This photo is from the April, 1980 editionof the Shawnee Powwow student newspaper at Bridgeport High School showing, as the caption says, the school's all-state choir members. Do you remember any of these individuals?
Ever wonder what the A&P stood for in the A&P Grocery Store chain? This photo of an A&P in Grafton from 1963 gives you the answer. The store was a staple nationally for more than 156 years before finally closing its final shop.
