Calling All Clayton Businesses!
Tell us your Story!
In preparation for the celebration of Clayton's 100th anniversary,
we want to know about your company history...
what the early days were like, how you impacted Clayton, an unusual story, and your secrets to longevity.
We're interested in old photos and any artifacts you may have.
If you once had a business in Clayton, we also want to know all about it too!
The Leadership Clayton Class is seeking your stories.
Please contact us soon, so we can have the opportunity to talk with you. We're collecting histories to be published
in a new History of Clayton book for the city's centennial celebration in 2013.

Are you a sleuth...a wannabe historian?
The Clayton History Society seeks interested individuals to assist with a variety of projects, from research about
institutions and neighborhoods to collection of community stories from citizens. The group wants to know about people,
buildings, churches, schools, businesses, parks, and historic residences. It also aims to discover and copy for permanent
records a multitude of historic Clayton documents, maps, diaries, and photographs. Get involved and make a difference in
preserving Clayton's history for future generations.
If you own a piece of Clayton history that you would like to donate to the Society, please contact Sarah Umlauf at (314) 226-9893 or send email to claytonhistorysociety@gmail.com for more information or to inquire about volunteer opportunities.
Clayton Oral History Project
Call for Participants
The city of Clayton is partnering with OASIS and Sunrise/Clayton on the Park to encourage residents
and business owners to recount their experiences in Clayton. A trained OASIS volunteer
(retired media professional) will work with and interview everyone who wishes to record their
stories and memories. It's an important legacy for informing and educating others. Taping will
take place in a comfortable setting at Clayton on the Park. Participants will have a copy of
their Oral History, and a second copy will be provided for the Clayton History Society's collection.
Excerpts may be selected for our website and a future History of Clayton book. The cost for
both tapes is $50.
Call OASIS at 314-367-5700 to schedule a taping time. Please join us, as we capture and celebrate the details of daily life in our community.
