New Campbell County
School System Website for 2009-2010
During the summer
of 2009, the Campbell County School system began implementing a new County Schools
website system which allows multiple people on the faculty and
staff to create, edit and update pages for the new website. This allows the
school to totally control and edit the content of their own website now. During
the 2009-2010 school year, the new school website expanded and matured and has
been a big success. Having multiple people within the school system responsible for various sections of the website
allows for quicker updates of those sections, since they can be updated directly
by the school faculty and staff.

they can be included on BHSBees.com |

Message from Larry Lewis, owner & editor of BHSBees.com
I have owned and edited BHSBees.com since September 1996, when our daughter was
a sophomore at BHS. My wife and I are also both Brookville Bee alumni. The website
has always been ad-free, and family-oriented, and it is our donation to the
Brookville students, alumni and parents and the Brookville-Timberlake community.
Over these past 14 years, I have done all of the editing and site maintenance.
My wife has mainly provided patience as I put quite a few hours into keeping
the website updated - even while on vacation! The average amount of time spent
on the website historically has been about 10 hours a week. It has been a labor of love. I also
have paid for any expenses. The main expense is the domain name and hosting fee
which are not that bad.
I have unlimited space, and the website is hosted by Yahoo servers.
On May 1st, 2009, I was diagnosed with a rare form of Non-Hodgkin's B-Cell
lymphoma (mantle cell lymphoma), which is very difficult to treat, and is the
most aggressive and deadly of all lymphomas. Only 5% of
lymphoma cases are this kind. There have been only 14 cases in Central Virginia
since it was first classified as its own unique type of lymphoma in 1991. The 5 year survival rate is only 50%. Starting May
29th, 2009, I began a series of chemotherapy treatments by IV. You can read more
about these treatments and my current status on the Status Updates page (link
below). This disease is normally not curable, and even if
you do get into remission, it normally comes back within one to three years, and
then chemo treatments may not help.
The timing of the new County School website has provided a lot of relief for
me, and at the perfect time. I plan to continue the BHSBees.com
website as long as I am able, and
I hope that the BHSBees.com website will continue to be a useful tool for the
Brookville-Timberlake community, the students and alumni. You can also keep up with
my progress on my Facebook website:
www.facebook.com/larryandsusan or write to me
directly at
LarryAndSusan@bhsbees.com. (I am also working on creating a Blog
where you will be able to subscribe to email updates on CaringBridge.org - but it is not yet ready.
I will let everyone know when it is ready, and I start using that.)
