Time Capsule Unveiling at Richfield High School

Richfield High School is opening a window into the past—and we want you to be part of it!
In 1976, a time capsule was carefully buried at Richfield High School. A plaque on the building, recently uncovered after the removal of a tree, revealed the instructions: “To be opened on May 14, 2026.” Now, 50 years later, we’re honoring that promise with a community celebration to unearth and open the capsule.
