Diabetes, allergies, and dragons. Oh my!
October 28, 2015
There is an abundance of clubs here at CP, we have everything from a knitting club to a lacrosse team and a film club to an automotive club. This year three new clubs have been added to the repertoire: the Dungeons & Dragons club, the food allergy support group, and the diabetes support group.
The two new support groups were both started by the school nurse, Karen Daniels. Both clubs meet in the library, the food allergy group on the first Tuesday of every month and the diabetes group meets on the first Thursday.
“I started these groups because some of these students were concerned they didn’t have the provisions they need,” said Daniels. “I wanted to create a place where they could get together and problem solve.”
In their meetings, the groups not only talk and provide counsel to one another, they work to establish new ways to make it easier for the school to provide for them. The food allergy support group is currently working towards getting a microwave installed in the cafeteria so that they can bring food that meets their dietary needs from home and heat it up to have a warm meal once lunch time rolls around. The group is also attempting to start up a food drive to provide food for the homeless community who have dietary restrictions.
“We want to start a gluten-free food drive for the homeless because some of these people are unable to get the food that they need because when people donate to them they usually supply pasta or other foods that have gluten,” Daniels said.
On the other end of the spectrum, a more entertainment based club is the Dungeons & Dragons, or D&D. The club was started by junior Darby Doran and sponsored by science teacher Allison Trueblood. Dungeons & Dragons is a tabletop role-playing adventure game in which players create a character and then as a group they go on a campaign, a quest to achieve a certain goal with challenges that are somewhat pre-decided.
“I had never played D&D before I started the club and I figured I would never get to unless I made a group for it,” Doran said. “We want it to be a group that anyone could join and play in easily.”
The group meets every Monday in Trueblood’s room, S101.
“For now we are just working on creating characters and we will start our first campaign in a few meetings,” Doran said. “Right now the club is mostly people who are new to the game so we’re trying to sort of walk everyone through the steps.”

Senior student director Mia Morneault says how much she’s enjoyed working with the cast and crew. “I am very proud of all the cast and crew who worked as hard on it as I have. A lot of people care about [this show],” Morneault said. “I have a lot of friends on the cast and on the crew, but I’ve also grown and gained friendships through the show, even as director where I may be a little more stricter than normal. And I am very grateful for everyone I’ve gotten to work with.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/DSC_0657-1200x800.jpg)

Kato’s painting is a political piece inspired by a photo of elementary schoolers in the street protesting against ICE. “I think it's also symbolic because they're surrounded by snow, which can represent ICE, and they are still marching,” Kato said. “[The kids] are not stopping until equality or justice is served, which I think is really important to represent and show.” Photo by John Pinion](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Screenshot-2026-03-26-114740.png)

Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

The varsity baseball team played in the bi-district round of playoffs against the Boerne Greyhounds April 30-May 2, where they won Game 1 6-4, lost Game 2 2-1 and won the last game 5-2, allowing them to advance to area. “Honestly, [my favorite] big moment that wasn't even part of my moment was Dom's grand slam,” Cuevas said. “That was a big game changer in Game 1 of round one that ultimately helped us win that game and even move on. It set the tone for the games after and has really impacted and sparked this whole playoff run.” Photo by Allie Tseng](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/allie-boerne00159-1200x800.jpg)
















![After he takes the handoff, senior running back Trae Hill runs down the field in search of a first down. Hill rushed for three touchdowns in the 43-36 loss against Frisco Wakeland last Friday, but the Timberwolves were eliminated from playoff contention. “[I’m] just happy I got to experience the game with my brothers,” Hill said. “I’m going to remember how close and how enjoyable everything was with these guys. They are my brothers for life. Just waking up and grinding together, and proving the naysayers wrong [was my favorite part].”
