As part of its weekly spotlight on area weddings, The Philadelphia Inquirer highlighted a ceremony at Grey Towers Castle between Allison Watman and Eric Belcher, son of former Professor of History Dr. Gerald L. Belcher, who passed away in 1991.
A graduate of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College, Eric Belcher frequently explored Grey Towers Castle as a child and chose the location for the wedding as a tribute to his father. Both Belcher and Watman are professional jugglers.
Every year, Arcadia names an award in Dr. Belcher’s honor at Honors Convocation to undergraduates who demonstrate excellence in analytical written discourse.
