Several alumni have met their significant other on the trail. Here are a few:

Ben ’01 and Lara Krigel Pabst ’01 — They have three children, Norah, Rhys and Harry.

Derek ’03 and Charlotte Smith Supple ’05 — Derek was a counselor and co-chair of PWild his junior year, when Charlotte was a freshman camper, though they were not in the same region. They got to know each other when Charlotte became a counselor in the fall quarter of her freshman year. They have two children, Winona and Evangeline.

Kevin ’03 and Kristin Weber Silverman ’03 — They started dating after they were counselors on a PWild trip to Kentucky in September 2001. They were married in August 2007 and have two children, Avery and Henry. “ I have a soft spot in my heart for PWild,” says Kevin, who was co-chair of the program for two years.

Molly Larsen Korsch ’03 and Matt ’04, ’10 MBA

Lauren Holliday ’06 and Pete Fillman ’07 — They met as freshman campers on PWild. Pete was sick on the trip, so toward the end Lauren carried a tarp for him. Their wedding is planned for Sept. 12 in Boston.
