Little Treasures |
|
| A seemingly disparate group of items from the BHS archivial collection come together in a small display located in the Board Room of the Castle. The grouping of these objects have several common bonds. The most obvious is their small stature. They are inherently precious as a certain degree of closeness is required in order to inspect them. They are cherished for the memories they hold for some, the nostalgia they evoke in others; and perhaps fascination for those unfamiliar with them. All of these objects were donated by community members who understood that something can be learned about the history of Bayside through these common, everyday objects. |
