community tliat prepares middle school boys - in mind, body, and spirit - for responsible and

meaningful lives in a global society.

To achieve our mission, we reward effort and accomplishment, helping each boy realize his academic,

physical, and personal potential through the integration of the following core values in all aspects of daily life.

T / r a d it i^ Hikt the beginning of the year, the new Cardigan boys, the >enior leaders, and new faculty woke up at four in the norning to climb a mountain. Still dozing off, we arrived at /lount Cardigan. Although it was a tough moment for some >f us due to our lack of hiking experience, we overcame our irst adversity in our Cardigan career and reached the top of i/lount Cardigan. Feeling a cool, light breeze, we waited >atientiy to see an amazing, beautiful sunrise, symbolizing he start of our Cardigan life. One amazing fact about this rear's group is that everyone reached the top before the iunrise, so all of us were able to see it.

"It's a fresh start of the year!" - Kevin Choi

Headmaster David McCusker, Jr. '80

What a privilege it is to live and work at Cardigan Mountain School. Our life together on The Point is "full and rich" with opportunities to learn and grow, as individuals and as a community. We have high standards here and clear expectations about what we value in terms of personal responsibility as well as guiding principles for a positive and healthy community. I am consistently impressed by how well we do to meet and exceed our ambitious goals. I'm convinced that we do so because we value and develop close personal relationships and place a great emphasis on having a lot of fun along the way.

Congratulations to one and all on another fantastic year on The Point.

Good luck to our 9th grade boys—you reflect so well on Cardigan Mountain Schooland I'm proud of all of you.

I Last year our team finished 3rd place in a league of 15 high j school teams. We are in the Lakes Region Mountain Bike Series ^League. Since we did well last year, but lost our fastest biker we ' set a goal of finishing in the top three this year. Kaston Day,Henry Cormier, and Cam Lee are three of our new, fastest riders and they helped us out alot. Our returners were Noah Drummond, Emery Gray, and JR Kreuzburg. We also got a new 7th grader named Luke Cuticelli.

Cur hi^hlkhtsWe had a nun^er of riders move up in thier speed classification. Each of the boys increased with their endurance and bike handiling skills. When Eaglebrook raced us at Procter we placed first and second, and swept one, two, and three in the B — classification.

Cur nr»oTtoFIDO: Forget It Drive On. IT = pain & suffering

Cur Te«i»m c lic i wellWe did far better than I thought we would. We had one of the top 3 teams in the league again.

The team chosen this year was a group of hard working guys willing to do whatever it took to win. Not only did we work hard but we also had fun on and off the field.Throughout the season we continued to work on what we felt we were weakest in, whether it was free kicks or one- touch passing. Highlights from this season included Josh Jordan's outstanding game against Belmont Hill, Juan Pablo Ortega's penalty kicks, and Sam Koh's absolutely beautiful snipe from 30 yards out in our game against Tilton. This year, I feel that our soccer team had a great season, and I am pretty sure my teammates would agree.

HOMECOMINGWhile we aren’t exactly sure to whom we should give credit for this, but we couldn’t have scripted better autumn “ambiance” for a fall Homecoming Weekend if we’d tried—with the warm(!) and brilliant sunshine, the cloudless

blue skies, the ubiquitous CMS green-and-white flags and banners, and those unique foliage colors just beginningto reveal themselves.

Page 31: The Blaze - 2012

Sporting the school spirit t-shirts "Strength and Honor" all our athletes did just that-competed with strength and honor.

Our soccer and cross-country both experienced mixed success in their contests against Eaglebrook. JV Soccer was able to celebrate a victory, and Reserve Soccer was proud of its 1-1 tie (though it should be noted that all

four of the soccer games were hard-fought and closely contested).

Despite some mild disappointment in the overall racing “team” results for Cross Country, Cardigan was able to boast a few individual highlights.

Our mighty mountain bikers saw five members of their team reach the podium “ two in the upper division, and a clean sweep of first, second, third in the lower division!

►ur Varsity and JV Football teams enjoyed a couple of sound center-stage victories over our friends from the south.

Athletic Director Ryan Frost noted, with an overall record on the day of 4-3-1, 3^it was our first autumn “overall victory” over our friendly rivals in some time!

Mountain DayOne new seventh grader reported to us that he’d been so excited when he finally reached the summit and was handed his lunch; but then he was informed there was another mountain to climb!

6th & 7th graders on Welch-Dickey

Gianni Leslie '12, Hunter Wluting '12

“There were tons of rocks to climb up and over,” one of the seniors explained.Seniors on top o f Osceola

“It (Moosilauke) was really hard,” one of them told us; “it took much longer than Fd imagined! But the views were incredible—it was totally worth it!”

