The Blaze - 2013 by Cardigan Mountain School

THE CARDIGAN MISSION Cardigan Mountain School offers a close-knit community that prepares middle school boys - in mind, body, and spirit -- for responsible and meaningful lives in a global society.

CARDIGAN'S CORE VALUES 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.

COMPASSION We cherish the quality of kindness, asking each member of our community to “love thy neighbor as thyself,” and we embrace the importance of service for the greater good.

HONESTY We expect rigorous honesty in all dealings.

RESPECT We teach respect for all individuals, embracing an appreciation for diverse perspectives.

INTEGRITY We cultivate personal integrity, underscoring our commitment to “doing the right thing,” through community discussion, public example, and role modeling.

SCHOLARSHIP We instill a love of learning and promote intellectual curiosity and growth, recognizing that each person learns differently.

FAIRNESS We believe that all people deserve the opportunity to grow and develop, succeed and fail, in a safe environment that values intent, effort, and accomplishment free from bias and prejudice.

Thirds Football had a good season. We went from barely able to take snaps and run plays to running the plays perfectly and not being afraid of anything. We got along extremely well and functioned like one unit. We always backed each other up on the field and were willing to make huge changes to make our team better.

This year,-jthe Varsity Soccer^ Teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s SSison was one of hundreds of memories and great friendships. Our record was 8 wins, 4 losses, and 2 ties. Our most memorable win was a 1-0 victory over Eaglebrook (Cardigan hasn't beaten them in soccer for 13 years.) Throughout the season, we developed as a whole, and we never left anyone behind. When we lost the championship game to Eaglebrook, everyone shed a few tears, but I realized that our team was the most dedicated and hard working soccer team that I have ever been a part of.

This season for the Thirds Soccer Team was exceptional.The highlight was our first win against Holderness, which we won by one goal in a tough battle with bigger kids. Our coaches helped us improve physically and mentally every day. Individual accomplishments were Chris An and Juan Belvis scoring two goals in our CMS Jamboree and Gonch getting a shutout against Eaglebrook in the Jamboree as well. While we did not complete our goal of winning most of our games, we worked really hard and tried to improve everyday.

This fall's Mountain Bike Team was the best and most successful one this school has ever seen. Everyone competed well, and more importantly we made significant improvements. We competed in 8 Lakes Region races against 15 high schools and placed 2nd in the overall standings. We did very well on Eaglebrook day, where we took all 9 podiums.

This year's JV Mountain Biking team was very successful with an undefeated season with one win and zero losses. The most memorable moment of the season was when we had a ^ timed trail in the upper woods loop. At first we all were slower than we wanted to be, but on the second time through we had shaved at least 4 - 5 minutes off our time. Its great to see improvement.

Rock climbing is a fun, tiring and (kind-of) risky sport that the whole team enjoyed. Monday's we would boulder in the Cave working on technique, power and endurance; Tuesday's we would have a hard work out in the weight room; Wednesday's we would go off campus, most of the time to Quechee Gym, an indoor climbing gym. But when we got to go outside, we climbed hard. On the last day of Fall sports we went to Jimmy Cliff Iat Rumney. We climbed for hours on end and everyone did many fun pitches. Everyone Idid a particularly fun and challenging 5.10 route named Lonesome Dove, It is challenging because it consists of very small holds and takes alot of determination to complete.

Varsity Hockey Varsity Hockey had a good season with wins against such schools as Belmont Hill, Brewster Academy, Exeter and two wins against our rivals Eaglebrook. After the Northwood game Ben Finkelstein was heard to say, "A win is a win. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a lot of work to do next week before our Belmont Hill tournament." The following weekend at the Belmont Invitational, the Cougars had an overtime win against St. Sebastianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s putting them into the championship game against Belmont Hill. Although it was a great game in both ends of the ice with plenty of scoring chances, the cougars lost 2-1 in overtime.

The Thirds Hockey team had a good year, where many of the players had a lot of great moments on the ice. Morgan Himmer, as their netminder had several outstanding games, while their captain, Cedric Elkouh worked hard and scored goals when they were needed.

Jerry Wang put together three solid games in a row, ending with a win against Eaglebrook.

All the team members worked hard and showed improvement throughout their season.

