I would also like to know what happened to the books in the library and
whatever was in the museum!

Sure we are! My curosity with the trophies is that I wouldn't want them to
get burried somewhere! I would hope that they get displayed somewhere so that
Michigan's history of the blind isn't lost. After all, many of us put our
brains and brawn into them.

There is a lot of history from MSB that no one knows where it went and that
is sad! We are all a part of that history also....

I'm particularily interested in trophies and such because of the history
attached to them. I got to thinking about them last night while I was
thinking about the fire at Carols Moms a couple of years ago. Virginia had a
couple of gold medals that were lost. She could get a certificate to prove
she got them but, the medals can't be replaced.

Well Larry, I too have wondered about what happend to the various properties
of MSB! I spent quite a bit of time in the library and would have liked some
of the books. I don't know about the trophies either. I am aware of state
auctions which take place several times a year, which could have included
furniture etc. Personally I do have the band metals with ribbons accumulated
through six years of band. Good question though Larry! Perhaps someone will
know as to where some of this stuff has gone.

Well, not to open the big debate of whether or not the school should have
been closed or not. It is! But, what about the smaller celebrity stuff? The
trophies that were won by our Raiders! I can see where a lot of stuff could
have went out to places to help teach others like all of the braille
equipment, instruments and all of the other stuff. And, someone could have
used it! I sure wantedd one of those piccolos! But, where did the trophies
and awards go? We had awards not only in athletics but also in band and
forensics and probably in things I don't know about! Are they on display
somewhere? If we talked about this, I must have missed something. The awards
may be the only things left of our history when we all fly out of here!
