Chaffee High School Pennant

Once Hung in 3rd Floor Study Hall in 1930's

 

 

The Chaffee Historical Society is very pleased to have received this donated item from the Steve Cunningham family.

We received this item in September 2003 and we have proudly displayed this Pennant near the front of our museum.

Perhaps the best explanation of its history can be obtained from a written message we received from Steve Cunningham

I enjoyed your website and would like to add an important item to the Chaffee Historical Society.

I have in my possession a Chaffee Red Devils pennant that hung in the study hall on the 3rd floor of old Chaffee High. This pennant hung there from the late 1920's until a fire in the 1930's and all articles from the study hall were removed.

In the late 1960's I found the pennant stored in my grandmothers attic. I have had it in a cedar chest since then, and only shared it with my children and grandchildren. The Cunningham family has been a continual member of the Chaffee community since 1911.

Please display as you see fit, because it really belongs to everyone that passed through the "Halls of Ole Chaffee High".

Steve Cunningham, Class of 1962.
