"Field Day"

Title

"Field Day"

Description

One of several photos probably taken at Field Day 1954. The annual event generally included athletic activities such as archery, softball, relay races, and tennis, along with various "novelty events." The band pictured here was likely intended as one such event.

This image is part of a collection of snapshots likely taken by Virginia Moore or her friends with a personal camera during Virginia's time as a student at Mount Mary College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin (1953-1957). The snapshots were printed on Kodak Velox paper. The captions are primarily based upon information found on the back of the original photos, most likely written by Virginia. Some images had no information at all and individuals or events are identified based on other captions and information available in the Mount Mary archives. Captions in quotes are verbatim from the original images.
