“When Canadian does something, we like to do it big!” Thus the EPIC Battle of the Books was born. Typically, CMS students participate in area and regional Battle of the Books meets.

Photos by John Moore The Canadian boys and girls teams both placed in the top five at the District 1-3A/2-3A Area track-and-field meet at Lubbock-Cooper on Wednesday afternoon. The Wildcats came in third place, totaling 78 points, while advancing a total of five individuals and two relay squads to the Region I-3A meet set for next Friday and Saturday in Abilene.

EDITOR’S NOTE: None of these mayoral or city council positions is contested. In its last meeting, the council certified the slate of declared candidates and canceled the May 1 election. Because two of the candidates will be new to this office, we believe that the public should know who they are and where they stand on some of the issues they will be expected to address once seated.

The tree was lying on its side when I got to it. It was a nice-looking pine tree, fluffy and full and as tall as me.
