Justin and Betty Capaul address Coeur d'Alene High School students Tuesday after opening a time capsule created by members of the Class of 1950 during their 50th class reunion in 2000. Justin's grandfather, Ray, was the 1950 student body president. Written instructions taped to the capsule said Justin, a 2000 grad, was to open it this year.

Coeur d'Alene High opens capsule of treasures from Class of 1950
A "C" chenille patch, state track medals from 1949 and 1950, newspaper clippings, photographs and a brick from the original Coeur d'Alene High School on Seventh Street. These were among the treasures revealed Tuesday when a time capsule left by the class of 1950 was removed from its protective cage and finally opened. “It’s exciting,” Class of 2000 graduate Justin Capaul said. “It’s an honor to open it on behalf of both classes, the Class of 1950 and the Class of 2000.”
