Macks Creek High School - Senior Awards Night - 6 p.m. May 11th
Our seniors ended an amazing final year of High School with a scholarships and awards banquet. This event culminated the beginning of many bright futures for the 2023 graduating class of Pirates. The event started with a grand feast for our seniors, families and scholarship donors with catering from the Butcher Shop in Camdenton.
