Youth on The Move in Hillyard…Part 1

by Luke Tolley & Dave Griswold

In the past couple of weeks, the history lesson that is Hillyard has been renewed once again. Students from Shaw Middle School visited the Hillyard Heritage Museum to learn more about Hillyard’s past. They then roamed the streets of our town querying Hillyardites about their community’s history in order to complete their assignment. Who was the first Mayor of Hillyard? What was the name of the original bank in Hillyard? What year did Hillyard become a part of the city of Spokane? The students spent several hours and visited many shops, but were successful in completing their assignment and learned a lot about their neighborhood in the process.
