First Alumni Coed Nite a Success!

 

Team 1:  How did all the Leaf fans end up on one team?

The first ever Alumni Coed Nite was a great success with no teams shut out of championships and only a few no-shows.  Thanks to Janis (Headrick) Gartshore for suggesting this event; it allowed a number of alumni to attend who couldn't during the Alumni Day on Friday. Current CASS students were pretty impressed by the competitiveness of Alumni and their strategies.  Congrats to Team 2 who were the big winners with 6 championships.  Results are posted below and photos are in the album on the sidebar.

Sports Day in Canada Celebrated at CASS Coed Nite

The first ever Sports Day in Canada was celebrated last Friday at CASS with the first Coed Nite of the Year.  Bladderball, tug-of-war, crokinole, giant cup stacking, goal shooting, and Chinese table tennis were enjoyed by 24 coed couples with many championships awarded. 

Check us out at http://www.cbc.ca/sports/sportsday/photos/gallery.html?page=2, the photo gallery of CBC's Canada Sports Day!

Co-ed Night!!!

The first co-ed night of the year will be Friday September 17th.  Find a partner, get ready and sign-up.  Stay tuned.....this co-ed night will have a twist....you may even get to miss some school time!

CASS Stacks Up!

One hundred and three CASS students pitched in today to attempt a new Guinness World Record for "Most People Sport Stacking at Multiple Locations in One Day".  CASS was 1 of over 1500 schools registered with nearly 270 000 projected stackers from 26 different countries in an attempt to break last year's record of 222 560 stackers and meet the target this year of a quarter of a million.  In one hour, CASS's stackers did 223 'laps' of 6 up and down stacks of 12 cups for a total of 1358 stacks completed and 16 296 cups stacked!  This blew away our record last year of 60 participants with 12 000 cups stacked.  Gr. 10 student Ethan Stevens was once again the fastest stacker with a time of 4.68s for the 3-6-3 stack format, and Spencer McLeod stacked the most cups today doing 8.5 laps in per.3 and another 6 in per.4.  A Guinness World Record Verification sheet will be sent in and we will hear in a few weeks whether we helped set a new world record!

Sneak Preview

One of the new projects that has begun to develop since the inception of our new website has been a site dedicated to the CASS coaches.  The site is under construction and will be available when the majority of the information is up to date.  As a sneak preview, here is the coaching bio provided by Mr. White, one the CASS greats. 

Richard White was one of the original teachers that started here when CASS opened up, has since retired, and supply teaches to this day.  Mr. White played several sports and coached a midget basketball team when he was in grade 13.  During his time here at CASS, Mr. White coached the golf team, assisted the hockey team, and was an intramural house master for over 15 years.  When asked about his coaching highlights, Mr. White had this to say:

"The Knights and Panthers were very successful houses winning many intramural titles, often several semesters in a row.  The Knights and Panthers seldom won the individual titles, our success was based on participation.  My smartest contribution was identifying house stiks who were responsible for making sure the students participated.  I believe those stiks were among the very best.  It should be pointed out that we were successful with only four stiks a semester.

    I have many fond memories of competing with and against students and staff in intramurals.  One moment that stands out occurred on the final day of a spring semester. The standings were extremely close.  I had just begun a block IV history class when Charlie Cooke appeared at the door.  He announced that I had to participate in the swamp run if we ( the Panthers) wanted to win.  I did, and we did.  Thank you Charlie.

    I would like to acknowledge the contributions made by John Catterick (responsible for establishing the intramural program) as well as the members of the P.E. Department who have devoted hundreds of hours of their own time to the students and the intramural program.  The intramural program was and remains a significant aspect of CASS life."

Thank you Mr. White.

Guinness World Record at CASS....
