Whether it was human bowling, musical chairs, a makeshift rodeo, tug of war, football game, or a 4x100 meter track relay featuring pepperoni in place of your everyday aluminum baton, our student-athletes certainly made PepFest 2024 memorable with some great skits! The afternoon also featured performances by the CHS Cheerleaders and CHS Choir, along with the unveiling of the senior superlatives to the student body. Let's go Blue!

It's a Bird.... it's a Plane.... Actually, it's the varsity boys' soccer team during spirit week! They'll look to come out flying in their next match at Oneida on Tuesday!

The Camden Varsity Cross Country program recognized its eight seniors ahead of Wednesday's home meet at the Osceola Ski and Sport Resort. Congratulations to the following members of the Camden XC Class of 2025: Ari Levin, Elijah Jackson, Billy Bernabe, Jacob Lago, Jayden Osborne, Dylan Poole, Urion Conley, and Xander Seymour!

We're looking forward to a great day of homecoming events on Saturday!

Last night was Senior Night for the Camden Girls Varsity Soccer Class of 2025! Before their match against Canastota, the Blue Devils recognized seniors Ellie Hite, Samantha Barrett, Katie Phelps, Olivia Hooker for their contributions to the program. While the Blue Devils fell 1-0, it wasn't for any lack of a fantastic soccer match. Goalkeeper Oliviana Christmas stopped 12 of 13 for Camden, and the Blue Devils forced Canastota keeper Mackenzi Stevens to make 12 saves at her end of the field to stay ahead. Camden will be at VVS on Thursday night.

The Camden Girls' Varsity Soccer Class of 2025 gets its time to shine tonight. Senior Night will feature a 6:30 kickoff against Canastota. Arrive early so you can be there as we recognize our seniors prior to the match!

Friday night was a memorable night, and fittingly, it was dedicated to someone who made so many Friday nights memorable for the Camden community. During the football game against Homer, we held a special recognition ceremony in memory of legendary community fixture Donald "Pops" VanDresar, who passed away in June at 92 years of age. Many of those 92 years were spent as a devoted member of our community, including a tremendous half century-long run as the public address announcer for Blue Devil football games. Whether it was on the microphone, through philanthropic endeavors, his work with local civic organizations, or his service to our country in the United States Navy, "Pops" was a man who had a knack for helping others, and through those efforts, made our community better every single day. We are lucky that he chose Camden to call home for so many years. In that spirit, we are pleased to say that going forward, the newly-added press box at the Camden High School stadium will be known as the Donald "Pops" VanDresar Press Box. Signage will be put in place soon. We were fortunate to host a huge contingent from his family during Friday's ceremony, led by his wife of 64 years, Dolores. Thank you all for coming to celebrate his life with us, alongside so many individuals that have been impacted by his commitment and dedication to Camden. Full story to follow.
