Historian pieces together 100 years of Castle Rock yearbooks
Written by Evan Blackwell, CJE
Jerry Kelly of Castle Rock, Wash., calls himself an “armchair historian” and he recently set out on a project to take 100 years’ worth of old Castle Rock High School yearbooks and put them on a CD for anybody who might be as interested in the school’s past as he is.
There are highlights from 78 yearbooks included on the CDs Kelly has created. And due to his love of history, Kelly told the newspaper he’s even thought about working on similar projects for other schools in his area.
“What I’m hoping for, if nothing else, is to inspire someone else to think ‘I’d like to do that for my school.’ “
