WACOTS.ORG

2008 was also the launch of www.wacots.org. The offical archive and repositry of the Wayne County Training School. It hads now been 15 years since the first internet of the school was created. Since then we have never stopped learning and recieving new infornation, picures and stories of the school. It has been over 90 years since the school opened and we now have a permiment record that will never be extinguished as the State of Michigan and County of Wayne had intended... One spring evening in 1982 I recruited two of my friends to infiltrate the grounds. There was not much developement in the area yet. A lone "Speedway Gas Station" sat on the Southwest corner of 5 Mile and Sheldon. The lights of the PLymouth State Home could be seen. We chose this as our parking spot. We made our way across Sheldon Road avoiding any aproaching headlights. It was easy to get on the property being a lack of adequate fencing. We made our way towards the staff residencies sticking close to the buildings..