32

As you may recall, Tuesday, September 27, was declared “Mountain Day,” which meant classes were suspended in favor of outdoor (uphill) adventures by grad«

The sixth and seventh graders tackled the double­humped Welch-Dickey. The eighth graders faced the challenge of Mount Moosilauke. And the ninth graders grappled with the sometimes-daunting Osceola. The sk; could not have been clearer, though, and the sun provided glorious warmth, so packs were light and

spirits and fellowship high.

JV llOCKKY

This JV Hockey season was nothing short of successful. We finished the season with 15 wins, 7 losses, and 1 tie. We had many memorable moments including Brandon Benson's score from the far blue line; and the battle of the brothers when Henry (Cardigan) and Charley (Hoiderness) Day faced off in our win over the Hoiderness team.

Coach Gauthier and Coach Wallach led us through this season with their diligence, challenging us with well-designed drills and game plans. The coaches emphasized small things.. 'You gotta move your feet', You gotta move the puck', or 'You gotta dump and chase.' We all learned how to sacrifice for the team whether it was getting a hit or giving a hit, or just simply constantly moving our feet." -- Chris Oh

This season, Thirds Basketball had a very exciting season. Many or our games were won by 1 point or lost by 1 point. Our team had all the components any team needed: Leo's leadership, Kimi Mu's beastly accurate jump shots and skillful layups and Paul Kim's strong rebounding. In our practices we worked hard and ran. We all learned alot, had a lot of fun and grew as basketball players. This season was mostly a success because we had Coach Feeley and Coach Beckwith to guide us through. -- Bobby Tanakulthon

This season, the Nordic Ski team spent more time at the CCB swimming pool and skating on the frozen lake for our training. We managed to practice at the base of Sunapee Ski area for three days just in time to participate in our first race of the season. We learned both classical and freestyle techniques in a hurry.

We improved our techniques and skills and developed more confidence in traversing uphill and downhill slopes on a pair of skinny skis. We want to thank Coach Markham and Coach Ramos for showing us how to ski and to have fun at the same time.- Tiger Zhang

iigenio Martinez ElizondoRecreational skiing and snowboarding had a wonderful season even though we had little snow. Ragged Mountain did a great job making snow so about three to four times a week all thirty- five of us loaded ourselves and our STUFF onto the bus for the thirty-five minute trip to the mountain. Snowboarders have begun to outnumber the skiers by more than two to one. It was a tight fit, but we managed without too much difficulty.The beginner skiers and snowboarders quickly got the hang of their respective modes of transportation and were up to the ’summit of the mountain in no time. We had a couple of injuries, which kept two boys off the mountain for most of the winter. But for the most part we all had a blast skiing and shredding in the warmer than average weather.

Turner Arena was abuzz with activity on Sunday, February 26, as Cardigan hosted alumni, family, and friends for the 25th Annual Alumni Hockey Game. Formerly a challenge

between the alumni and Cardigan’s varsity team, the game has now grown in popularity to allow alumni, coaches, and CMS seniors to make up two well-matched teams. This year’s game ended in a 13-11 victory for the Green team. After the game, the players, families,

and friends enjoyed the traditional post-game reception at Frieze House, where they were delighted to visit with Cardigan legends, “Coach” and Connie Marrion, and former first

couple, Norman and Beverly Wakely.

campus, the boys and faculty enjoyed a day on the slopes at Loon Monutain. Our annual Ski Holiday gave everyone ,the opportunity to unwind, relax and

have some fun either skiing, snowboarding, tubing, enjoying the

Tremendous cooperation, loads of encouragement, and a lot of camaraderiemarked the spirit of the afternoon.

Bear in mind that every student should be proud of his efforts and use his personal outcomes as a basis for comparison in the future, results against which he can measure his own growth.

Parents, students, faculty, and even board members got into the spirit of the evening with theirwestern attire. After the Initial mingling, bidding on the silent auction items and

a warm welcome from our own trail boss Mr. McCusker, everyone got serious and chowed down on fried chicken, pulled pork, baked beans, and cornbread. Following the meal, the live auction got underway. The many unique items offfered by faculty, parents and friends were met with very active and enthusiastic bidding.

Cardigan's curriculum is designed to support and challenge each student as the School prepares him for the demanding academic programs characteristic of the independent schools most graduates attend. Mastery of fundamental skills and exploration of content is emphasized in all disciplines.

The curriculum provides each student with instruction in all the core courses of English, history, mathematics, and science. Exposure to a number of other complementary subject areas including world languages (French, Spanish, or Latin) or BCE (Building Confidence in English), life skills, leadership, art, music, woodshop, and the Gates Invention and Innovation Competition rounds out the curriculum.

PEAKS (Personalized Education for the Acquisition of Knowledge & Skills®) helps students become better learners and self-advocates.

