Alice Baker Award The C. Alice Baker Award was established by the Executive Committee of the Alumni Association during Deerfield's Bicentennial to honor alumni and special friends of Deerfield for their loyal and devoted volunteer service to the school. It is named in honor of Charlotte Alice Baker, who attended the academy in the 1840s and became the founding president of the Alumni Association in 1901. In initiating this award it was the Executive Committee's wish to give public thanks to those dedicated individuals, such as class agents, reunion chairs and campaign volunteers whose quiet and steady day to day service is so instrumental to the success of the school. The first recipients of the C. Alice Baker Award were honored by decade during the Bicentennial Homecomings in 1997 and 1998. Since the Bicentennial, awards have been made at major receptions and the annual reunion celebration in June. Winners receive a personalized crystal bell inscribed with the motto, "For Loyal and Devoted Service".   Past C. Alice Baker Award Recipients: 2004 Philip R. (Sam) Chase '54 Gordon R.
