Before rap, cell phones, the space program, or The Beatles - there was the Fifties!

Remember drag racing and hanging out at the malt shop? Want to relive those innocent days of going to the Sock Hop and the drive-in on a Saturday night? It's the summer of 1956, and how teenagers lived and loved and played, when James Dean was the coolest and rock 'n' roll was the only music worth listening to, comes to life in Moments to Remember 1957. In a small town in the Midwest, at Indian Falls High School, we meet the greaser and the misfit, the farm boy and the girl next door, and the dreams they thought were "made in the shade." Here's a slice of American life - both good times and bad - that will have you digging up your old 45s, sipping on some cherry Coke floats, and wondering what happened to all the friendships that were going to last forever.

June 1956, was the beginning of the summer break for the students of Indian Falls High School. The orange rays of the sun were warm, and the trees were in full bloom. Smells came from the flowers, the green grass waiting to be cut, the green leaves on trees, and the distinct smell of white beans and ham cooking on washday Monday.
