Mary meets her mama & other folks.


Mrs. McGuire
 "Hello, I'm Mrs. McGuire and my husband runs this garage." 

Imagine Mary's suprise in meeting her 20 year old mother in a scene from a 1926 Todd reenactment called Timbertown.  There were historic Todd folks dressed in period costume and appearing at most of the historic locations in town.  Annie & Walter Cook, Ruth McGuire, Eleanor Moretz and Leona Worley were just some of the roles played by future elementary school teachers from ASU.  At each station - Depot, garage, post office, bank, general store, bakery and more; a student actor played the part of a local figure and presented a bit of the rich history of Todd as it was in 1926.
