Browsing through some old photographs in my files, soon after the recent death of Wyoming History Day founder Dr. David Kathka, and I came upon this errant picture with the label, “1st Wyoming History Day, May 1, 1981.” There apparently had been an identifying label attached to the photo by tape, probably indicating that it went out with a press release from the Wyoming State Archives, Museums and Historical Dept. No photographer is listed, but it likely was the department’s photographer (Carrol Jones?) or the public information director at the time (Linda Fabian, perhaps?) Students pictured would be in their late 40s-early 50s by now. Several of my photos of the event once appeared on my website, but no longer, evidently removed over time.
