Hello all going through the old posts and such I have noticed several people ahve talked about the yare working on books, all seem to be some sort of history book, (right up my alley), So i was wondering who all and at hte very least what type of books are being worked on around here. I find all this stuff that has happened around here in the past very interesting...I my self not being a born and bred Elk Countian...lol, I am working on something myself but not a book, as you can see im not a writer but would like to do a web site on the history of the old schools that no longer exsist and their activities that took place, not the school itself but the activities, sports, drama, band and such......ALSO who do i need to talk to about joing the Elk County Historical society

I use this web site alot when i go over Ks History in class, I spend a few weeks going over county history so, seeing that i have only been in the county 16 yrs i use this site to supplement my teaching.

Hello all,

I am looking for old team pictures and uniforms from the "good ol days" basically im looking for items from school here in Elk County that no longer exsist...aka Howard High, North and South Elk and Grenola. Also im looking for old game results...

I have gone through old yearbooks but i am lookingfor the actual pictures so that i can scan them and print them off myself, uniforms to put with the other old uni's i already have.

I would like to put together a list of team football and basketball pictures going back as far as i can.

I have all the West Elk football team pictures from 1985 through the present so if anyone has old team football pictures from 1973-1984 that would be appricaited as well.

any individual pictures from some of the "start players would also be helpful, So if anyone can help me find these things it would be great you can contact me here at the house or at school.

Thanks again

Jim Madison
