Do you remember the "Teen Town"? That was a nice effort on the part of the city to make a place for us to 'hang-out'. It was around the corner from the police dept, (don't remember the street) just south of the McSwain Theater a couple of blocks on the west side.
It was a large building, up a lot of steps and a big open room inside with a couple of pool tables, and some chairs and tables.
Today being the day before Christmas, I remembered back when (pre-teen) I would be taken down there and see Santa Claus and get a mesh bag of Oranges, Apples, Brazil Nuts, etc.
And in our AHS days, we could have sock hops and just mess around there. Ah, what fun TVs, VHSs, CDs and VCRs have taken away...but not the memories.