R e s e rv e H o c & y Although the Reserve Hockey team started their season off with a loss, they made improvements throughout their games. Showing nervousness during several games by chasing the puck instead of holding their positions, the players always showed enthusiasm and spirit. Team captains Kastan Day and Billy Boyle led by example with energetic performances; and JR Kreuzburg and Tucker Powell always played with great enthusiasm. Goalie Joey Mayer was strong in goal regardless of the final scores. As their season moved on, the boys became more confident, established some good offensive pressure on their opponents, played good, sound hockey, and improved as a team.

The Varsity Basketball team had a great year. The Cougars played fantastic team basketball and utilized every person on the team. Defensive intensity, with talk and hustle, set the Cougars apart from many of their opponents; and this defense led to a great offense that seemingly could not ^ ^ miss shots. Dan Kitchei scored routinely^ ^ while Mohamed Bamba, Keaton Nichols and KJ Matte always had strong performances. Adonis Williams frequently showed off his remarkable passing skill, facilitating the offence by throwing those perfect M i passes. Adonis was . ... awarded the All-Tournament Team Prize for his outstanding performance during all the games of the NYC Boys Club Stars Tournament.

JV Basketball had a good year. The boys played tough defensive at times, forcing turnovers, and allowing the offense to take advantage to make the necessary shots. The inside trio of Jack Jiang, Sam Koh and Paul Kim were Leif Fosse '14 huge, scoring in the post and boxing out on the defense. Over their season, they played with intensity and heart; moved the ball quickly and effectively; and worked together to have a successful season.

‘ T h ire ls b ^ s K e t b ^ ll The Thirds Basketball season was a mix of success and disappointment. In many of their games they played strong defense and showed a lot of hustle. Tony Mezher, Andy Zhang and Tanner Boyle were always forces inside, pulling in rebounds, blocking shots, and controlling the lane. Bryan Chen as a stellar point guard, was a force in many games with key points, drivin| ttie lane to create scoring opportunities, and setting the tone for the Cougars’ h defense, so proud oH^fe way our gtiys rallied today,” said Coac|i Feeley after a tough defeat by Eaglebrook in overtime^ “The intensity they shc^Afed \ms impressive and b9|3^sfweil for the future.” ^

Reserve

With a mixed season, the Reserve Basketball team worked hard throughout to improve.Their first game of the season was a great learning experience for all. The boys continued to learn to control the ball on the offensive end and follow their man on the defensive end. They began to work together better as a team and the team's progress from the beginning of the season to the end was demonstrated in their ability to move the ball and find open space. Throughout, they always played with class and kept their heads high. The loss to Lebanon in January was a tough loss, but hands down this was the best game the Reserve squad ^played. It was a fun game to watch and the boys had a great time. The highlight of the game was the great team play; they supported each other on the defensive end and moved the bail around well on the offensive end.

Cougars Open Season with Solid Run at Sunapee it was a glorious day at IVIt. Sunapee for the first race of the Lalces Region season. The Cardigan ski team had been training since November so it was nice to finally show how hard the team worked to that point. CardigaQ put forth a great effort and finished second among five schools. Noah Drummond won the race, Walker Huff was third, and Emery Gray was seventh. The Cardigan Mountain School Junior Varsity Alpine Ski continued its unrivaled three-year undefeated streak- Nolan Feeley, who won the race, anchored the team. The rest of the JV team did exceedingly well as Alex Frenchman and Rex Krieg scored second and third place, respectively. It was a snowy rac^at Biackwater, as the Cardigan Mountain Cougars raced against two other schools. The Cougars took four of the top five spots. Noah Drummond was first, Walker Huff was second, Matt Harmon was fourth and Emery Gray was fifth. It was also an excellent day for the Junior Varsity program as Michael Chang ,\|yas the top finisher in first with Myles Beach right behind him in second. Seth Gray, a sixth grader, rounded out the podium in third. Rex Krieg was fourth, and sixth grader Juan Belvls wa%fifth.

This year the Cardigan Snowboarding team had both a fun am challenging season. Our coaches taught us different and new techniques that we could use to improve our performance while both competing and having fun. Diego and Jose earned some relatively high placings in GS races, and others members' persistence helped them to improve their skills. Although we went through some rough times and injuries, this past season was still incredibly fun, yet educational; and after ail, snowboarding is snowboarding, and we do it for fun!

