Gloucester Township Students Among Camden County's Best Class of 2014

The Camden County Freeholder Board will honor 228 senior students who attend 34 public and nonpublic high schools throughout Camden County as “Best of Class of 2014” during the 16th annual awards presentation.

The presentation takes place Tuesday night, May 6 at Collingswood Grand Ballroom/Scottish Rite Auditorium, 7 p.m. The ballroom is located at 315 White Horse Pike in Collingswood.
