The photo seen on this page is a mystery!
This is one of several photos that came to the library in a donated box of yearbooks.
The yearbooks range from 1950s Posters (Painted Post yearbooks) and North Stars (Northside High School) to several Skjod Yearbooks (Corning-Painted Post West High School) from the 1980s.
This photo, which shows a group of young kids in what I believe is a local setting, was one of several photos that fell out of a 1952 North Star yearbook.
So the local history mystery is to answer three questions!
1. Who are the kids in the photo?
2. When was the photo taken?
3. Where was the photo taken?
