Do you know when this photo was taken? The Shamrock Motel is present so that means the image was shot before 1980. The “new” hospital opened in 1959 and high school opened in1961. There’s no Kinsmen fountain, so the date can be narrowed down to pre-1965. What year was the band room added on to the high school? Contact archives@salmonarmmuseum.org.
