“What does a 25 year old Box of Twinkies, a bottle of Chateau LaFite Rothchild French Wine and 46DDE size bra have in common?” asks Steve Jehl of the Georgetown Office. “They are all buried in the Georgetown Square Time Capsule that is to be opened June 22 this year. Each store in 1993 was invited to put something in the capsule on the 25th Anniversary of the shopping center.”
“Will the Timex Watch still be ticking? Will the Twinkies be edible? Did any of the grade school students predictions into the future come true?” asks Maureen Partee, Georgetown’s Event Coordinator. “We will have to wait and see!”
