A FRIENDS LEGACY: the GONG!

Picture this: The tumult on the left side. A rifle shot evades the goalie. The exultation of a goal. The MUSIC OF VICTORY!

You can be part of all that. Better, you can be at the epicenter. The GONG has most recently supported the Boys Varsity Lacrosse and Soccer Teams. But there is no reason it can't expand its horizons to Field Hockey, Baseball, and Softball. Even Tennis.

The GONG arrived from California over 20 years ago. It has nourished the aspirations of three graduates of Friends School of Baltimore (whose names are scribed on the GONG itself). The surge of endorphins as the mallet crashes down is something you will remember all your days. Your graduate too can become part of the lore.

Stand and mallet included.

Lessons provided for free if necessary.

NOTE: Delivery to take place after final game of 2026 lacrosse season.

Take home a piece of College Park history! Genuine slat from the back of a seat from Cole Field House at the University of Maryland!

This is to join the Round Robin Writing Group for the month of November 2026.

Here's how it would work:

1. You commit to writing for 10 minutes every day during the month of November. EVERY day! (It's just 10 minutes. You can do it!) I'll provide prompts and you can use those to get creative juices flowing. Then just let whatever comes out comes out. No need for polished, perfect work. And if you don't want to use the prompts, no worries. You don't have to, but you still have to write!

2. Each week you will be partnered with a different person.

3. Each day you send your 10-minute piece by email to your partner and they send theirs to you. If you write for longer than 10 minutes, cool, but just send off what you got done in the first 10 minutes so we aren't exchanging novels :)

4. The following day you each do your daily 10-minute exercise and you also respond BRIEFLY to the piece they sent the day before. You only share positive encouragement. This response is VERY important - if you are not able to respond, please let me know and I can find an alternative way of doing the round robin for you. No constructive criticism :)

5. So it will actually be 15 minutes a day - 10 minutes for your writing and 5 more to read and respond to your partner's piece from the day before.

6. Each person gets two "pass days" over the 31 days, but we should all aim to write all 31 days.

7. Each week you'll get a new weekly partner and the weekly prompts.
