On the evening of Friday, December 18, members of the Procter family, friends, and Cougar fans joined together for a spaghetti dinner, a night of basketball, and remembrance of a Clarksville Academy elite athlete from 1974, Mr. Greg Procter.  CA’s annual 44’s Night at Procter Court raised over $6,500 to add to the existing total to the Greg Procter Endowment, giving this endowment a total of $21,000.  This event was a huge success and truly special to the Procter family and Clarksville Academy.  We thank everyone who joined us on the 18th and everyone who contributed to this endowment.  The Greg Procter Endowment will assist many students in their educational journey and we look forward to 44’s Night at Procter Court each year.  If you would like to make a contribution to the Greg Procter Endowment, please visit Marketplace at www.clarksvilleacademy.com.
