The Chambersburg Area school board is reconsidering plans to renovate CAMS North and is now exploring new construction at CAMS South for a 7-8 grade building. While CAMS North is more suitable for renovation, CAMS South's proximity to the high school offers educational and athletic advantages. New construction at CAMS South would likely cost tens of millions of dollars more than renovating CAMS North.

Just left Hamilton 2, Cornerstone Church. Some stragglers now after having lines snaking through the building earlier. Was 3rd or 4th precinct in a row to say they had quite a few ppl surrender their mail-in ballot and claim they had never requested one.
It seems like most people went to the polls first thing in the morning. The last few Ive been at have been pretty dead. At the National Armory, Hamilton 1, the judge says 1500 of thr 2450 registered there came by noon. Everybody has been chill and friendly - same as other polls.
Salem UB Church, which serves parts of Greene and Letterkenny twps (greene 6, lett 2), is at about 55% turnout. The judge believes they've already had their busiest point and things will be steady here on out. Maybe 10 people came thru while I was there. https://t.co/snfE5FemOW
