Dear CCS Alumni and Friends, lots of you are looking for this winter to end and looking forward to SPRING!!! But me?...... I am really looking forward to JULY!!! I have my plane ticket purchased and am counting the days.(148) I love getting out of the Mississippi heat and being in the cooler, less humid weather of the Cambridge Valley. I always get such a rush when I first drive around the bend in Route 22 (by Benson’s) and head north for Cambridge….Going home!! Even though I could take the short cut to Cousin Raz’s house, I always have to drive down Main Street first, just to check it out. I look forward to seeing old friends and new ones that I have made through the website, newsletter and Facebook page. The format of having all the classes there works out so well because, in such a small school, we had friends and relatives in other classes than our own. It is great being able to see them all. I hope that you are planning on being there!
The Alumni
Committee is working on the events for this year (See notice at the
bottom) as are the classes having banner years. If your class needs
help with organizing a reunion, finding classmates, promoting your
event or just have some questions, please contact me. I will help
as much as I can. Just remember, I reside in Mississippi so I have
trouble with the “leg work” ►In response to ideas for the 12th Annual All Classes Reunion
