ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS

Happy Wednesday, Eagle Nation! A good Wednesday is a day when we do things well. It's Tax Day!!! Hopefully, everyone has them done.

The JV Baseball game got rained out in the top of the 3rd, and will be completed as part of a double-header when they go to Northville.

Today is National Remember the Titanic Day!!!!

On this date in history:

In 2019, the iconic Notre-Dame Cathedral caught fire during a restoration campaign, and the blaze destroyed most of the cathedral's roof, the 19th-century spire, and some of the rib vaulting. A restoration project began almost immediately, and the cathedral was reopened to the public in 2024.
In 2013, near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, two homemade bombs were detonated in the crowd of spectators; 3 people were killed, and more than 260 were wounded in the terrorist attack.
In 1912, the British luxury passenger liner Titanic sank en route to New York City from Southampton in England, after striking an iceberg during its maiden voyage. Of the approximately 2,200 people on board, some 1,500 people died, with the ship's crew and third-class passengers experiencing the most losses.
