Dear CCS Alumni and Friends, hope everyone is having a safe and happy Labor Day Weekend….the last hooray of summer. Here in Mississippi, the temperatures pay no attention to the calendar so we are still stifling in the heat here. Sure do miss UPSTATE New York and Vermont in the Fall!!
Thanks to those who sent in some news for this newsletter. How about the rest of you? Do you have anything you wish to share? Remember, put your name, class year and where you are living now in the body of the email!!!

Frank Smith, Class of 76 Joy and I just returned to the Cambridge area after a 6 week trip out to the west and mid west. During the trip we attended the week long Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture in Oshkosh Wisconsin. While there, we presented a young lady (Karen Maurer) who was a participant in the Women Soar You Soar program the first annual $3500 scholarship to be awarded in memory of our daughter Morgan who lost her life in a small plane crash in May 2014. Prior to Morgan's death she was employed by Lockheed Martin where she was the Flying Qualities Lead Engineer for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. She loved mentoring young ladies through various programs especially the EAA, Women Soar You Soar program
To learn more about that program visit:

It's not as great as being there, but for those long-distance CCS alumni who couldn't attend, here's a photo from the top of the Ferris wheel at the just-concluded Washington County Fair. The aroma of kettle korn, cotton candy, and fried dough will always bring out your inner-child.
