On Thursday, December 19th, we will say Farewell to the Easton Gym. The Easton Gym holds a special place in the hearts of many from the community, and we are looking forward to closing out this special place with a small ceremony. The ICMS Boys' Basketball team plays that evening against Olympia starting at 6 p.m. We are planning to have a short presentation that will take place prior to the tip of the 7th grade game. We would love to see a huge crowd, and rock the Easton Gym one final time.

Today, Illini Central students gathered in the gym for Meet the Cougars. It was a great way to recognize our fall and winter athletes and inspire the future athletes! Mr. Burks called down all of the bitty ball players, and we are excited for the future of IC sports! #WeAreIC
