Cameron’s family have been able to read what is posted on Cameron’s Facebook Wall, but since they don’t have access to Cameron’s account, some of what is written may scroll out of view. That is why we have added a new section to the Staples Swimming site: the Cameron Bruce Memorial Blog, a forum for Cameron’s friends to share thoughts and memories. The blog works like a “Wall” on Facebook. You can write messages and reply to messages from others. If you comment on the opening message, you’ll be asked to supply your name and e-mail address. Once you have been authorized as a member of the Memorial Blog, you’ll be able to create your own posts.
We hope Staples students (past and present) find it useful.

There are still places in next Sunday’s (9/19) Westport Kiwanis Minuteman Triathlon. I encourage any Staples swimmers who would like to compete to register this weekend before the race fills up.
You can register for the triathlon online at active.com.
Hope to see you there,
