[Ansteorra] Children's Activities of days gone by

[Manners, Tabitha]

I want to say thank you for all of the information that is being passed
to me both on and off list about children's activities from the 80's and
early 90's.  I am really enjoying hearing your stories and tales of
individual activities and arrangements as well as the 'organized'
activities.  Thank you all so much for sharing.............and yes, I'm
still interested in hearing more. ;)
