This is a new memorial that was added to Ayer's Field. One of the former Outlaws picked up rocks from the destruction of the old school building. He had no idea just what he would do with a truck load of rocks but just the same he picked them up. Finally the idea came to build a monument at the football field with the rocks. Several of the guys got together and planned the monument, the plaque, the basic design and finally got to work and built it.
This is part of the old rock school building that held such fond memories for so many of us. It was built during World War II. Much of the building material was used and the rocks were gathered in an effort to save money in the building of the new school. No matter what materials were used we loved that old school building and hated to see it destroyed. It is nice that some of the rock remain and a reminder of the past.
