Sevastopol TV's Laddie Chapman and crew are working on an important project -- a history of Sevastopol's K-12 school, originally erected in 1922. The school is being torn down today to make way for a modern facility.

The Sevastopol Historical Society with a group of volunteers has been working diligently for many months to preserve the memories of the last 100 years by gathering pictures and interviewing past teachers and students and other local residents. One interviewee just marked her 100th birthday. Laddie was able to find some 16mm film from the 1930's that he hopes to restore and digitize.

Thanks to the Town of Sevastopol TV and its videographers, the historians also have 20 years of videos in digital storage that can be incorporated.

Sevastopol TV has agreed to collect the material in one place and edit the film, pictures, interviews, and video into a feature and archive.

It's a big task, but an important one. They won't get a second chance!
