The new CHS Stadium Press Box is here! It was brought in by flatbed from Kentucky. It replaces an aging structure and will also allow staffing of games on the stadium field, and the multi-purpose field from the same facility!
The Blue Devils are back. Preseason football camp opened yesterday with an intense practice. Mark those calendars and join us for the 2024 Home Opener on Friday, September 6th as the Varsity takes on Schuylerville out of Section II. 7 PM kick.
Inside and out, the press box at the new varsity baseball field housed at Camden Middle School is beginning to take shape. We've been able to have some activity on the field this spring and summer, but this is where the project will really go to the next level with an operations level on the second floor, and the ability to run a concession stand adjacent to the stands on the first floor.
The field sports an artificial turf infield and natural grass outfield, and we will say from experience today that the outfield drainage is performing quite well with the substantial rain we've had in the past few days.
The Camden Girls' Soccer program had a watch party on Friday for the women's bronze medal match between Germany and Spain! They were treated to a thriller where Germany went ahead in the 64th minute, and had to withstand a stoppage time penalty from Spain to secure the win.

A message from the Camden Basketball Boosters:
ATTENTION ALL BASKETBALL ALUMNI!!!
The Camden Basketball Boosters have an exciting opportunity for all that have played on the court in the Camden High School gymnasium! As many of you may know, the basketball floor is being replaced. They will be selling the old floor in 16"x16" pieces for $20 each. If you are interested in purchasing a piece of the outgoing floor please send a message to the Camden Basketball Boosters Facebook page to reserve your piece! Please provide your last name to them, and the years you played varsity basketball. Time is limited for them to get pieces of the floor for this project so they need info by Friday July 12, 2024. The Boosters will provide more details (payment, delivery, etc), in the near future.
It may be July, but we still have a student-athlete competing for Camden! Garrett Wines '24 of the Camden High School Clay Target Team is out in Mason, Michigan to compete at the USA High School Clay Target League National Championships!
Good luck, Garrett!!
Blue Devils: Mark those calendars for sports registration and the start of practices! More info is coming soon from the Athletic Department!

Did you know we have varsity student-athletes competing in high school boys' ice hockey? It all happens through a regional co-op program called the Mohawk Valley Jugglers. The Jugglers are made up of players from about a dozen local schools, including Camden's Brodie and Evan Buckingham. These two student-athletes embody dedication to the sport, often travelling over 45 minutes for practice alone.
The program is largely a self-funded endeavor, and the sport can get expensive over time. If you're interested, you can support the team through their upcoming golf outing on August 2nd. In addition to golfers, they are also looking for raffle basket donors and sponsors.
For more information on this outing, or the Jugglers program, reach out to Megan Buckingham at mbuckingham@camdencsd.org.
Final score out of Malta, NY.
We are so very proud of what this team has accomplished this season, and how the standard of this program continues to escalate over time.
