Yesterday, Jay Stream Middle School opened three 50-year-old time capsules! They were buried in the walls of the school almost exactly 50 years prior, on November 17, 1968, when it was known as Roy DeShane (the schools switched names when what is now Roy DeShane was built in 1974).
The burial was originally done in collaboration with the Carol Stream Woman's Club, who attended the opening, along with current and former students and administrators, Carol Stream dignitaries including Mayor Saverino, and even some Woman's Club members from the original burial!
