From the beginning of Catlin Gabel, the paddock has been the beating heart of campus life. Celebrations of Spring Festival, graduations, class projects, and everyday play and connection have been held inside its iconic white wood fence over the decades.

The time has come to restore the paddock, and we need your help!

The quintessential white fence is in need of substantive repair and the historic poplar trees that surrounded our beautiful paddock have reached the end of their life. During the pandemic, a tent and gravel were placed to provide necessary outdoor social and classroom space - it is time to return the grass!

We want the paddock to continue being a beloved and cherished place on campus held dear in so many hearts. We need your support to make this happen. We know you have many philanthropic priorities that span amazing organizations and causes. We hope Catlin Gabel can be one of the places you remember to give back to. All gifts, no matter the size, add up to help current and future generations have the same paddock you remember! Can we count on you for a gift today?
