Former Odom Elementary students, staff dig up early-2000s time capsule 08-07-2026
Photos of former Odom Elementary students and staff members digging up a time capsule at the campus on Friday morning, Aug. 7, 2026. Students in Sharon (Henslee) Siebern’s fourth grade class of 1971-72 (when the school was called “Colonial Hills Elementary) originally buried a time capsule in 1972 and unearthed it in 2002 to find that the plastic container had caved in and was filled with mud. Members of the class, along with Mrs. Siebern, buried an updated time capsule in 2002 using PVC pipe and dug it up this morning.
