Blue Devils: It's time to rise and shine! The final vote of the 2025 SAMMYS (Syracuse Area Music Awards) People's Choice Awards is here, and our community has made the final two in three out of four categories! Vote at the following link between now and March 2nd. One vote per IP Address per day, so your household internet connection is generally only going to be good for one vote each day. If additional members of your household would like to vote, cell data will reasonably be their best bet.

Day One Update: CHS Senior Billy Bernabe placed fifteenth out of a field of 66 competitors in Monday's Giant Slalom at the New York State Championships hosted by Gore Mountain. After an 18th place opening run, he went over three seconds quicker on the second run to move up the leaderboard. Onto day two and the slalom event! Good luck, and hit your marks out there!

It's always fun to look back.... because we're also looking forward to next week! If you enjoyed last year's production of "Oliver!", come join us for our 2025 production, "Mamma Mia!"

In art class with Miss Lis, McVille kindergarteners created "love monsters" inspired by the book “Love Monster and the Last Chocolate.” They were challenged to use complementary colors when making their design. Great job!

Join the Camden Clay Target Team as it gets ready to take aim at its second season! The team provides the opportunity to learn the ropes and compete in shooting sports in a safe, carefully supervised environment, with opportunities to advance to state and national championships! Signups will be held on February 26th and 27th in the Camden High School Cafeteria. They will be held from 6 to 8 PM each of those two nights. Please bring your student’s hunting license or hunting certificate. This opportunity is open to students in grades 9-12, including spring athletes! The team competes in regular season contests remotely, and holds practices at its home base, the Camden Rod and Gun Club. Please note that although this opportunity is available to students playing a spring sport, spring sports practices and games take precedence over the clay target club. If any conflicts arise, athletes should communicate with ​their coaches. A range safety course will be required for all new competitors, and will be held sometime in mid-March. Practices will begin at the end of March and will be held on Sundays until competitions begin, and then on Wednesday evenings once the team is in the competition season. Contact the CCSD Athletic Department with any questions.

Last night, the Mohawk Valley Jugglers cooperative ice hockey program played its Section III playoff opener. Unfortunately, the team took an 8-4 loss to Watertown IHC to end its campaign, but Camden High School senior Brodie Buckingham certainly made his last moments of high school hockey memorable. With just under a minute to play, the senior defenseman scored his first-ever varsity goal to finish off his high school hockey journey in style. Way to go Brodie! If your young hockey player wants the opportunity to play high school varsity hockey while still attending CHS, it is possible! Follow the Mohawk Valley Jugglers on Facebook to learn more about this combined program. Current CHS sophomore Evan Buckingham is the team's starting goaltender.

The brackets are out! Camden boys' basketball draws the twelfth seed in the 2025 Section III Class A tournament. They will hit the road to take on fifth-seeded South Jefferson in the round of 16 on Friday night, with tip time set for 6 PM. Let's go Blue Devils!

UPDATE: Student activities WILL be allowed to proceed today, including all basketball games. The JV and Varsity Boys' Basketball teams will be in action against Holland Patent tonight at home. JV starts at 5, Varsity at 6:30. If Boys' Varsity wins tonight, they can take what is believed to be their first league title since the 1956-57 season. The Varsity Girls' Basketball team will be at Holland Patent for a 6 PM tip. This is a Varsity only date. For all other scheduled activities, your respective advisors will have more information on their plans for the day.

The final four has begun in the SAMMYs People's Choice Awards! Vote for the Camden High School band here!
