Good morning RJ,

Are you a Casa Grande Union High School graduate? If so, you can show your school pride and reconnect with fellow Cougars at the multiclass reunion later this fall. The CG Union class of 1971 is planning a multiyear reunion, bringing former Cougars who graduated between 1960 and 1985 together to celebrate each other’s lives after high school.

Staying within Casa Grande city limits, some members of the Casa Grande Valley Elks Lodge were recently honored for their volunteer efforts. Three members were recognized for their contributions to Casa Grande youth as well as the countless hours of volunteer work for the organization’s Red Cross blood drives.

Finally, we end today in Coolidge, where Coolidge High School boys basketball coach Dave Glasgow announced that the school will be hosting its annual basketball camp next month. The camp is open to boys and girls going into third to tenth grade and will feature instruction from Glasgow himself, along with other members of the Coolidge basketball coaching staff.