Advisory and Conference period enables our boys to talk one-to-one with their advisor or classroom teachers to get the help and support they may need to keep up with their work

The sixth grade family has been very busy learning and exploring!

The students started the year by creating a sixth grade country, Sixtheo. To help the students better understand our unit regarding Asia they traveled to the Hood Museum of Art in Hanover, NH to view the exhibits on Asian art and how it evolved over time. In November the students learned about the physics of motion in cars by creating their own pinewood derby automobiles. Thanks to Mr. Yelton, the students were able to race their cars on a state-of-the-art track in the classroom. The highlight of the fall term was an overnight trip to The Sargent Camp in Hancock, NH where the students had the opportunity to participate in various team building exercises while learning about science and nature. The sixth graders are anxiously awaiting their brook trout babies from the hatchery sometime in February. They are also looking forward to the annual Cape Cod excursion in April.

The seventh grade students have a busy and productive schedule. The usual classes in English, history, science, math and languages are often augmented with special events, projects and field trips.

/ In the fall, we journeyed to the Fort at Number Four in Charleston and learned about life in / colonial times, made our own butter, and watched a musket-firing demonstration. We also cleaned up roads in Canaan. In English and PEAKS, the boys grew as creative writers; the focus for the second

lalf of the year was expository writing. The seventh graders also participated in several special days, such "Cardigan Risk," where students created their own colonies and the Constitutional Convention, where 's created their own constitution for the Cardigan campus. In science, the Living Laboratory kept the

^ys busy, especially with the addition of over 100 mice! The year ended with frog-call surveys on the wild pack roads of Canaan, as well as a final very exciting field trip to explore the Upper Valley. We will volunteer at the local elementary school, sharing foreign languages with the children.

One-on-one help and support

From a Presidential Election in History (the choices: Roosevelt, Taft, or Wilson), to a new midterm exam format for Science that was exciting and innovative, the eighth grade students had some interesting classes.

In Science instead of a full-on sit-down test, more than half of this exann period consisted of an active experience that assessed students’ ability to follow instructions, to demonstrate their understanding of science laboratory experiments, to use what they’ve learned about basic physical science concepts, to use relevant computer (and calculator) applications, and to think critically and problem solve with teammates.For the U.S. presidential election of 1912, the students were required to “campaign” for that historical figure, to come up with an appropriate campaign poster, use their IMovie capability to create a commercial, and then have their “candidate” deliver a speech. The students (and anyone visiting the class to witness the final presentations) then voted for president based on the groups’ performances.

From the history research project to science experiments to leadership skills to independent study, the 9th grade students are learning about their abilities.

Mr. Kreuzburg’s ninth graders were grappling with some chemistry—specifically the energy in cells and the search for “ATP” molecules—which later culminated In exploding gum drops!Mr. Cook’s class discussed their project of comparing concurrent civilizations—those of the Assyrians, Hebrews, and the Akkadians, to be specific.Director of Communications, Mrs. Michelson, made a guest appearance in Mr. Cook’s ninth-grade history classes to share some of her extensive knowledge about Egypt. During the winter term all ninth grade students write their history research paper. This is a major project teaching not only history, but the research process as well.

Cardigan is more than a scliool. We are a caring community witli tine residential program at the core. The skills learned living with a roommate, dorm parents, floor leaders and other students are invaluable in helping students build personal relationships throughout their lives. Their dorm rooms are their home and quickly take on the personalities of each boy.

In the Hayward Dining Hall, family style dining provides the opportunity to for boys to sit with faculty members, their families, and boys they may not see in their classes or at sports and to carry on polite conversation. The dining hall is also the location for our many of special feasts, from Halloween to Christmas and to special buffet meals celebrating the many cultures represented at Cardigan.

Being School leader is like being ■ put on the main stage of Carnegie ■Hall facing a full house. I constantlyM have a churning feeling in my I stomach as I see all the people I waiting to see me perform. On the I private balcony, I see people like Imy advisor, the headmaster, and _even my parents as they elegantly BHHHHHHHHHHHH *await my entrance. The curtains feel as though they open abruptly, not giving me a chance to get my composure. I stare into the sea of people, who are all looking back. My heart rate increases and all I hear is that thumping, but I put on a brave smile and do what I have practiced to do all along.

It Is an amazIng opportunity and honor yet it also comes with

f accomplish, but I have learned so much from the experience V The hardest part of this honor is also the most fulfilling one. I

is balancing my emotions and the intention of the community M that can be so challenging. Although they are usually in |j*j unison, there are times that I want to be myself So if ever

faced with a similar situation, I recommend that you be yourself People elected you for who you are and not who you they think you could or should be.

Cardigan HymnLyrics by Robert C. Hopkins

To Cardigan, our favored school By nature's gifts benign- We raise our song of tiiankfulness For beauty wliich is tliine:For winter's snow,For afterglowWhen day fades into dreams Of goals toward which we all will strive To keep Thy faith alive;To keep Thy faith in us alive.Together we will strive.

