On October 15, 2022, the Terrebonne Garden Club, in collaboration with the Terrebonne 200 Bicentennial Celebration, will dedicate and bury a time capsule in the Courthouse Square. We would like items that presently reflect our parish.
Some examples of the types of items we would like to include are:
Newspaper articles
Scroll or handwritten notes
Events
Money
Menus
Cookbooks
Essays written by local students on what Terrebonne Parish means to them or a typical day in their lives
Memorabilia from movies and reality shows (such as Cajun Justice and Swamp People) filmed in Terrebonne Parish
Roof shingle with newspaper articles from Ida, Gustav, and other hurricanes
Items from Houma Indians (Houma United Nations School), IDJC (Pointe Aux Chenes French immersion school), Finding our Roots
Tickets, pictures, newspaper articles, etc. from state championship games
If you or your club or organization would like to place a representation item in the time capsule, bring it to the library (large meeting room to the left as you enter) between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. on September 14 or September 21, 2022. Keep the following in mind:
The capsule is a 24" cube (2 ft. by 2 ft. by 2 ft.).
The item should be vacuumed packed or sealed in a zip lock bag.
If the item is a pamphlet/paper, please laminate it.
