When the Harriman High School Class of 1953 came to town back in August of last year to remember their good times, they did not forget the memories of the Princess Theater. Before their reunion party, they brought their memories and pompoms down to the Princess to cheer on the efforts to restore a part of their school days, and their hearts! Imagine how happy they were this week to find out that the Princess Foundation has been given $1.7M to do just that.
We would like to thank Freida Breazeal, who now resides in Marietta, GA, for the lone of these reunion photos. Although she only makes it back to Harriman a couple of times each year, she keeps up with Roane County and the Princess progress. She also never forgets to send Mayor Chris Mason and Gary Baker letters and emails of thanks, like the one printed in the previous post. She had faith and confidence in those supporters that have fought hard for the past 9 years to get the Princess, and the associated complex, fully funded.
It won't be long before the Class of '53 can have their reunions inside the Princess!
The Princess belongs to everyone, so keep cheering the work forward!
