Our thanks go out to Cherokee DOT for their long hours and hard work during our recent inclement weather.  They do a great job keeping our roadways clear and safe!

CONGRATULATIONS BRAVES!

Congratulations to the CMS Girls’ Basketball Team on their undefeated season.  Congratulations also to the CMS Boys’ Basketball Team for their 12-2 season.  The CMS Girls won their first game in the Smoky Mountain Conference Tournament by defeating Murphy 74-19.  The CMS Boys’ game was cancelled due to the weather.

TRIP TO LOUISVILLE

Anyone interested in taking a Boys Club bus to Louisville to watch the Lady Cardinals play a game?  If so, please contact Allan Oocumma or Albert Arch at 497-9101.  If enough interest is generated, efforts will be made to put a trip together.  The tentative game date is Sunday, Feb. 23.  The game begins at 3p.m. against Rutgers.  This would be an excellent opportunity to support our fellow native students (the Schimmel sisters) who play for Louisville.

This date was changed from Feb. 2 to Feb. 23 due to the 2nd being Super Bowl Sunday!
