Bear Watch at HBHS
May 12, 2016
Last week, administrators spotted a bear roaming around closely outside the building. The staff made an effort to keep all students safe and sound within the school.

We [Andrew and I] had many opportunities watching burial ceremonies, the gathering of family and service members, the presentation of the flag, and the 21 gun salute,” said Robin Giaconia. “They gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country to provide the freedoms we have today.”](https://cavchronline.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Memorial-Day-Ceremony_Rory-Klauber_News_Photo-475x317.jpg)
