Photos
We’d love to see any and all the photos you’ve got. We do have some suggestions though…
• Largest file you have
• Names of all people in photo
• All information you have about the photo[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” inner_container=”true”][cs_column style=”padding: 0px; ” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][cs_text text_align=”none”]
Clippings
We prefer scans, but we’ll take whatever we can get. Send us your newspaper articles, funeral programs, obituaries etc.
• Send us your largest file
• Please type up (in a separate document) any text that appears in the clipping so that we can just copy/paste [/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” inner_container=”true”][cs_column style=”padding: 0px; ” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][cs_text text_align=”none”]

• Please proofread and submit your final drafts in an editable format such as Word or TextEdit
• Try to find at least 1 photo to go along with your piece

Indexing
We need your help indexing all the scans and documents that we’ve compiled. As of right now the text that is not indexed cannot be searched for. If you’d help us out by typing up any of these articles and send them to us, we’d be so appreciative.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” inner_container=”true”][cs_column style=”padding: 0px; ” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][cs_text]
Eagle Project Ideas
There is a ton to be done in way of history around the valley and surrounding towns. I have lots of great projects and ideas if anyone is looking for an awesome project to do. I can walk you through my challenges and mistakes and give you an idea of about how many hours might be involved. Some of my ideas are:
• Resident histories from surrounding cemeteries such as: Juniper, Sublett, Elba, Albion, Almo, Raft River, and Stanrod.
• Collecting, scanning and indexing yearbooks.
• Collecting, scanning and indexing newspaper articles
• Rounding up and indexing Malta histories.
• Hunting down any remaining copies of The Inland Empire. This was a newspaper printed in Malta right around the turn of the century.
• Mapping out Malta through the years; which businesses and important places were where during the different decades.
• Interviewing Malta’s old timers and writing up historical pieces.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” inner_container=”true”][cs_column style=”padding: 0px; ” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][x_prompt type=”left” title=”Submit” message=”We’d love anything you got” button_text=”Send us stuff” button_icon=”envelope-o” circle=”false” href=”/contact-us” href_title=”” target=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row style=”margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; ” inner_container=”true”][cs_column style=”padding: 0px; ” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″][x_prompt type=”left” title=”Help Us Identify” message=”We’ve got a couple projects in the works and need your help putting the pieces together.” button_text=”I’d Love To Help” button_icon=”lightbulb-o” circle=”false” href=”/current-projects” href_title=”” target=””][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section]
