The Greene County Historical Society
At our Annual Meeting on April 19th, we were treated to a series of delightful reminiscences about life in Stanardsville and Greene in the 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s. Jerri Morris Tata and her daughter Kendall took us back to a time when ice-cream was 35 cents a bowl, and serious games of marbles took place in Court Square. Judy Fitzhugh Estes, talking about the 50s and 60s, had us all picturing kids roller-skating down Town Hill; between them, they sparked many more recollections from members in the audience. It was a wonderful afternoon, and we are hoping to have DVDs of the program to share.
