Description

Photographic negatives of events at the Snow School Read-A-Thon. Per the Photo Request Information, Principal MaryAnn Salinger told the students if they read fpr 128,000 minutes during the school's reading challenge, she'd dress up as "Waldo" and enact a search for "the top of the world" in front of the assembled school. They read 130,000 minutes so this will happen and she will be happy to be photographed at it." Also notes that a limo came to take the top 8 readers to Ben and Jerry's for a Vermonster sundae. Negatives depict kids at the event, the principal dressed as Waldo on top of a play structure shaped like a globe, and the limo arriving at the school and departing with the top readers. 66 shots.
