There are some DVD's left over. WE will post how to get them soon. Also there will be a follow-up DVD or CD with late submitted photos and photos from the night of the event that Eileen O'Connor took or you folks submit. Send these to RonanPark@aol.com and Sammy at ks7iw7bos@yahoo.com Sammy has put 1720, yes 1720 old photos on the DVD accompanied by old music.
We still need your old photos- class photos, graduation Girl Scouts, Altar Boys,- any old memories to post and for a follow-up DVD.
We are still creating an ongoing photo scanning project of old neighborhood photos. These can be sporting events, group photos, team photos, family photos and more. So if you can send us your scanned in - digital photos by email we then can add them to the collection. If you can not scan them, then contact us and we will work something out to get it done and the photos back to you safely and in a timely manner.

Also, if any of you have any of Sammy's old photos, please get them back to him (you can get a copy as well). Memorial photos of our friends who are deceased are greatly appreciated.
