Private boarding school Canyonville Christian Academy activities department decided to make the game of basketball a little more interesting. 

A group of donkeys were invited as special guests allowing our students to ride them while playing a game of basketball.  As the donkeys were brought in by their riders, shouts of laughter could be heard in the gymnasium as one of our students Serge Sandrali, laughing himself, tried to “guide” his donkey into center court.

For about an hour and half, the girls challenged the boys to a basketball game played while trying to commandeer a stubborn donkey and make a basket from it’s back.  In the end, it was the Varsity boys basketball team, with their competitive edge that ended up winning the night’s game of fun donkey basketball.

Canyonville Christian Academy activity

Spring break flew by for Canyonville Christian Academy students and teachers.

Everyone had a good time going different places and doing different things.  This year, there were two separate trips.  One large group flew to Los Angeles and enjoyed places like Disneyland, California Adventure, food, shopping, the beach, etc.  Another group enjoyed a quieter time at Shelter Cove in Humboldt County, California which was relaxing and enjoying home cooked meals by Mrs. Botsford and Ms. DeLisle and the beautiful black sands beach.  They then drove through the California wine country down Hwy. 101 to go to Six Flags theme park near San Francisco, California.

Students are now back and ready for the final two months of school.

We start April off with “Spiritual Emphasis Week” with former teacher Dave Nickodemus as our guest speaker.  He was always a favorite teacher for many students and will surely have a lot to say to our students.

Spring break is in the air!

The weather is warming up with a lot more sunny days here in Oregon.  Track season has started here at this boarding school and these high school students are getting into competitive condition every day after school.  Tennis players are also working hard on the tennis courts to see how far they can make it this season.

For spring break, many of our students are flying to Los Angeles to go to Disney Land, California Adventure, the beach and other area attractions.  I’m sure they will go to a mall or two for some serious shopping!

Canyonville Christian Academy and the Harlem Globetrotters

Fun Activity with the Harlem Globetrotters

Friday February 22nd, students, teachers and admin of Canyonville Christian Academy high school went to Matthew Knight Arena at University of Oregon in Eugene to watch a lively, talented exhibition game with the world famous Harlem Globetrotters.

It was a lot of fun to watch the amazing skills of the Globetrotters.  They were funny and had us laughing with their antics and we were awed by their moves and throws with a basketball.  As a special treat, the whole boarding school was invited down to the center court where the Oregon Ducks play their home games.  The students of CCA got to meet the Globetrotters and take photos.  After this event, we all headed over to Skateworld for a night of roller skating.

Spirit Week ended with the Canyonville Christian Academy Pilots winning their last home basket ball game.  For the seniors here at the Christian Academy, it was a bitter sweet time since it was their last game in the Robert Shaffer gymnasium with faculty and friends cheering them on.

The student body voted for their favorite classmates for homecoming court who represented seven different countries.  During half time of the homecoming game, the princes and princesses walked out into the gym.  Cheers were echoed all through the gym.  Joe Chen was announced as King and Mafe Raad was crowned as the 2013 Homecoming Queen.  The whole homecoming court looked beautiful.
