Outstanding Alumni

LAUREN DELONG

Lauren is an alum of one of our first EDKP programs.  She is a graduate of HMHS and Emerson, and works for Comcast in Denver, CO.  Her mother, Ginny, was a founding member and the second president of the HCC Board of Trustees.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was founded in 1949 to find a cure for Leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, as well as to improve the quality of life of patients and their families. Team In Training began in 1988, raising funds for the society and training to run in the New York City Marathon. That initial effort raised $322,000. Lauren joined the Rocky Mountain Team In Training in June, 2007 and was one of the top ten fundraisers with $7400 of the $1.5 million that was raised nationwide for the Dublin Marathon. She ran with Sarah Gallagher's name on her jersey, another Haddonfielder, who sadly went into hospice care a few days before the race. Team In Training is the largest fund raising sports organization in the world, and coaches, mentors and trains members to participate in the sports events. Lauren plans to continue with TNT as a mentor and participant in her next event, the Denver marathon. For additional information on TNT, visit: www.teamintraining.org.

SLOAN & AMANDA FISK

Inseparable since their arrival within ten minutes of each other, on March 24, 1979,at Cooper Hospital,Sloan and Amanda are the children of the late Trevor A. Fisk and Mrs. Pamela Fisk and siblings of Eliot ( HMHS class of 1988) and Lloyd ( HMHS class of1989) 

The twins were among the first beneficiaries of Haddonfield Child Care, and their mother recalls feeling not only that they were safely and lovingly cared for and formed friendships that were to continue as they grew up,but also that the experience gave them a sense of independence which was to serve them well as adults. After graduating from HMHS, Sloan and Amanda proceeded to the University of Colorado at Boulder and Lafayette College respectively, from which Sloan gained a B.Sc. in Kinesiology and  Amanda a BA in German and Government.

While at Lafayette,Amanda joined ROTC and was commissioned upon her graduation.  After further training, she was stationed in Germany and deployed from there to Iraq, where she led a platoon to Baghdad with the invasion in 2004. Serving four years in the army, she was then accepted at California Western School of Law in San Diego,specializing in Sports and Entertainment Law, and will graduate in April 2008.

After graduating from U.C. Boulder, Sloan considered a career in physical therapy, working for Virtua Health System while continuing his studies.  Finally deciding to join the Army, he was accepted at Officer Training School and was commissioned with the oath administered by his sister, Captain Amanda Fisk.  Sloan returned from a 15 month tour of duty in Iraq in November 2007, a recipient of the Bronze Star. He is now stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina and expects to be deployed again in November2008, either to Iraq or Afghanistan.
