Program: Tim Schwingle introduced Matt Birdsley, Principal of Challand Middle School to provide an update on the new addition at CMS.  The new addition is approximately 51,000 Square Feet and will house a new gymnasium as well as space to house the fine arts programs.  This additional space allows the CMS student athletes who have been practicing at Westwood to stay at CMS for practice which allows for students to finish earlier in the evening. It also allows for multiple games and practices to take place at the same time without the students having to travel off campus.   Sounds like a much needed addition.  Thanks Matt & Tim.
