It’s Wayback Wednesday, sponsored by Pharmasave Huntsville!
This is not what social distancing looks like. Fortunately, these passengers were living at a pandemic-free time in Huntsville’s history. Can you guess the year this photo was taken? From the name on her bow, you can see that the ship in the foreground is the S.S. Dortha. Do you know the name of the other? (Photo: Muskoka Heritage Place)
Last week we shared this photo:
We didn’t have details about what was happening in this photo from the Ken Cline Collection at Muskoka Heritage Place, but Doppler readers were happy to fill us in.
This was an initiation activity at Huntsville High School in the fall of 1973.
Susan Godfrey tells us, “We were dressed as rubber duckies and we were wearing diapers as per our initiation instructions! The year was 1973…good times!”
Some of those in the photo are or may be (with thanks to Susan Godfrey, Teri Souter and Maureen McVittie): Cindy May, Jennifer Knight, Anne Sutherland, Cathy Grosso, Holly Chantler, Heather Gillis, Janice Rye, Cathy Manning, Maureen McVittie, Terry Lee Markle, Karen May, Lillian Lafave, Heather MacKenzie. If you can confirm any of these or others, leave us a comment below!