F m m r r ws. Who won? Who really cares? We all had fun!

Annual ^um ni Hockey Came Each year, alums return to the Point to visit and participate in the Annual Alumni Hockey Game. The competition is fierce, but friendly!

Non Hockey Players vs. Reserve Hockey The Reserve Hockey team plays a final game against the club team Hockey for Non-Hockey Players. Both sides play with determination and show off the skills they have learned over the winter season. A fun time is had by all!

Mmute To win it Mr. Hannis’s efforts to fill the boys’ afternoons with fun and different activities in these “transition weeks” between winter and spring sports continued, when dorm vs. dorm action ensued in a “Minute-to-Wln-lt” battle of unusual talents. 15 dorm groups traveled to 15 stations, each of which was manned by a faculty member (who represented the dorm “sponsoring” that station’s idea) and each of which presented a challenge that one or two—or sometimes a few—students needed to achieve within a minute’s time (or in the best possible time in less than a minute) in order to earn their dormitory or floor some points. Traveling dorm parents ensured that every boy had a chance to try at least one or two of the challenges. Terrific dorm spirit was in evidence, for certain, as those not participating cheered on the others quite audibly!

Names of the stations included the following (for conversation purposes, we’ll let you ask your boys for clarification—or perhaps you will be able to deduce from the photos—what each challenge entailed!): “Lacrosse Pancake,” “On the Rebound,” “Sharp Shooter,” “Beach Pong,” “Flip Your Lid,” “Tilt-a-Cup,” “Shoe Fly Shoe,” “Pizza Box Ping Pong,” “Ping Pong Ball Relay,” “Baby Blockin’,” “Card House Structures,” “Tangrams,” “A Bit Dicey,” “Cup Stacking,” and, of course, “Hart’s Swing Ring Game.”

World Language Day

On a glorious February afternoon, devoid of wind yet full of wintry outdoor fun (and competitive indoor games), dorm was pitted against dorm in a number of “international games.” There were 12 total teams (as a few of the smaller dorms paired up to form teams comparable in size to the larger dorm floors), and there were six stations. One competition (i.e., one station) would last for about 15 minutes or so—with 5 additional minutes provided for travel time between stations.

The Scandinavian Snow Sculpture Contest provides the framework for snowy creativity.

If you haven’t seen Cardigan’s version of Sumo Wrestling, you don’t know what you’re missing!

The Roman Chariot Race has each dorm pulling its smallest, lightest member around a snowy oval track as quickly as possible.

The French Waiter Race is essentially a relay race, with a dining hall tray serving as the baton this year.

Canadian Broomball is played in the hockey rink, and even the most coordinated of ice hockey players find it difficult to control a fairly bouncy ball with their pretty thin, plastic “broomsticks.” And finally, there is the Spanish Green Tomato Tomatina Ball competition. Ok—essentially dodge ball played with...well... green and red dodge balls!.

Thursday afternoon I brings time for reflection. The Chapel program begins with the closing of the curtains by the Chaplain's assistants, Chi Kyu Lee and Peter Cleveland, who also are tasked with the readings for the week.

Mr. Grabil usually gives the Chapel talk. Sometimes a guest speaker, student or faculty member will give a talk on something that is important to them they wish to share with the school.

Music plays a large ' ||T T part of the Chapel *^ program. Grades and Comments, a faculty band frequently performs, while music classes led by Dr. Ledbetter also sing or play the chimes.

Perhaps the most amusing facet of a visit to this “museum” was the manner in which each figure finished imparting his story: With stilted motions, each would haltingly maneuver himself back into his original pose, stare blankly into space, and await the next push of a “button.”

“MATHCOUNTS” is a nationwide competition for middle school students. It begins at the school level, and then it progresses to the chapter, state, and national levels. The following students are members of Cardigan’s 2013 MATHCOUNTS Team: Chris An ’14, Xin Bi ’14, Michael Hong ’14, Henry Jung ’14, Josh Lee ’14, John Lee ’14, Bobbie Li ’14, Matteo Mangiardi ’14, John Trotto ’14, and Ray Xiao ’14.

