Sapulpa Showcase (September 2018)

 Artifact(s) of the month.

It's that time of year again. School is in, class-reunions are marked on the calendar, sports and activities are being planned, music and school-plays are in practice. Here's glance at memory lane in your school days. These are a few B.C. (Bartlett-Collins) glasses on display, showcasing Sapulpa High School, its teams, the reunions, banquets, and all the memories.

*Bonus* Seen in image two, "Sapulpa High School, circa 1950s," do you see a small little bump in the road? It kind of looks like a speed bump, right? In a way, it is like a speed bump, but not entirely correct. It's nickname is "frog." This frog is actually a stop sign. It is a small speed bump with the word STOP painted in the middle - and it laid in the middle of the road. That's kind of strange, right? Well, if you take a trip to Miami, OK, there is still a "working frog" in one of the town's residential streets.
