Today, March 7th, is the final day of National School Social Work Week for 2026, so we leave you a reminder that we have one of the best around up at CHS! Earlier this school year, the one and only Michelle Mellon was honored as the New York State School Social Worker of the Year, and we thought this was a good time to pull this story back into your timeline.

Another production "Easter Egg" for you today. You probably observed the large monument as part of the set for the town of "Ashton" in Big Fish. Take a closer look at the inscription, and you'll notice a few familiar names got put on there.
We have four bowlers still in the mix as day two begins at the Section III Individual Shootout!
Alex Lallier, Braylon Lyke, Ayden Gerow, and Pietra Van der Werff advanced to this point by placing in the top 50 percent of bowlers from the first round, and today, they bowl three more games and vie for the opportunity to compete as individuals at the upcoming state championship! The top six competitors in Divisions I and II for boys and girls will advance as Section III's representatives.
After one day of competition, Gerow leads the Division II boys field, while Lyke (10th) and Lallier (11th) also remain in contention. In girls' competition, Van der Werff sits in tenth position at the moment and will look to climb into a qualifying position.
Let's go Blue Devils!
So, there was a "Giant" reason for one of our characters to use that walking stick we told you about last week. CHS Freshman Zeke Henderson played the massive role of Karl the Giant in "Big Fish", and his lines were only part of the act. The vast majority of his time on stage was spent on these special stilts pictured here.
Check back tomorrow and we'll show you another fun detail from the production!

What a weekend! We hope you had the opportunity to see our incredible CHS students and our outstanding production staff shine in our 2026 CHS Musical Production "Big Fish"!
We laughed together, we cried together, and most importantly, this story brought us all together.
If you liked what you saw from this group, join us on May 8th and 9th for our Spring Play production, "The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood", where you'll see many of the same cast and crew members in an entirely new story!

Today's the day. Two Blue Devils hit the mat in the 2026 NYSPHSAA Girls' Wrestling Championships at Albany's MVP Arena! Wrestling starts at 9:30, but you'll need to keep an eye on the mat assignments to see when our student-athletes will compete, as it's dependent on the pace of other matches taking place.
Sophomore Rylie Meagher is the 7th seed in the 120 bracket. She will battle Isabella Juliano of Bay Shore in bout #39.
Senior Astro Johnson is unseeded at 185, and will meet Bethlehem's Charleigh Eick in Bout 95.

Across theatre and sports, it's a busy weekend in Blue Devil country. Amidst the flurry of challenges and opportunities ahead, you may not find anyone quite as busy as CHS senior Gage Grinnell. On Friday, Gage and the CHS Musical Cast open their production of "Big Fish" with a 7 PM performance, where he is starring in the lead male role as storyteller extraordinaire Edward Bloom.
That seems busy enough for one day, but on Saturday, it all goes up a notch. On Saturday morning, Gage will briefly switch characters - and eras - as he takes part in the Syracuse Regional Shakespeare Competition hosted by the Syracuse Branch of the English Speaking Union. As Camden's school-wide champion, he will perform a Shakespearean Monologue, and a Shakespearean Sonnet for the judges. The winner advances to the national competition in New York City.
Once the competition is complete, he will head back to Camden for two more "Big Fish" performances. A 2 PM matinee, and a 7:30 PM concluding performance.
Whether it's on our stage, or at Syracuse Stage, best of luck this weekend from all of us!
