SHELTON GAELETTES' 50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
We would like to congratulate the Shelton Gaelettes on their 50th Anniversary!
October, 2012 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Founding of Shelton High School Gaelette Basketball--in fact, of the entire Women's Sports' Program at Shelton High since, before Gaelette Basketball, there was nothing.
