Do they ever look at their school class pic and remember their time in Sandwich? I've tried to find some on Facebook but so many of the women have married or very common maiden names.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30172845.post-35175544953617494582018-01-08T21:21:18.518-05:002018-01-08T21:21:18.518-05:00I hated rope climbing too JoJo.

Between the ancient plumbing/heating and asbestos that's probably still in the ceilings or insulation, it's not really fit to be used by anyone for any reason. The cost to fix it is more than the cost to demolish.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30172845.post-79604342406315668272018-01-07T21:21:01.995-05:002018-01-07T21:21:01.995-05:00going back to own elementary school is a thrilling...going back to own elementary school is a thrilling experience.. but when I read that the authority is going to tear it down I really feel sad.. :)krishnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14415543228464576537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30172845.post-3570072092799132842018-01-07T18:13:54.761-05:002018-01-07T18:13:54.761-05:00I so wish they would've given me a pass!

Then they had it open a couple summers ago for anyone to take pics before it was locked up but it was on a weekend and the traffic was murder. That's why I jumped at the chance to go to that holiday market last month!JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30172845.post-11524429932403416352018-01-07T17:47:49.583-05:002018-01-07T17:47:49.583-05:00glad you had a final tour.
