Honor your grad, teacher, or coach! The three major phases of CC at Play’s fields renovation project at CCHS are complete and all our spring and fall sports are benefiting: baseball, softball, lacrosse, cross country, track & field, soccer, football, and field hockey. The project has been a huge success. This summer, CC at Play will put finishing touches onto the project. They plan to build a maintenance building, add way finding signage, and install landscaping at the entrances. To fund this final phase of work, they are selling engraved bricks that will pave the area around the new flagpole in the stadium. These bricks are a great way to honor a graduate, celebrate a team, thank a coach or teacher, or celebrate an alum. Bricks can be purchased at www.CCatPlay.org.
