You forgot to mention Yorktowne Cabinetry, just one of the numerous wood-working plants in town.Cabinets and furniture are another reason RL stayed on the map. Yorktowne is one of the main reasons I bought a house in RL.-Easy commute to work.

I know. I would have included that in this film, but I was working within a 3:30 to 4:30 time window. I couldn't film more without losing points.

I was in the junior high from '93 to '94, Segro was the vice principal back then. Being the rebellious teenagers we were back then, most of us thought he was a mean old butthead, but looking back now, he was pretty friendly and approachable for a principal. Too bad he's mostly remembered for his death and not his life.

I remember hearing that the former Red Lion Cabinet Co. made all the wooden radio cabinets for the Philco Radio Corp. in Philadelphia during the 1930s. Can anyone from Red Lion confirm this for me?
