Hello All - You've received Pat Gill's e-mail and are now checking here to learn more about this much - talked about but nothing - done yet book. The scope of the book is Tempe from 1950 - 1970 and will focus on what we loved and knew about Tempe. No title has been set, and we can't use a subtitle, but Arcadia suggested something like 'Tempe, Our Hometown,' or 'Forgotten Tempe.' But if anybody has a brilliant idea, now's the time to mention it. Well, the book is growing legs and if we can offer assistance, it will have all appendages and come to life. Here's the info you need to know: 1. We have contacted Arcadia Publishing about the project. They are willing to work with us and will not charge us anything to publish. 2. Arcadia has parameters that we must follow. A. No more than 10 chapters; B. At least 180 photos, and 3. A limit of 128 pages Steve Frizzell and I have come up with some chapter ideas, but we want input from others before finalizing the headings. The ideas we have so far are: Brief History of Tempe; Evolution of Mill Ave.; Tempe Beach; Town Characters and Famous People; Neighborhoods (we can divide this into several areas, each one a chapter); ASU; and ???? As for pictures, we want pics taken in Tempe that would hopefully show some recognizable part of Tempe, or in the neighborhood section, a picture of your house or some activity at your house. So dig through your old pics and have a beer with some classmates to help this project along. No deadlines yet, but the sooner we get started, the sooner we'll have our very own book. BTW, Arcadia will charge us half price for the books and we can order as many as we like. We can fund raise with the books, if we want. Half price is $11 per book. I can be reached on my cell at (480) 326-7570 if you have questions or ideas. Let's go, Buffs! Also, anybody with any extra time who wants to help, speak up! Authorship would be - Tempe High Class of 1969 - Phyllis
