The Blaze - 2009 by Cardigan Mountain School

CrfrSigan? LEADERSHIP Everyone at Cardigan strives to become leaders. All across campus, there are roving leaders willing to show the Cardigan Way at any given time.

Cardigan is a school full of traditions. We take pride in ourselves and in continuing the traditions that have been established for 64 years. Cardigan Mountain School 62 Alumni Drive, Canaan NH 03741 603-523-4321 www.cardigan.org

New Opportunities...New Life Have Fun... Work hard

Cardigan offers opportunities for boys to grow both physically and mentally. Going to school away from home is not an easy thing to do, but Cardigan is worth it. Leadership opportunities, the Sandwich Fair, Headmaster's Day, sports, classwork and study times are all part of Cardigan life. Cardigan is a special place for boys to learn, play, grow, and create a way for the future.

The nicCuskers The school community is pleased to have the McCuskers as part of our school family for a second year. Mr. McCusker graduated from Cardigan in 1980 (check out the 1980 yearbook in the library!), and both Mr. and Mrs. McCusker were on the faculty in the early '90's before rejoining us again last year. The family is active in all aspects of campus life and they enjoy life in Frieze House with Buzzy, the chocolate lab. We appreciate all of their contributions to CMS!

Cardigan A thletics are an integral part o f student life. There are things students cannot learn in the classroom ; som e lessons belong un the fields. Victory is important, but sportmanship, honesty, com passion, im provem ent, and attitude are the traits that really count on the field. Cardigan takes great pride in our athletic program and that tradition successfully continued this fall. Every student was able to im prove in their sport whether they were playing for the first tim e or striving to becom e a professional. B oys gained skills that they w ill be able to take to the next level.

Congratulations to the award winnersm and to all who participated in fall sports.

Mountain Day Let's Climb Cardigan Mountain School is located in the "foothills" o f the White Mountains. We have to take advantage o f the climbing opportunities, right? So, in addition to the traditional Cardigan Mountain chmbs, we take a day off from classes to tackle some really challenging peaks. The three mountains that vv'e climb are W elsh-Dickey for the 6th and 7th grades, Moosilauke for the 8th grade, and Osceola for the 9th grade. Hooray for layered clothing, good hiking boots, box lunches and steep slopes!

Lake Run! 5 Miles to Glory!

Running the Lake Run has been a Cardigan tradition for many years. This year there were many participants who were eager and enthusiastic about the run. For some, the goal was tc finish in the top 50 and enjoy the reward of a pizza dinner, or to beat Mrs. McCusker, a fantastic runner, to win the grand candy prize. For many, this was a spiritual run; testing themselves to finish within a certain time, to beat their friends, or even to just keep running the whole way. Many ran and accomplished their goals. Congratulations to all who participated! i WHAT A RUN! 38

Winter at ,

V ..

Winter has a tendancy to arrive early and leave late in this part of the country. There are bitter cold mornings as you make your way to class and frigid, starry nights as you make your way back to your room from the library. The scenery around us can be breathtakingly beautiful or just drab and gray, but either way, Cardigan students have learned to make the most of it. We layer our clothes, burrow in to a cozy spot, but most of all, we get outdoors and enjoy winter. We get so used to the cold that we go around in sweatshirts when it is 0 degrees out (see mom, no hats, no gloves!). Hockey is played on the outdoor rink at Microburst Arena, alpine skiers hit the slopes, nordic skiers traverse the trails and we all take a moment to appreciate the sunrise over Cardigan Mountain on our way to first period class (see photo at right!). Winter is what makes us hardy, what makes us appreciate the other seasons of the year, what makes us Cardigan! You have to be tough to survive a winter here!

