All About Animals?
More Than A Costume Party
On Friday February 7, those who attended the CCHS basketball game were asked to dress like an animal to raise money for Heifer International charity. The money that was earned from selling items at the game went to the charity. About 120 dollars were raised at the event. For Spirit Week and the nature of the the charity those attending were encouraged to dress up like animals. The purpose of this event was for a lot more than a costume party though. It was to raise money to give animals to those who need them.
Also, Nathan Mulder, a senior on the basketball team was the first person in the history of the school to score one thousand points in their time. He achieved this on the game on Friday, and the it was announced to the audience. He said that he does not want to be remembered for “just my thousand points” but he wants to be remembered for the person he was.
It was an eventful game with a good cause that saw a record set. Hopefully the basketball season will end well for all of our teams and people will benefit from what was given.
