politics in schools ,, came to Cali didn't learn my lesson , got into the modeling world , saw that horror , walked away from big cash ,, I'd rather walk through the woods eating peanut butter and jelly than be a part of that world
The politics in school was ridiculous when I was there. Always had been. But I’m going back to the debating the ‘92 election, listening to Rush on the bus, and watching Waco live in history class and getting in trouble for not keeping my mouth shut. (My politics were pretty much in place at a young age!)
The whole town was getting corrupt as hell though. I remember the back door deals with Shields and then Freeholder Sweeney to get Field of Dreams put in then their sweetheart typical NJ corruption for Riverwinds. My parents finally got out of WD a couple years ago so I have no real reason to go back there now.
Glad you were able to escape with little trauma (I hope). I’m with you. PB&J in the woods any day!!
You graduated west Deptford wow small world , I was a cheerleader for the Eagles
