A little nostalgia

Several years ago a Facebook posting prompted Don Snodgrass to search for a video filmed in Mount Morris in 1957. He finally found the below video buried in an old archive and decided to post it here. Watch it closely and you will recognize many familiar faces including Lou Behrens who plays the part of the hired recreation superintendent. Superficially, you may find it corny at best. Nonetheless, it reminds us just how fortunate we all were to have lived it.
