Field Day 2021 will take place June 1–June 7 with a week-long broadcast of our Field Day performer videos shared on Facebook and CMC’s website.
Field Day is CMC’s extravaganza of music and community with a school-wide Performathon, raising money for scholarships and tuition assistance, and celebrating our beloved institution and the visionary founder behind it, Gertrude Field.
Strike up the BANDwidth, because we want YOU to be the stars of the show! Getting involved takes three simple steps:

To watch Virtual Field Day, go to CMC’s Facebook page for noon broadcast of our talented community of performers! We’ll share more schedule and program details as we get closer.
The Field Day Performathon is like a walkathon. CMC students and faculty sign up to perform and ask family, friends, neighbors, and/or local businesses to sponsor them by donating. All donations go directly to CMC scholarships and tuition assistance program. Performathon participants can either collect donations online or offline.
