Turkey Trot

Please join us on Monday, November 20th at 10 am for Cameron’s annual Turkey Trot race.  Four students from each class, grades K-6, will be running their hearts out in hopes to win a turkey to bring home for Thanksgiving.  The Head Starters will be kicking off the event.  This is a year you won’t want to miss! 

Be on the lookout for a letter that will be sent home to the children running in the race with a reminder to dress appropriately for the weather and to wear sneakers.  Thank you for your continued support.


We are Grateful for a Great Cameron Community!

Thank you to all the parents, faculty and staff members that gave their time to help set up, serve up and clean up Cameron's Thanksgiving lunch.  This year was a great success!  We could not have done it without you.
