For the Blackstones twenty four years seems like
yesterday! It was Monday September 9th 1985, the
signpost at Njenka read: "WELCOME TO CPC
BALI." The 36th batch of students who eventually
formed the Blackstones, set foot on the campus of
Cam-Pro-Col. In the years that followed (five for
some and seven for others), the students were
confined to the walls of one of the greatest institutions of learning and development in Cameroon.
In the beginning, it seemed like leaving mama and daddy was bringing nothing but hard
times .Some of us even contemplated quitting school.
However, as the years passed , we enjoyed the
support provided by each other. This support and
togetherness eventually led to the creation of the
Blackstones. This group was very dynamic and
creative, we entertained the student body during
saturday evening 'socials'with dramas, poetry, music
and stand-up comedy.
We were privileged to be served by three of the most 'powerful' principals: Mr. A.N
Sumbele AKA Bond, LT Rev.Dr Ndingwan AKA Pasteur,
and the first ever lady principal
(interim) ,Mrs. Daniel Pricilla AKA Ma Ndro. This class
also had one of the strongest student
governments led by the late Ambe Bernard (Tybalt).
The goals of the 'Blackstones' include among others to:
(1) Maintain the relation of members with CPC Bali and each other.
(2) Help raise funds, contributions in order to support the activities of BOBA(TONLEC,WHP).
(3) Award scholarships and other grants to deserving students of CPC Bali
