Results from a poll last year resulted in 21% of alumni voting for SJHScamden.org as a proposed new web address for this site.  Through donations made to the web site, finally the name was purchased and applied to the site.  Now you can refer to SJHScamden.org in conversations, e-mails and publications.  The old address will remain active for a period of time.  When accessing the new web address, you do not re-register, but will have to log in again.

In case you haven't heard, St. Joseph Church is saved from the latest round of church closings, mergers and consolidations!  Under the announced reconfiguration, there will be 38 merged parishes, three parish clusters (involving six parishes) and 22 stand-alone parishes. The reconfiguration, when fully implemented, will bring about an overall reduction in the number of parishes from the current 124 parishes to 66 parishes.
