100th anniversary of Wright Brothers flight
12/17/03

  Members of Pegasus and the Student Library Assn. celebrated the 100th anniversary of the famous Dec. 17 flight of the Wright Brothers with a special program in the library on Wednesday. Everyone listened as Pegasus member, Dan P.,  spoke on the significance of the Wright Brothers' invention, and then watched as Mr. Jeffers, Pegasus club moderator, flew a replica of the Wright Flyer, which he had assembled, from the library ramp. Students from both clubs, who were standing on the top library level, then sent colorful, styrofoam planes flying all over the library. The presentation capped a month-long library exhibit on the Wright Brothers and aviation history.

As part of our celebration of the Immaculate Conception, we dedicated a statue of the Blessed Mother.
