Happy Thursday, EAGLE NATION!!!!!! Have a great, positive, and beautiful day. It is going to be a scorcher today, so make sure you stay cool and hydrated.  Surprise, surprise, more rain is moving in for the weekend.  Last night, we hosted our Athletic Wall of Fame, Milestones, and All-State Ceremony.  Congratulations to all our new members.  This afternoon and tomorrow afternoon, we have some members of our Track and Field Team competing at State Qualifiers.  Good Luck, Eagles.

We want to give a huge SHOUT OUT to our TRAP team, as they won the Hudson Falls Challenge for the second year in a row. Way to go, everyone!!!!!  We didn't have any information on the event to be able to post until last night.  See the highlights below, as it was an exciting day that came down to the last shot and a tie-breaker.  This year, Galway won the team event again after a tie with the Berlin Mountaineers. The tie breaker went to the highest score, which was Wyatt Mead with a 25 straight! Wyatt shot his perfect score on the last relay of the day, so in a nail-biter finish, Galway came out victorious!  

Fun fact of the day:   Snow White was the first Disney Princess to have a full-length movie. It was created way back in 1938.
