Softball one weekend, and baseball the next!

Mark your calendars for Saturday, May 9th as the Camden Blue Devils Baseball program presents the 2nd Annual Tom "Cat" Stevens Alumni Invitational!

Join us on Saturday as the Camden Blue Devils softball program presents its third annual "Swing Into Spring" Softball Invitational! With games all day at the JV and Varsity levels, a bake sale, and food trucks on site, it's a day of fun for the whole family!

Amidst a remarkable group of actors, a spot in the finals wasn't in the cards today. But the journey and the experience were a prize all their own. This weekend, Gage Grinnell got to live out a dream held by so many, but accomplished by so few. He studied in workshops at Julliard, saw a performance of the 2025 Tony Award winner for Best Musical, performed at Lincoln Center, and became the first Camden student in 33 years to reach this level of the National Shakespeare Competition. He has done so well by all that have come before him, and has set an incredible example for all who will follow in the CHS Drama Club and CHS Theater Classes. Way to go!

We have a new school record! Congratulations to Brenden Chennells on setting a new track and field program benchmark in the 400 Meter Hurdles, which he achieved on Friday at the Cahill Classic hosted by Sauquoit Valley! His time of 57.68 seconds broke the previous school record by .59 seconds, and was the winning time at the meet by nearly three seconds!

Brenden is a junior, but we'd also like to take a chance to tell you that Senior Day festivities for Track and Field will be held at Wednesday's home dual meet. Come on out!

Last week in Intro to Solid Modeling with Mr. Calkins, we also saw ongoing work taking place on the furniture for the upcoming "Senior Lounge" at CHS. Technology students have been working hard on the furniture components between other projects throughout the year. The pieces you see here are getting welded together to form table legs!

LIVE from Lincoln Center!

Today is Competition Day at the National Shakespeare Competition, and senior Gage Grinnell is at the center of the action! We'll share an update on the competition as soon as we get one today. Stay tuned!

Friday evening was a beautiful one for baseball, and the Camden varsity took advantage with a road matchup under the lights at Murnane Field in Utica. With the game on the line in the seventh, the Blue Devils scored three to pull ahead of Utica Notre Dame, and ultimately prevail by an 8-7 score.

Our 2026 Senior Spotlights continue with Drewe Griffin, Zachary Giarrusso, and Krystle Plummer!

Let's Talk Tech!

This week in Intro to Solid Modeling with Mr. Calkins, students are working on this steel flower sculpture project. The stem of the flower is built from a short length of 1/4 inch diameter steel rods. The petals, which are done in layers, are created with 20 gauge sheet steel that is cut out using tin snips. Six holes are tapped and drilled in each cutout, with the center providing a pilot for the stem, and the five additional holes providing extra separation between the petals to make them easier to adjust and manipulate. From there, students use pliers to bend the petals into their desired shape, and a coat of paint is applied. For a finishing touch, students are tasked with creating a base using leftover material of their choice.

The Camden Central School District Art Department is seeking donations for its annual art auction to be held at our K-12 art show on May 13th (Save that date, folks!) Donations do not need to be traditional visual art like drawings and paintings. Crafts like handmade jewelry, greeting cards, etc would be great donations too!