The Varsity Hockey team had the opportunity to travel to Finland this year during March break, where they played a lot of hockey against various Finnish teams, including "The Old Boys," as well as attending classes at Vehkoja School (and other nearby schools), going to a disco night (and meeting many new adoring fans), and learning about the host city of Hyvinkaa and the nearby city of Helsinki. Saunas, "Iron Man" contests, Ahmat hockey club opponents, Hannu Lignell, a Finnish National League play-off game and many more people and events will be fondly remembered.

{Class}

Awards So, what do your classmates really M nk of you? Are you famous or infamous? Will you be awarded honor or ignominy? Check out the superlatives of the class of 2009. Bythe way, you are a// very special! ;D

{Best} Paul Pettengill is most likely to help the other fellow (In this case. Hayden Berry. 6th grade; "lift while you climb") Benson Fu is always the first with a smile.

Aaron Rodriguez clutches his award while signing autographs, he is "most likely to be a celebrity." Class Brain is David Pluhar. Nik Nugnes is "Mr. Cardigan". Alex Banfield has the messiest room, David LeBreton is going to be the most loyal alum (with Ms, Jarosiewicz. Director of Alumni Events).

A aron R odriguez has the besi sense ol'humor; here he is cracking up6lh graders Charlie Day. Declyn Thornton and Jonalhsm Tufty. C h a d Rogers is most musical. Colin M cC usker won the award for the cleanest room. J o n P h a n e u f is the most cheerful. Nick Funnel! is most likely lo succeed. Nik NugneÂŤ5 is most heroic (thanks, Dickraan!) Kric W ollrath is most gullible (Nugnes says.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Tdric, your award is on the ceiling!")

Doel Jarosiewicz is most artistic. Nicky Funnell is most likely to return to Cardigan as a teacher. Akash Bharwani is most quiet (or at least he used to be!). Josh Dickman is most athletic and quite possibly the anti-hero. Russell McGillivray (not pictured) was named most likely to stay up past lights out.

Dr. Ledbetter provides the^)pportunity for aH Cardigan boys to experience playing in an ensemble or singing, while he writes and arranges pieces for the ensembles to perform under his direction. Dr. Ledbetter teaches every student in .. the school at one time or other during the school year (that is a lot of comments to write!). The students him best for his wacky sense of humoG kindness, patience, the 'T eam 1-Team 2" game in music class, and fanatical foljiawing of the Penguins and Steelers.

Dr. Ledbetter is truly a composer in residence; he has had pieces performed by orchestras and chamber groups in the United States, Japan, Turkey, and Hungary.

In Loving Mennory o f

Joe Collins Joseph M. Collins (1926-2009), Assistant Headmaster Emeritus Joseph "Joe" Collins, beloved member of the Cardigan community, will always be remembered as a wise, caring, patient man. He filled many roles here before "retiring" in 1988, including assistant headmaster, director of studies, and dean of students. In the twenty years following his retirement, Joe and his wife Ginny continued to drive from their home in Lyman, NH to campus twice a week. Joe loved to listen, counsel, and advise boys in all aspects of their lives. He was a second father or grandfather to many boys and faculty members who appreciated his approachability, calm . demeanor and sage advice. He will be greatly missed. Mrs. Collins shared these letters she received from students (quoted in part): "Mr. Collins had a great and profound impact on my life at Cardigan Mountain School. Connecting with Mr. Collins was special to me because I lost all of my grandparents when I was young. I never fully grasped the relationship that most people share with their grandparents. However, talking and sharing feelings with Mr. Collins may be as close as I ever get. W henever I wanted to speak with someone about how I was feeling, Mr. Collins was there, sitting on the Bronfman bench, just waiting to advise and share his Insight with me. I consider myself extremely lucky to have known Mr. Collins and shared a close relationship with him." "Mr. Collins was truly loved here at Cardigan and sen/ed many of us students as an outstanding mentor. It will take some getting used to to not see his friendly face while walking from class to class. We all miss him." "Mr. Collins has been like a grandfather to alt of us. He was always there when people needed help. He was willing to listen to what you had to say and he had good suggestions for what you should do next time. He is a person I want to be like.
