In response to a suggestion from Jennifer Thomas Simmons, the City has scheduled a final community photo before the deconstruction process begins, in cooperation with the Silverton Fire District and Dennis and Eileen Sherwood of Portrait Express.
Alumni of Eugene Field School, parents of alumni, former staff and frankly any member of the community (or beyond) who feels a connection to the school are invited to be in the photo, which will be taken on Saturday September 8 at 10am.
Silverton Police Officers and Silverton Fire District volunteer/personnel will help manage traffic and the site and Dennis Sherwood will be in the Fire Dept. ladder truck in order to get the best prospective for his photograph.
We hope we will be able to crowd everyone into one photo using the grass area, sidewalk, entry way, and planting strip but - depending on the groups size - may have to take a photo of more than one group.
The photo will be part of a planned display in the new Civic Center paying homage to the site's former use.
Please plan to be in front of the school no later than 9:45am. The former playground area will be open for parking during this time.
Hope to see a large group join us that day!
