FROM VINCE STATEN'S COLUMN IN THE KINGSPORT TIMES-NEWS, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 10, 2010
The Douglass Alumni Association is in search of memorabilia from the old Douglass School and from the Riverview-South Central Kingsport neighborhood. The items will be put on permanent display in the case outside the Douglass Community Room at the V.O. Dobbins Sr. Complex when it has its official reopening in two weeks.
Calvin Sneed says that in particular the Association is looking for old pictures of activities at Douglass High School; mementos of the school; old band uniforms, football and basketball jerseys, football and basketball equipment and band instruments.
Calvin says the group wants items that “reflect the mood of the neighborhood, the pulse of the community, and of course, the Douglass Tiger school spirit!”
If you have any items, contact the Association at douglassriverview@gmail.com.