As Cardigan is mirrored inOur crystal lake so clearMay we through life reflect Thy truthsAnd memories so dear;Of summer's green;Fall's colors bright;Of glimmering stars at night.God give us strength to carry on Through storm or weather fair The peace, vouchsafed by living here, For all the world to share. 129

JV BaseballWith a record of 10 wins and 2 losses, the JV Baseball team had a very successful season. Working hard together, the players showed their team spirit and dedication to their sport.

Well Done Boys!

In their final game against Eaglebrook, the Cougars were involved in a pretty tight game going into the fifth inning. Henry Day and J J Layton pitched well. With loaded bases in the fifth inning, Peter Cleveland came to the plate and lined a double down the right field line, scoring three runs and breaking the game open. There were quite a few highlights, each player contributed defensively or offensively. Well done boys!

This season the Reserve Baseball team was really fun, exciting and challenging. Our coaches taught us basic skitts and howlo play basebajl. Many of the members had never played before, but with help we got better. Highlights inctuded George Ouyang our awesome runner, Joey Mayer our catcher who could hustle to the ball before the runner could steal a base, our power hitters Mingo - Trevino and Jack Jiang, our pitchers Bryan Chen, Jake An, and Juan Pablo Velasco. Also, our outfielders and infielders did awesome work catching, throwing, and communicating with their teammates. We had an epic season!

Varsity LacrosseThe Varsity Lacrosse season was nothing short of successful. Everyone was encouraged to give their full effort at all times, which helped us to a 14-5 record. Our coaches taught discipline and toughness during every practice and that training carried over into our games. At all times we respected and listened to the extensive knowledge of our coaches. Our success is the result of learning from our mistakes early in our season.

This spring the JV Lacrosse season was a season to remember, from our highest points to our lowest moments, we were all there for each other. Our 10 wins and 7 losses were accomplished by striving for the best skills and the best efforts. Our season was great, our coaches incredible, and our players were awesome.

3rds / Resen/eOutside of the field we were known as Thirds and Reserve Lacrosse, but once we stepped on the field we were one! We played for each other and gave our best. We were successful with only two losses, both of them really close and tight games. We learned from our mistakes and always went out to win. We had three daily goals: be better than anyone thinks you can, make your teammates look like superstars, and finally and most importantly, honor the game.

Varsity Boys Lakes Region CliampionsOur Varsity Tennis team plays varsity secondary prep school teams, which means our players often find themselves up against juniors and seniors in high school. On May 22, the Varsity Tennis match put Cardigan up against New Hampton School for a Lakes Region showdown between these two top teams. The School gave the team, coached by Mr. D’Entremont and Mr. Rocha, a great send-off, and the team arrived at New Hampton early and warmed up well; there was no question that the team was ready to play. Quickly, the Cougars took a commanding lead in singles. Later, after fighting through some tough, close singles matches, Cardigan sealed the victory after singles, 5 matches to 1. The team also did well playing doubles, earning two out of three wins. This was a great team win all around, and it made for a terrific finish to an undefeated (10-0)Lakes Region season, thus sealing the Varsity Boys Lakes Region Championship Title for Cardigan!

CHARLES C. GATES INVENTION & INNOVATION COMPETITION

Gates students are charged with identifying a specific problem in the real world and coming up with a “functioning innovation or invention to solve [that] problem.” Learning to prepare a presentation is just one of many facets of the Gates Program. Teamwork is another; and creativity and hands-on productivity are still two others. And needless to say, the list goes on (organization, planning, design, technology, etc!). Perhaps we should add “perseverance” too!

Second place: Solar Shades Supreme by a seventh grade pair, Garrett Plekenpol and Patrick Roth.

First place was solo innovator Noah Drummond ’13, with the Easy Slide-on Trucks, a product so useful and marketable —and so ready to go to market, it also garnered the first patent nod for a Cardigan

I student in the Gates program! (This means Noah will receive assistance in taking his

"■'product through the patent process if he so :hooses!)

Fourth place: Advanced Recycling Trash Gan, by eighth graders Will Nearis, Paul Kim, and Andy Kim.

Third place: Kord Keeper by sixth graders Cedric Elkouh, Beckham Bayreuther, and Jonathan Schafer.

Senior Class Sunset ClimbAt the end of their Cardigan experience, the Seniors climb Mount Cardigan at sunset. At the top of the mountain, as they wait for the sun to set, they share stories of their time at CMS, they share memories and feelings about their friends and classmates, and they begin their farewells to a community that helped them find their own paths to their futures. The last few days with their friends will be hectic and over much too soon. This time at the top of the mountain is their time to appreciate all they have experienced

Goodbyes are always hard to say.
