Support our Thunderbirds - Peyton Reynolds

Support our Thunderbirds
by Peyton Reynolds
“Let’s go Panthers, Let’s go Panthers, Let’s go Panthers!” This is the chant we hear at every sporting event from our fans from the community. However, I think sometimes we forget that we have two amazing schools in our community, CHS and CCCC. It is a blessing to be able to live in a town that not only has a great high school but also a great college. Our community is so supportive when it comes to supporting us, Panthers, but we need to give just as much support to our Thunderbirds also.
Having a parent that works at Cloud County Community College, I realize that Cloud needs just as much support from our community as our community gives the the high school. We have many students who attend CHS, but their parents are part of Cloud in some way. Some of you may have noticed that some of the CCCC students and athletes come to many Panther sporting events. It is time for us as Panthers to return the favor and support the CCCC students and athletes.
Kids from all over the world come to Cloud to participate in sports and other activities, but not all of them have their parents, best friends and family on the sideline or in the stands supporting them. We all know that everyone needs support.

Not only do we need to support the athletes and students but also the coaches, faculty and staff. Eric Gilliland, CCCC’s Sports Information Director, has set up Cloud sports pages. To keep up-to-date on Cloud athletics, go follow Cloud athletics twitter page @CCCCsports and go like their facebook page “Cloud County Athletics”. Also, CCCC has just gotten a brand new website, “cloudtbirds.com”. I would like to wish all Cloud athletes and coaches a big good luck this year! I’m sure they would love to see more of the community support.  Go out and support the T-Birds!
