A group of Gen-X boys celebrate Field Day, 1979. One sports a Pabst Blue Ribbon T-Shirt, which would definitely not fly in schools today. | Field Day 1979
I have so much fun with the sort-of-daily photo on Facebook, but I often forget to cross-post them here! Earlier this morning I posted a picture of Field Day 1979 and someone cleaned the photo up a bit. I am not a fan of editing vernacular photos but I love what Chase did with this picture. It looks like a movie poster. Iconic!
I previously posted about Field Day in April 2021 and May 2020. Check out, 1980s Scrapbook With Field Day Ribbons, Church Ribbons and Field Day Photos From Long Ago.
My former vice-principal is now a member of my congregation, and we were talking about how the school building had changed. An auditorium was added in a spot that used to be “smoker’s corner” … for *students*
We both shook our heads in amazement.
