A lot of memories went up in flames September 12th when the older portions of SOSS were destroyed. Included in the loss were many artifacts.

The SOSS historians are now trying to collect as much as possible from former students and grads. The owner of the above annuals has donated these to the cause and many others have done the same.

From the list supplied below you can see where the needs are.

“What a great start ! In just three days we have secured the following years:

1946, 48, 57, 59, 64, 66, 86, 87, 89, 90, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 2000, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09. We also have a lead on 1949 to 1954. Could you please drop off the ones you have at the SOSS Temporary Office at the School Board Offices – Cheryl Andrews is in the Old Hedley Elementary School and I will ask her to collect the annuals that people bring in. Thanks very much for your support and interest !” – Ian
