Photo Archiving Project


Group members are kindly assisting with the Crossroads Photo Archiving Project. This is Graham, busily scanning old photos that have been in storage for decades. The photographs document the history of Crossroads via thousands of snapshots taken during various programs throughout the years. Obviously the plan is to preserve the history of the organisation and to scan all of the photos so we have an accessible digital database of images. Still remaining are boxes upon boxes yet to be scanned...


Not only do we have photographs to archive, but also old Super 8 films!


Crossroads has always kept up with new technology, so once Super 8 films were no longer in fashion, fancy modern recording devices were embraced.


Many of us were excited over the discovery of this cute Polaroid camera!
