This past Saturday night, we were able to put on our boots and cowboy hats for something other than a gymkhana event. Instead of going to the barns, everyone was showing up at the Pergola in flannels and jeans to enjoy our very own Thacher Southern Night! The activities included a cook-off, bobbing for corn, more »

Ready to Ballbirl
This weekend was the annual Ojai Tennis Tournament. College teams across California play one another and Thacher sophomores “ballbirl” or help out in other ways for the tournament. Fetching balls and watching some edge-of-your-seat tennis are traditions as old as time and a rite of passage for sophomores. Other than being a longstanding ritual, it’s more »
Weekend Activites: From Pentatonix to Diamond Hitch
This weekend has been so exciting for students on the Thacher campus! The Ojai Tennis Tournament was going on throughout Ojai and on campus, but other activities went on as well. This Friday night, our director of concerts and lectures, Mrs. Halsey, brought in Pentatonix to perform on our stage. It was so amazing to more »
Spirit week!
Spirit week is here, yay! Spirit week is probably one of the most fun times at Thacher, because while on the one hand we are in the midst of one of the longest stretches at Thacher, due to being between spring break and summer vacation, it’s also jam-packed with fun events and amazing activities.

Ultimate Frisbee
Usually, when the dark clouds begin to gather and roll in over the hills, I inwardly and selfishly hope that rain will not follow. However, as the rain came pouring down this weekend, I did not stay huddled up inside to keep dry and warm. Instead, I joined a group of my friends and two more »
March Update!
Things are going full blast here at Thacher. I’ve already had a performance at Cal Poly with the Chamber Singers (did I mention that I’m a member of the Chamber Singers yet? Oops!) and am setting up for one near Disneyland this weekend. Academically, the teachers continue to keep us challenged, but are helpful making more »
Patton’s Cabin
Patton’s cabin is a quaint, one room cabin in the middle of the Sespe wilderness. It is one of those places that the majority of the Thacher community has been to at one time or another, whether it be on an EDT or weekend camping trip. It is obvious that the small cabin holds many more »
A “slow” weekend.
By far one of my favorite things about Thacher would have to be the weekends, and while on the weekend schedule it might at first glance seem dull, a skilled Thacher student never has a dull weekend. Starting with things like sports games to work out sessions in the morning and early afternoon, followed by more »
Will you…
Will you go to Winter Formal with me? These eight words have been heard all over campus the past few days, sometimes accompanied with flowers, other times a sweet serenade, and other times a tray of cookies. At assembly last week indoor committee (our weekend event planners) announced an assigned date winter formal where the more »
Beyond Stage Fright
This past weekend on Saturday, the school had a coffee house event, which is basically a talent show, but with free coffee and other assorted hot drinks. I began playing guitar winter, and I love it. It’s so calming to sit down and play, and whenever I’m feeling sad, or stressed I play for a more »
