“We were about 12 or 13 years old at the time, around 1952,” Jeanne writes in an e-mail accompanying the photo. “I’m not personally in the (photo) but my job was to keep these pictures for our troop.
“Per my cousin Pauline Bonilla, who still lives in Oakley and is a walking historian of people, places and happenings in Oakley, some of these girls/women and their children still reside around that area. ... We all went on to attend Liberty Union High School in Brentwood together.”
Jeanne thought that some of Oakley’s old-timers might recognize the people in the photo, and then added, “Wow, guess what – I’m one of the old timers! … To all my fellow Girl Scouts, I say hi!”
