The 96th Eaglebrook Winter Carnival

Eaglebrook’s 96th Winter Carnival weekend was held from February 2 – February 3. Parents attended classes with their children on Friday, see photos from the class day here. The afternoon brought a concert from the Music Department featuring the string orchestra, the band, the jazz band, the chorus, the Eaglebrook Ad Libs, and piano soloists. See photos from the concert here.
 
After classes, the concert, and afternoon sports, many parents took in an evening performance of the 2018 Winter Carnival Play, Shakespeare’s “The Tempest”. Watch a scene where Trinculo, played by Nick M. ’18 and Stephano, played by Ethan C. ’18 are cajoled by the monster Caliban, played by Chris P. ’18 to take revenge on Prospero. See photos from the performance here
 
The morning of Winter Carnival dawned bright and cold. Up first was the cardboard sled race featuring Headmaster Andrew Chase’s sled, Eddie the Eagle, up against the winner of the cardboard sled design contest, a motorcycle sled called “Fatboy” built by Liam L.’20 and Ohm P.’20. This year the race was a bit lopsided, as Mr. Chase flew down the mountain in Eddie, leaving Fatboy in the dust. Watch the race here.
 
After the cardboard sled races, dorms participated in the three-legged race, the Klondike sled races, jack jumping, ski jumping, and giant slalom races to win points for their dorm. By the end of the morning, the winner of the Winter Carnival Cup was clear: Flagler House. Saturday afternoon was filled with athletic games and parent-teacher conferences.
