There's a Taree Catholic High School bikeathon, trots featuring local rugby league club players in sprints and bargains out the back of a truck (owner Joe was later 'moved along' by council). Other photos include a pantomime (possibly by Taree Arts Council) and a fete believed to be at Taree Presbyterian church.
We have been delving our photo archives and while every picture tells a story, sometimes the background to that story is lost.
Which is why we are asking our readers to help. Do you recognise a face, a venue, an occasion? Feedback and shared memories are most welcome.
Visit the Manning River Times website at 6pm every Wednesday to view the latest gallery in the series.
