GRADUATION AND ALUMNI WINDOW

I have to admit this is one of my favorite things to do, decorating windows for special occasions in Fillmore. It is fun to have theme windows and then hoping that people will stop and notice. The Graduation and Alumni Window was a success. The Annuals from Fillmore High School started with 1917 and ending with 1964 were a hit. I put my Class of '64 sweater on our manequin and my husbands Lettermans Sweater on another stand. Too fun, then all other collectables that I can never part with made the window a walk down memory lane.
And yes, people did notice. Graduation is important in Fillmore as it is everywhere and the Alumni Banquet every year is well attended, especially by Graduates from many years ago.
Now that Graduation is over it is time to think of a window for the 4th of July. This is a really big day in our little town. There is a huge vintage car show all day and the cars are parked up and down Central and the side streets. This year there will be around 350 cars on display. My husband has 2 of them registered, I think one is in my name. Soooo the window must be special. Photos to follow.

If you would have asked, I would have sent you 88-91. I'm sure patrick would have given you (or they are probably stored at your house) 84-87.
Take pictures of the windows and starting posting.
