Dorothy Herring Tallon sent this photo. Guess who's in it...and guess where the photo was taken. (Put your answers in the Guest Book )
This photo was taken on a campout near the Country Club. It's dated May, 1957. Who are these crazy people anyway?
Here is the Corning Public Schools 8th Grade Class of 1955-56. Does anyone remember the name of our favorite teacher, pictured in the top left-hand corner?
Hey guys, remember what we wore on freshman initiation? Hint:One person in this photo said his costume was a real drag! The others...well, they'll have to speak for themselves at the Reunion! *See more about freshman initiation below.
Here is a real classic! It was taken during one of those infamous slumber parties at the Beemers. Who is the "mystery person" lying upside down on the couch next to Judy Alford? Your guess is as good as mine!
Delores and Virginia check out resort property in Corning.

Anyone want to guess what this bit of memorabilia is about?
Check out the shoes, dude. And the cars!
