PAHS - Monthly Meeting for November 2011

(updated 11-22-2011) NEWSFLASH -
Update on the Nov. 28th Meeting of the PAHS

There will be also a presentation given by Royal High School's FFA Chapter. Be sure to attend this meeting and not miss this opportunity to help participate listening to their presentation and supporting the local FFA Chapter with your presence.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE, that is what we got from the old pictures that came in for scanning at our September meeting. Some of them are shown on this site. Not only did we preserve some historical photos, but we heard some great stories to go along with them. At our November meeting, we are again inviting you to bring in old photos and historical documents for preserving them. We will scan them at the meeting and then at our next meeting, we will present you with a cd with them in an electronic version for safe keeping. Are your pictures old and crumbling around the edges? All the more reason to come and let us help preserve them. The stories we here while working on the pictures are very interesting. Check out more on the Waller County Historical Society site. Some of the newspapers on this site date back to 1918 and are very fragile. Using the same method we use, these have been preserved. Come out and enjoy the stories with us.
