time capsule tuesday – class of 1976

May 24, 2011

This blast from the past appeared on crothersville.net in May 2001. As graduation is rapidly approaching in the ville, I figured the timing was pretty good. If you’re from the 1976 class and aren’t in this photo, I’m guessing you didn’t attend the Alumni. I know you were busy. Probably.

Feel free to add NEW information — remember, while this was true 10 years ago, it doesn’t mean the info is true today.
