Bengal Games was the idea of two former teachers, Middle School teacher Peter Amidon ’90, and Upper School teacher Chris Ryan. In 1998, Peter and Chris came together to create Bengal Games. In the words of Peter, the goal was to “bring the whole school together – students, teachers, administration, parents – to have fun and promote school spirit.” In 2003, Bengal Games became a way for the school to give back to the community. Seeking a sponsor for each super team, the sponsor would donate $1 for each point the team earned. This tradition has carried on to present day giving approximately $80,000 to area non-profits. Craig Head has been an advocate and leader since his early involvement in this special school event.
