News and Scenes From the August 2015 Meeting: A Tour of McClain High School in Greenfield
The August 2015 meeting of HCRTA met in Greenfield, OH at McClain High School. The high school celebrated the 100'" anniversary of its dedication in September. Dr. Dan Strain, former high school principal, talked briefly about the school's history and then took us on a tour to look at the artwork throughout the school. After the tour, we went to the Konneker Education Center for our meeting. We enjoyed a delicious lunch served by Harold and Judy Schmidt of the Greenfield Historical Society.
