Everyone!!! Last week, we put out a call for pictures of students (any generation) and Cassity buses. We have gotten many great submissions and would like for ...you to dig a little deeper and see how many of you out there have pictures specifically of a bus that Frosty was driving. I know that there are a lot of us out there! The only bus I ever rode was Number 5 and Frosty drove it. I know a lot of Edgerton students might have pictures, if you wouldn't mind digging and posting them here for me. I am hoping to put a display together for the Grand Opening of our museum on the 28th. See more

If anyone out there has pictures of themselves, their children, grandchildren, etc. catching the bus to go to school (specifically a Cassity bus) we would appreciate you sharing it with us! The family is to be honored at Reminisce Days and they will be featured in the display at the museum.If anyone out there has pictures of themselves, their children, grandchildren, etc. catching the bus to go to school (specifically a Cassity bus) we would appreciate you sharing it with us!
