Re: William Howard School Outdoor Speaker System

I went around the grounds last night after the school day because the gates were open, and I discovered that there are in fact 9 speakers in the system. It was very cold, I spent over 15 minutes walking around taking photos; it was hard to get a good shot because the speakers were literally shaking ...

I have...
