Anyone remember being a member of the school patrol? Decades after this 1975 or 1976 photo taken in front of a Rambler station wagon was taken, the program is still going strong. This photo shows fifth grade student Kenny Nichols on the corner of Virginia and Worthington. The top of the Bowstring Bridge can be seen in the background.

Need a little shortcut? In this 1990 photo it shows the ferry transporting a vehicle and its passengers from Sistersville into Ohio.
