What is Davis Community Scrapbook? (formerly Davis Snapshot)

Davis Community Scrapbook is a collection of short stories, anecdotes, songs poems, photos and paintings, all about Davis

We have collected over 100 submissions from Davisites ages 7 – 97 and hope for hundreds more.

We all have stories to tell and as we share, we will know more about Davis and have a better sense of who we are.

We recommend:  To start, click on Song Stories under navigation on the left hand side, a more complete section than most.  We expect to have many more submissions loaded by the end of November, so please check back.  You can search by clicking on category or author.
