Fellow alumni members, friends, and supporters, as the year 2022 draws to a close and we are actively participating in the festive season of Christmas and other holidays in the month of December, on behalf of the CEO, our Executive and Advisory Boards, we extend a heartfelt Merry Christmas to the entire Cambridge family in Guyana, the United States, England, the Caribbean, and the rest of the world; may the season bring you peace, joy, unity, and comfort.

As we bid farewell to 2022 we recall that it was a year with its share of inexactitudes, as things did not always go precisely as we wanted them to go, however, the one important attribute found in the Cambridge family, was our steadfast and unshaken belief in a merciful sovereign God who has never left us, and will continue to provide us with all of our needs and wishes now and for the coming new year, 2023.

Fellow alumni members, friends, and supporters, on Thursday November 24^th, members of our association will join in and celebrate the festivity of Thanksgiving. We will have the good fortune of seeing family and friends who will travel countless miles to celebrate and feast with us on this day that transcends peace, happiness, togetherness, and the bounty God has favored us with. Interestingly enough, evidence abounds that the first thanksgiving tables displayed deer meat, shell fish, cornmeal, dried beans, and bean casseroles; the paradisiac turkey came some years later as an additional center-piece adornment. This progression suggest that adding other delicacies to a Thanksgiving table is both normal and acceptable.

The Executive Board and Members of the Cambridge Academy Alumni Association International (CAAAI) are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Mrs. Constance Yvonne Samuels, (September 6, 1936 – August 26, 2022), beloved sister of our association’s Legal Counsel Mr. Denis Baird, Esq. and alumni, Vilma, and the Baird brothers.

A Funeral Service is scheduled on:

Saturday, September 10, 2022
Visitation: 10:00 a.m.
Service: 11:00 a.m.

Good Hope Union Methodist Church
14680 Good Hope Road
Silver Spring, Maryland 20905

We pray with the assurance that Constance Yvonne Samuels has gone on to receive the glory promised by our Almighty God to all His children; and that Jehovah will provide peace, love, and comfort to the entire Baird and Samuels’ families at this time.

Dear fellow alumni, friends and supporters, welcome to our August 2022 edition of the CAAAI President’s Message. It is summer (in most places), and many of you have taken the opportunity to travel long distances to be with family and friends, especially after two summers of being cooped up at home due to the Covid pandemic. In spite of high gas prices and many air-flight cancellations, in true Cambridge style you rose to the occasion and boldly visited your loved ones, or they visited you in the summer of 2022.

Be assured that your association’s Executive Board Members and Committee Chairpersons dabbled in some recreation time also, but we maintained our commitment to leadership, supervision, deliberation, and decision-making by keeping scheduled Quarterly Meetings and many Committee Meetings online during this season, as required by the CAAAI bylaws.