Smart Market Top “Student Investors” Take a Relevant Journe\ On Tuesday, Jan. 15, several Cardigan students reaped the benefits of their stock-market analysis success. As members of the two CMS teams that were declared winners at the statewide $mart Market contest, Middle School Division victors Jeff Shi and Raymond Bai, as well as three seniors (Will Humphrey, Veo Chae, and Chris Alberigi) representing their larger High School Division team of five, received their prize in the form of a fieldtrip. Accompanied by their math teachers, Mr. Ramos and Mr. Harris, these “student investors” attended a reception at the Fidelity Investment Campus in Merrimack, N.H., which included a tour of the facility and an award ceremony/luncheon with the CEO and other executives. 76

Math Team Coach Harris reports that one of our intermediate teams finished in second place and our two junior teams placed first and second at the Twin State Math League competition in December, in addition, the following boys had perfect scores on the day: Henry Jung ’14, Jinwan Cho ’13, John Lee ’14, Josh Lee ’14 Xin Bi ’14, Andrew Mah ’15 Congratulations to the entire team, which included seniors Danny Lee, Chi Kyu Lee, Charlie Han, Jinwan Cho, James (Joo Sang) Lee, Brian Hwang, Brian Kim, Elijah Harris, Philip Parry, Matt Banks, Brandon Benson, Kastan Day, and Ted Mello; eighth graders Michael Hong, Josh Lee, John Lee, Chris An, Xin Bi, Raymond Bai, Henry Jung, and Tommy Mi; seventh graders Andrew Mah, Jeff Koo, and David Min; and sixth grader James Chun.

THEUUINC UiBORfn'ORy A group of preschool students gathered excitedly around the terrariums in the Bronfman hallway one day, as Mrs. Oliver’s seventh-grade science students explained the “Living Laboratory” to the young group and allowed them to experience firsthand the joy derived from caring for the many creatures therein.

HENT & ANTICIPATION

Two very fine spellers— at opposite ends of the grade-level spectrum— are responsible for putting this bee in the Cardigan record books; both are to be congratulated, not only for their spelling acumen, but also for their endurance! But before we spoil the ending, here’s how it ail began...

Jordan Abisch '13

Eighteen qualifying spellers (winners from English classes representing all four grades) squared off for the first of two annual schoolwide ^ spelling bees (the second occurring in spring each year), a ^ longstanding tradition at the School that is eagerly anticipated ^ by participants and audience members alike. Mr. Wennik, the English Department chair, set the tone for the evening, coaching the boys on the stage prior to the bee, and then . Mr. Hart presided, while Miss Young, Mr. Gray, and Mrs. Mr. Hart

(

McCusker served as officials. After what Mr. Hart termed a “freebie” round without elimination, the bee officially began, and quite quickly twelve boys were knocked out in the first three rounds, including one of our defending champs, leaving just six spellers in the fourth go-round: Matteo Mangiardi ’14, Kimi Mu ’14, Brian Yu ’13, the Slaughter brothers (Nicholas ’13 and Jacob ’16), and experienced statewide bee contender Jack Audett ’16.

Mrs. McCusker, Ms. Young, Mr. Gray

Joey Mayer '13

Propaganda, resistance, synonymous, and defensible hung up four of those six gamers at various points during the next three rounds, and soon we were down to just two. Brian Yu and Jack Audett made us forget time altogether, as they went back and forth on 44 more words. On several occasions, in fact, one would hiccup on a spelling, giving the other an opportunity to clinch but then he, too, would falter, and the alternating of correct spellings would resume, nailing words like unprincipled, incoherently, Jacob Slaughter '16 and impalpable. In the end, it came (perhaps ironically) down to the word precipice, which Jack conquered as his “winning word,” following Brian’s slight stumble on antiquarian. The crowd was on its fe e t-fo r both contestants, reallyafter this dramatic ending to a two-man battle that lasted an unthinkable 42 minutes (not including the first six rounds that had multiple contestants!); the community's appreciation was immense, and the finalists were gracious in their congratulating one another.

