“Every year, the leader of the CCC (Knoxville Catholic’s spirit section - Crazy Catholic Corner) leads the final cheer and send-off at graduation just before the cap-toss,” said Pam Rhoades, director of marketing and communications for KCHS. “Major Hollin led the group this year. It’s a mix of ‘rah’s’ side to side (like a rollercoaster) and the chorus of ‘Don’t Stop Believin’’ by the band Journey, followed by the cap-toss. It’s really fun to see.” - Photos by Kelly Kearse, KCHS
