HELPFUL HINTS

· If you did not save the newspaper from your baby’s birthday, your wedding day, graduation day, etc., you can call your local paper to see if it keeps back issues or can print copies from microfilm — if not, you can do this yourself at some local libraries.

· A quick trip to the local library can yield volumes of information. Take a lot of change to make copies from magazines and microfilm.

· Book stores, for a limited time, will carry copies of several 2004 year-in-review books. Many of these inexpensive books (published by Time, Entertainment Weekly, People Magazine, Chronicle, and others) are a great addition to your Time Capsule.

· Do you know any “pack rats?” Mom? Grandma? Maybe they still have 2004 fashion catalogs or other items of interest.

· Finish your Time Capsule as soon as you can, before details start to fade from your memory.
