California Cadet Corps and Bear Flag

After the August, 2004 California Cadet Corps Reunion held at Camp Winthers, I visited La Sierra High School and discovered that it had been turned into a community center.  The school appeared to be in good condition, but some of the fences and gates were no longer there.  The swimming pool had been filled in and the area us being used for skate boarding.  For some reason the address was changed from 5330 to 5325 Gibbons Drive.  The following pictures were taken:
