Need to take a second to say Thank You 🙏 to the Man behind the Camera 📷 as Marion continues to provide residents an opportunity to watch the Girls 👧 Varsity Basketball 🏀 team play through Facebook.

Here’s to you, Young Man 👨

The public is invited to Hillsville Elementary gym this Sunday, January 21, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. to clap and cheer for Carroll County Special Olympics as they put on a free exhibition game (to prepare for the regional Special Olympics tournament at Virginia Tech). Doors open at 2 p.m.; opening ceremonies and introductions begin at 2:30. Each athlete will play several times and the program will finish with awards.

This is the first time the classic has been able to be held in four years; it was previously held at the middle school for a number of years, but is being held at the elementary school this year so that we can pack the gym. Backup snow date is Sunday, January 28.

 The CCHS website has been updated and the Swimming 🏊‍♂️ planned for tonight has been postponed. The list of events that need to be rescheduled continues to grow but its Safety First when it comes to our Student Athletes !

 Next event up is Wednesday evening when the Wrestling team is slated to close out their 🏡 portion of their regular season with a Tri-Meet on the Hill. We will keep you as posted as we can.
