More To Come . . .

With the publication of Arcadia Publishing Company's Images of America series book about Modesto, we'll be adding some of that content to the website, with the following items as well:

• Schools - from the 14th Street School to Modesto High School and more, almost all of them have an individual story.
   

• More People - a city doesn't grow by itself, it takes citizens to help the growth happen and to accept the inevitable expansion in population and size.
   
• Arts and Entertainment - early entertainment, Rogers Hall, the Lyric, the Modesto Theatre, the Strand, the State or the Covell - or the LaLoma - movies in an old Quonset Hut . . . they were the forerunners of today's Brenden and Regal Theatres, and there's a story to be told about each of them.
   
• You'll want to hear about the Modesto Symphony, Moband, Modesto Little Theatre, Modesto Youth Theatre and much more.
   
• And the upcoming Gallo Performing Arts Center, slated to start construction later this year.
   
• And of course we'll devote some space to Modesto as it is today - with its influx of Bay Area commuters and the growth of Modesto into a major metropolitan area.
  

So stay tuned for more
Historic Modesto!