Riis year of seventh grade was great. In PEAKS, students learned about writing and academic honesty. In science, students explored life science from the DNA n cells to the ecosystems around the world. Seventh grade students had the pportunity to care for animals in the Living Laboratory, which was a real wild ime. Seventh grade English students focused on social commentary and writing or the 21st century, emphasizing precision and accuracy. History students earned about early American history through debates, imovies, and readin_g Drimary sources from these times. In world language students explored new cultures, expanding vocabulary and learning the habits of a strong language student. ESL students had the opportunity to spend more time working on grammar skills. In all math classes time was spent strengthening skills, expanding

understanding of how ]math impacts every "day life, and of course getting in the habit of showing all work. 87

b White Team (Ocho Blanco) n English, the boys read Of Mice And Men, Deep Survival, A Midsummer Night’s Dream nd To Kill A Mockingbird. In US history, students have studied from Reconstruction through he end of World War One, and will continue through present-day America. Some of the ighlights have been the Election of 1912 project, Socratic Seminars and our recent trench arfare reenactment. In PEAKS®, students learned about MLA citation and proper format, healthy environments, infectious diseases, tobacco, research skills and human reproduction ^ sexuality.In physical science, students spent the first half of the year learning introductory ^hy^s[cs and the second half exploring chemistry.______ ______________ 8 GR team has had a stellar year. They have been hard at work enjoying Cardigan life to its fullest. Actively pursuing Science with experiments that dazzle the brain, English brought classics to life, and they became explorers of History. The areas of growth seem countless! But, what has made the year great, are the boys themselves. Who can deny their sense of curiosity, and drive to grow into the young men they are!

eadership and citizenship. The teachers worked collaboratively to assignments across disciplines. Global Leadership encouraged ng to respect different perspectives, life experiences, and social iluated themselves as learners and leaders within their community, it the cellular and organismal levels, while mastering techniques four interrelated competencies of communication: speaking, jrrors are how we learn, and that context and culture influence ed a variety of texts from several genres to both analyze and

potential.

W u u tm The day I was elected to be my class' School Leader is still fresh in my mind. It was quite a rush and definitely an honor; but the position was much more then a status symbol. As School Leader, I have been adopted into a small, exclusive club of those who have been trusted by their fellow Cardiganians to act as a frontrunner, a role model, and most importantly, to be a friend. It is my responsibility to make sure that each and every student is able to reach his maximum potential and succeed socially, academically, and athletically. I love being able to connect so strongly with both the faculty and the students, and acting as a liaison between the two. But more then anything else, I act as a friend. I’m not “School leader” to my friends. I’m just Will, and that is what I strive to be. I was elected to this position because of who I was, and that is who I will continue to be. Last year’s School Leader, Hyungtae Kim, told me as soon as I was elected that by no means do I need to change to succeed at this position, as that is what I was elected for. And if I were to offer one piece of advice to next year’s School Leader, that would be It. Remember who you really are, and don’t change. That is what people like most about you. M M j™

U M m s n w m s ta m u Varsity Baseball had a fantastic season, with a record of 14-3-1. We emphasized our main goals of playing CHICKEN, executing our small ball style, and being "at our best" when we "played the best." Every player on the team contributed to our success, whether it was a big hit, a timeiy defensive play, a well-placed bunt, or a pitch to shut down the other team. Our biggest wins included avenging the only loss from last year (by beating Belmont Hill), beating the Vermont Academy varsity team, and coming back in the seventh to beat Phillips Exeter.

The JV Baseball team had a great season, ending with a record of 7-3. Our season started off stro nf even though we lost our first game to Vermont Academy. After that game we went on a six-game winning streak! Our team worked on getting better every day, with the perfect example being our two games against Vermont Adiftdemy. While we were unprepared and out-worked in the first game, by^^^second cine, the games was actually called off halfway through BecausQ^we 8-5!

Thirds baseball had a successful season. They were always positive and cheered for their team. They started the season with a win against Claremont Middle school with a score of 11 to 4. Our team improved every day with Coach Nakade's amazing pitching lessons and Coach Skelly's exceptional knowledge of the game. Our mantra, "Bounce Back," helped us with our 6-2-2 season. - Matt Wall

