Downtown Broseley was filled with friends, families and former residents Saturday morning in celebration of the annual Broseley Homecoming. This year marked the 50th class reunion of the last class to graduate from Broseley High School before the district's consolidation into Twin Rivers in 1970. Look for more photos this week in the Daily American Republic.
