Volunteer Groups Did Summer Maintenance At Our Local Schools, see any familiar faces?

            It has been common practice for many years to take advantage of summer time, when school is out of session, to catch up with maintenance of our school buildings.  This year (2016) there has been major work done at Sacopee Valley High School.   The pictures shown below show that the work was not always done by professionals, in fact, parent volunteer groups did a lot of the work to save the town money.  Here are volunteer groups who painted Kezar Falls school classrooms around 1949.  Nearly all of these folks have passed away, including the then young Donna Huntress.  Do you know the missing names?