Reserve b^seb^ll The Reserve Baseball team had a successful season this spring, ending the year with a 2-2 record. The boys improved throughout the season. Some of the players on the team could barely catch the ball in the beginning, but eventually everyone gained the fundamental skills of the game, and we were able to get two victories. Our team goal was "everyone gets at least one hit," and we accomplished this. Our first hit of the season came from Luke Laurence, who successfully hit against a fast pitcher and got on first safely. Highlights include Bryan Chen's three-run home run, lefty-killer Gabe Moldenhauer pitching two games, and Mo Bamba setting his individual goal to get a home run every day. Although a number of our games were canceled, we still had a really fun season. - Kimi Mu

llarsity Lacrosse Varsity Lacrosse had a great season, as we were able to develop as players and as a team. Our goal of beating Eaglebrook was accomplished in each of our meetings with them. Our first encounter was a thriller. Down by three, we were able to come back with 30 seconds left when Gavin found the back of the net. Our second meeting was just as spectacular^nd we were able to pull off an amazing win. Our final meeting was at Cardigan, and once again we were victorious. It was the greatest feeling when everyone stormed the field! There is no better way for our seniors to end their Cardigan career than with a win over Eaglebrook. -- Avery Glass

,^1. The JV Lacrosse team had an excellent season with a record of 10-5. Our coaches helped us each day to work our hardest and improve as players and as a team. Our captains-Will Humphrey, Danny Lee, and Leif Fosse--had a tough job leading our team, but made us work hard in practice and got us pumped for our games. We had great goal-tending and goal support throughout our game, as well as great physical play from our ninth-grade mid-field line and defense from our long poles. During practices we worked on clearing drills, fast and slow breaks, and really developed as a team with our intramural games with the varsity team. - John Trotto

Thirds Lacrosse had a very good season this s|3rina.j^ |!^ Throughout the season we worked very hard as a team. Although we did not always win our games, we always tried our best to give our opponents a good match. We worked ^ together to accomplish our team goals, and we also had some great individual effort. For example, Joseph and Jake's great skills on attack, Veo's great leadership on the defensive end of the field, and our exceptional coaching from Coach Graves ' and Coach Kreuzburg. They taught us "to improve," the concept of "we," and to "honor the game." We had a great time on and off the field. We always helped and encouraged each other to try harder and to become better players every day. -- Javier Salomon

llarsitg lennis Varsity Tennis had a hunger and desire to win this year, and to make a comeback from our disappointing defeat by Eaglebrook last year. We wanted to dominate on the courts, and that is what we did. We won the league, we grabbed all four spots in the tournament, and most of all we went undefeated! Coach Rocha's competitiveness.

We played teams with different skill levels, both experienced and inexperienced. We had three goals: listening to instructions, improving core strength, and just getting the ball in.

We had an awesome season. From the Cougar Cave to the weight room to the rocl<s, we all really enjoyed our time. Many of us were returners to the sport and were pretty good, but some had never climbed before. Over the season the beginners became good and the returners got better. The whole season was nothing but success and improvement. Jacob completed one of the hardest problems on the wall, and all of us completed at least two new and difficult problems. We were able to go to an awesome new climbing gym and climbed some really cool mountains. We improved many of our sl<ills like balance, strength and confidence. -- Myles Shepard

Charles C. Gates Invention & Innovation Competition The competition was fierce as 6th, 7th and some 8th grade students demonstrated their inventions on Friday. Saturday, the finalists again showed off their work to the three judges: Mr. John Pfeifle P'86, P'89, Mr. Matthew Brightman '06, and Karl Hutter '92. The “immediate hit” acknowledgement went to Daniel Gutierrez ’15 & Juan Alvaro Gomez ’15 for their “Sponge for Back"; and Cedric Elkouh '15 for his “Hockey Tape Cutter.” Joseph Jordan '15 & Pablo De Saro '16 exhibited salesmanship that was so remarkable, the judges felt special acknowledgment was warranted.

Headmaster’s Day (temporarily renamed “Sav Frieze Day” this year, to honor the memory of a beloved friend to Cardigan—a long-serving trustee and past parent) was, in short, a blast. The boys had an opportunity in the morning to play in the Third Annual J. Dudley Clark Doubles Tournament (p.s. this year’s winners were seniors Agustin Cattoretti and Will Appleton) or use any of the open facilities (the student center, gym, weight room, etc.). The afternoon meant a “carnival lunch” (served on the Rymer Patio outside the Commons!), a 3-vs-3 soccer tournament on the upper tennis courts (which later also became a street hockey venue), waterfront play, (homemade) “slip’n’slide” action on the Back 40 hill, and all kinds of fun on numerous inflatable games/structures.
