From Class Contact Lou Berner ’82:
Let’s get together! I have run into a few Overlake alumni recently and we agreed to do more to see each other on a regular basis. As promised to Nick, Karen, Jimmy, and others: let’s get everyone from Overlake classes of 1980 – 1985 to meet up during the summer concerts at St. Edward State Park off of Juanita Drive.
Free concerts in St. Edward State Park at 6-pm every Thursday in July and August. Free parking, great music, and lots of open space to play at one of the best playgrounds in the area. Bring your family – kids and dogs are welcome – load up the cooler, dust off that picnic basket, and enjoy the evening with friends. Eight dates in all.
Call the Overlake faculty members you can locate and encourage them to come, too.
See you there!
Lou Berner & family

From Overlake Librarian Rebecca Moore on the Library blog…
“As most of you probably know, Head Librarian Cheryl Steele is retiring at the end of this year. I have worked with Cheryl for five years, and have enjoyed every minute. Cheryl is a consummate professional who effortlessly has her finger on the pulse of both her field and her school, and employs a global view of librarianship to plan for the future. She is a super-stealth leader, treats her colleagues as the professionals they are, and is always a serene presence in the midst of chaos. She charms everyone she meets, and we will miss her greatly next year. Many thanks, Cheryl, and best wishes for a retirement full of relaxation and adventure!”

Crews are doing lots of work inside the new TLC, including painting and installing ceiling tile, and the lightweight concrete slab will be poured at the beginning of the week, project manager Liz LeRoy reports. They’re also installing mechanical ductwork and electrical work throughout and coordinating boiler delivery. They’ve begun scheduling the commissioning/starting up of the mechanical equipment.
The exterior stucco work is finished, the horizontal siding is almost done and the building’s red color now shows. As you can see in the picture the solar panels have been installed on the roof, but they’re not yet connected to power. Workers will transfer over the electrical transformer on March 18, but it won’t interrupt service since all of the new work is already done.
They’ll finish the siding and the painting at the end of the week, and take down the scaffolding soon after, when the contractor may begin the fine grading around the building.
