Parent Meeting:  Remember the there will be a parent meeting at 10:15 on this day to update parents on important information about the entire 2006 CC season

Other Info:  The person who raises the most money will receive a gift certificate.  Raising the most money does not guarantee you a spot on the trip.  The top 14 boys and girls as determined by the coaches using the performances in the meets prior to the Queensberry Invitational will make-up the squad of student-athletes going on the trip. There will be a varsity and JV team for both the men’s and women’s teams, thus the maximum number for either gender will be 14.

*CC members please remember to thank all those that help us reach our goal of taking an overnight trip.
