End of the year “catch up”

December 28, 2016 by Reno

You’ll re-enjoy the big ol’ section called “Cliffside in 1922.” It was a dazzling year for Cliffside, when both the new Memorial Building and the school building were dedicated. There are speeches, profiles and news stories and, as an added new attraction, we’ve put the year in context with the 1922 section of Don Bailey’s book Cliffside, North Carolina: The First Half Century.

Remember six-man football? Never heard of it? See Don Bailey’s (again??!!) survey of the game; when, how and where it was played. Don’t miss “Football on a Smaller Scale,” a brand-new addition to Remember Cliffside.

Another new offering in this update is “My Time in the Town,” Benjamin Bailey’s memories of his youth in Cliffside.

One more thing, last call for calendars. We still have several of the Roy Lee Harris 2017 Cliffside Calendars left (with 25 photos of people and places). Just send $10 (plus $3 for mailing if you’re not from around Cliffside) to “Calendar,” 10612 Round Rock Rd., Charlotte NC 28277.”

The Cliffside Clock Tower

Our town clock was installed in 1920, and for over half a century tolled the quarter hours from atop the R. R. Haynes Memorial Building. When the building was razed in the late 1970s this new tower for the old timepiece was erected on the site of Mr. Haynes' original Cliffside home. Although the property of the county, the Cliffside Historical Society has assumed responsibility for maintaining this beloved antique.
