At the end of April, exercise science and athletic training students from South Salem High School were treated to an experience of a lifetime at the Nike Sports Research Lab on the Nike Philip H. Knight Campus in Beaverton, Oregon. Students got to hear from researchers how they use sport science to inform the development of Nike athletic products and experience the science through hands on activities.

You are cordially invited to join us at Boddy Manor in the Rose Auditorium for the classic Whodunit: Clue (High School Edition).

CLUE is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth – the butler - Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out … WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!
